What Is Love?

Love is complex and changes with time. The Greek words capture its different sides, romantic, friendship, selfless, and family love. It’s more than feelings; love shows through commitment and care over time.
". . . .love shows through commitment and care over time." I like this! Love shows through. Love is a manifestation of actions, words, attitudes, values, and beliefs.

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
 
Love is seeing beyond your own PTSD . And I might add,that can be tough for some People, And given the situation. There might be abit of mental challenges to do that .
Sorting the differences, When you might have try to Love past anothers serious PTSD
aswell. And loving enough to know when the other needs room to grow, and relearn ideas of safety❤️‍🩹
Love is knowing when to allow another ,To learn their own Life lessons .And being compassionate enough to know when to endure,and when to make that same space again. For both persons sake. And that can be the hardest part of a Love. 🩷 Perhaps
 
Hmm, I guess it changes depending on the recipient...
I love the natural world, it inspires and creates a sense of awe in me, I'd go to great lengths to protect it, I feel like my authentic self when I'm with animals, in a forest, beside a body of water etc. I feel connected to something bigger and ancient.

Romantic love, has that same theme of connectedness, its a light that fills every part of me, where my best self exists.

I know exactly who I am and what really matters to me when I feel romantic love, there is no internal noise or distractions just the meeting of two souls. A type of oneness with another, a balance of two distinct people making space for the other to relax, feel safe and show up exactly as they are.
 
So when the Question is asked, Are we asking of love between two human, Is that Eros. or Agape Love .? Or Love a Nature ? a a Scenic veiw. A flower about to bloom,in. the morning light . Even a entire garden of flowers .
