In The Game Called Love

Love is an eternal game where both players win. Although, sometimes... how could the players even play when they themselves do not know that they are even playing the game in the first place? There exists so many questions on Love that it's to the point of being innumerable, and one of the most popular being 'How do we know when we are in love?'. Just like the number of questions, there also exists a vast amount of answers for these questions. Even though I still do not completely understand the concept of love (really, does anyone of us truly do?), I know enough to focus on the part that the question mentioned above stated 'when', not 'if'. Because really, everyone one of us will definitely experience (and in return, give to others) love. That naturally comes with the fact that we all have the capability to love, the capability to receive love and to give love back. I think that that's truly one of the best things about true love (as cliche as it may sound), we are all capable to freely give to others our love. As they say, you can never force love. It just happens on its own. And also, another thing that I admire about love is that we all experience it even before we are even born. Ah, parental love, the first love we all experience. It is also the reason why we are even here in the first place, alive, and blessed with the capability to love. But I guess what I admire the most about love is that, in the eternal and never-ending game called love, everyone is a player.

'Reducing love to a game' is like reducing automotive traffic-operations to 'a video-game'---sure, some aspects translate adequately for learning-purposes; but ... Love is first-&-foremost the name of Our Father God (oh, He has many other names; and they are more-important names at different times, but Love is like 'if God had a LAST-name ... a FAMILY-name' ('Love' ACTUALLY IS a family-name--I went to high-school with a "Katherine Love"--but that's not the point.) Things done for the glory of God, then, are done "In the Name of Love." The 'Love' I think you're thinking-of (though it SHOULD BE in line with God's love---man & wife loving each other in support of their Godly missions) too-often is so self-centered as to turn them AWAY from God But I think if people focus on giving & receiving the love of God (or other loves, in the same way that Jesus showed us to handle it), the love of spouse will accompany you as it needs to.

Love means not only you enjoy other's merit,advantage,or even good looking, but also, more important, you can tolerate and accept their shortcomings.
