W illingness to open your heart.
H aving hope.
A llowing others into your life.
T aking the time to share.
I magining a life of joy.
S haring your hopes and dreams.
L iving for peace and comfort.
O ffering kindness.
V alidating that all life is precious.
E arning the respect of others.
True love is all the above and more. It is not just the racing heartbeat or attraction of looks or physicality. It is the depth of the soul; not just the verbiage of the words.

@nanette64 I'm beginning to think us human beings aren't capable of living together in love and harmony on this planet.

@nanette64 I think we need a little love right now for the refugee crisis that is going on with Trump's latest executive order.

I have loved my Al for more than 50 years and he still makes my heart skip a beat but it is so much deeper than that. Lovely post.

That is almost a rarity anymore @BelleStarr (50). And it usually lasts that long for all the right reasons.

It sounds simple doesn't it... just a few rules to follow and all should be well. Sadly, most people don't bother.

Great acrostic on love. It is a lot more than a beating heart.
