LOVE....An Eternal Question...!




Love is too intense a phenomenon to be limited within a framework of words. Possibly the most talked about subject yet and the least understood aspect of human life. Love means different things to different people.Most misconceptions regarding love arise because we use the word "love" to describe our relationships with living beings as well as inanimate objects. As such, we are unable to differentiate between liking, desire, infatuation, admiration, want, need, lust and LOVE.

"I have fallen in love!" is one of the commonest statements heard. But in reality we don't "fall" in love. As most believe Love is not beyond the control of the person. It is an act of conscious choice. We don't just fall in love, but we choose to love a person or THE person."Loving" a person and maintaining a loving relationship are two very different things. Love just doesn't happen,we need to work for it. In fact "to love" is one of the most demanding jobs..
True love is the culmination of sincerity, wisdom, respect, affection, warmth, security, commitment and above all sacrifice, which makes it a permanently self-enlarging experience. Deep abiding love transcends time, age, future and past. When it comes to love, there is no time. Further, whatever age you were when you met your love, that is the age they will always see you as. No matter how old you are, as long as you are in love, you feel young...
