What in the world is Love after all????

Throughout the history of mankind, we have been trying to find what the meaning of love is. It’s the subject of endless poems and literary work. Many poets have tried to move their pen in attempt to find what love is, but in the end all of them thought of love to be complex, mysterious, difficult, and indefinable.

We’ve been given the impression that to define love is near to impossible. Maybe we like the mystery of it. But is it really that complicated? Perhaps the complications surrounding love come from all other things we add on to this powerful emotion. Let’s drop all the hype surrounding relationships and define what it is we are experiencing when we are in love.

Basic Components of Love
What do you feel when you love someone? If dissected down to its core. What will there be? What would those components be? Yes, love is an emotion, a feeling, a wanting, and a “being”. We know it feels good. So Here are the common denominators of love...

Love is Accepting.
Acceptance is labeling someone as okay and having no particular desire to change them. Who they are is absolutely fine with you. You don’t impose any condition on whether you will love them or not. This is called unconditional love. If you are getting into a relationship you shouldn’t get in it with idea of changing a person’s basic nature, because that never changes and later you will regret entering the relationship in the first place. When your love is conditional, the moment they step outside your set of conditions, love starts evaporating.

Love is Appreciating.
Appreciation is another branch of acceptance only. It’s when your focus is on what you like about your significant other half. We look at them and feel this sweeping appreciation for who they are, their joy, their insights, their humor, their companionship, their looks etc. When someone says they are "in love" with another, they mean their appreciation is so enormous for this person that it consumes their every thought.

 Love is Wanting Another to Feel Good.
We want those we love to be happy, safe, healthy, and fulfilled. We want them to feel good in all ways, physically, mentally and emotionally.
