I have and it is a beautiful thing to feel it's power. Love can do so many things in a persons life. Open your hearts if you have not felt it and let it power in.
Here is a very powerful thing that came into my email and it packs a powerful wallop.
Enough Love
"There is no difficulty
that enough love will not conquer;
No disease that enough
love will not heal;
No door that enough
love will not open;
No gulf that enough
love will not bridge;
No wall that enough
love will not throw down;
No sin that enough
love will not redeem. . .
It makes no difference how deeply seated may be the trouble, how hopeless the outlook, how muddled the tangle, how great the mistake — a sufficient realization of love will dissolve it all. . . if only you could love enough, you would be the happiest and most powerful being in the world."
—Emmet Fox
Love is not just a romantic feeling to be celebrated with hearts and flowers one day a year. It is a dynamic power to be used 365 days out of every year, used without ceasing. The power of unconditional love enables us to live joyfully, abundantly and in peace, healing every dis-ease, correcting every malfunction. May this day of love serve as a reminder to all humanity that when we are willing to love without limits of any kind only then will we be able to live without limits, as well.
May you always be willing to love without limit.

Love is a wonderful experience. It is a new breath of life and a rejuvination of sorts. With you learn much about yourself and can share in a union of a special progression. Also with love you can endure all things.

while true love is a great blessing,it can also cause great pain when taken away.
I and my girlfriend at 18 years of age,were fully in love and making arrangments between us to get married,a,family member did not think this goirl was good enough for me,(without me knowing how they felt),they waited till I was at work,and told my girl to go home to the farm as they would not allow us to marry,when I got home,I was so devistated,I went right out and joined the army,I still remember her so well,but we have never met again,and I have stayed single since.

I agree with you Sunshinelady Love is very Powerful.I can recall three instances regarding pets,where love served as the catalyst in their resurrection.To be fair,to myself and others,we are required to look at both sides of the coin so to speak.Love can also bring tremendous pain in regards to loss,etc.
Hate has served many to survive through trauma,bringing with it strength,allowing a suitable mourning period before being able to realign with love once again.Both add and subtract to any given situation.Unconditional love is exactly as defined.
Cheers

Yes, love has the power to effect major changes in a person's life. But that's the way we should live our lives - following our heart.
It's not just romantic love. There is also love for our fellowmen through acts of kindness and charity.

I have, once and it was great...I have never felt that way again. It was about 5 years ago and I've met this great guy who was the cutes the nicest and the gentlest man in the world. He was almost 21 and I was about a year and a half older than him. He was in my town for about a month and we spent that month together. He studied to become ship engineer so he had to do 6 months on the ship as a part of the studies. He lives 1500km from me and we were too young (and he was much too young) to bring some kind of decision that one of us moves to the country of the other one. So the relationship ended when the ship took off. He still calls me for my birthdays, and I know he had and has girlfriends after me and I had and have boyfriends after him but still when I look at the photos I feel something...it's pain and it is not love, but it's a memory of that special feeling I think one can experience only once in his life...so what was so different between that love and all other love(s) I felt for other boys? I know that that relationship lasted for 1 month only and the first month is always the best one...but for me, that way my month in heaven.

Love is much much powerful than hatred. Best example of its power is that Mahatma Gandhi won the freedom of his country only with love & non-violenc...
As Mother Teresa said:
Let us more and more insist on raising funds of love,of understanding,of kindness,of peace. The rest will be given.

Certainly. I have been married for 21 years to the most amazing lady. Last year I had a major breakdown and had to leave my well paying job. She has stuck by me all the way. Working hard herself and then coming home to find me a complete wreck. My daughter gave me fantastic support even though she was taking exams to get into University. My ex-work colleagues wrote me, e-mailed me and met me frequently giving all the support to me that they said that I had given them. I feel truly blessed.
