What is love ?
I am exploring that question

When I was asked by a lady friend to sum up what love was I thought of many of the aspects of life were love can be found and what love is all about .
So I sat for a while and thought about love and it came to me that love is more than an emotion . Love is many other things at well .

Some say there is nothing that’s older than time but I think that love is older than time . Love has always been there . Its that part of the universe that makes everything work . Since the first day life existed love was around .
Love created life .
Love is everything nice .
Love gives and love takes .
Love looks over our mistakes .
Love is richer than gold .
Love is young and love is old .
Love is a shared thing .
Love demands and love can bring .
Love is patient and kind .
Love is trusting , sometimes blind .

Love is many things and I could continue to list off metaphors but above everything else I came to understand that love is the most positive force we as humans own .

The love theme sells more songs and books that any other genre .
Poets and artists have found various ways to express love in the medium of their art form in every generation. The topics and themes poets and songwriters use frequently when composing thoughts about love in a nutshell are four . These are the most common themes you’ll find behind the lyrics of the most popular love songs every written .

Theme 1
Boys looses girl .

Theme 2
Boys finds girl .

Theme 3
Girls looses boy .

Theme 4
Girls finds boy .

So when ever you want to write about love give time to one of the above topics and you’ll find inspiration will flow .



With true love there is nothing conceded or jealous about the experience shared .
Love bring many things to a relationship .
Love also will take things as well .
