How do you define love?

Well, when I was younger I read a lot of romance novels and I began to get this view of love that was very distorted. I thought it would be just as exciting as in the books I read and he would come and sweep me off my feet but when I least expected it. I basically viewed love with rose colored glasses.

Now I'm 29 and I have been through heart attack, I have been through a divorce and a remarriage. I'm happily married now and he's an awesome husband but it's not like I thought or viewed it when I was younger.

A few months ago I wrote down what love meant to me and this was the result (since I can't copy and paste this for now I will give you the link to my Multiply account where I posted it):

I hope you like it:-)

that was absolutely amazing! i couldnt have said it better myself. maybe you should have left it and saved it for a little later on because like me what can people say after that brilliance?? well done im very impressed! im sure there is more to be added maybe il have to get back to you with the bits you missed;)

personally i define love as the moment when you find that although you know your life is crap it is still perfect because your with that person that makes everything worthwhile. the person who also gives you a feeling of security and happiness at the same time. thats my opinion:)

l met a problem . the boy when he entered the classroom at first time .l was nevous .and gradually we sat together to share our ideas of life . actually l like him . l can feel he likes me .but the terrible thing is that he has a girlfriend .l only pretended that l did not know her .if l told my real thinking,if he parted with her . l did not want to hurt anyone .so l only chose to be sad by myself

ask a mother who loves her children... she can best define it
