When the conversation comes to love, it always raise the biggest emotion, reaction and passion.

But,

What is love?

Love is that feeling you get when you meet the right person. This is how many people approach a relationship. Consciously or unconsciously, they believe love is a sensation based on physical and emotional attraction that magically, spontaneously generates when Mr. or Ms. Right appears. And just as easily, it can spontaneously degenerate when the magic just isn t there anymore. You fall in love, and you can fall out of it.

The key word is passivity. Erich Fromm, in his famous treatise The Art of Loving, noted the sad consequence of this misconception: There is hardly any activity, any enterprise, which is started with such tremendous hopes and expectations, and yet, which fails so regularly, as love. That was back in 1956 chances are he d be even more pessimistic today.

So what is real, lasting love?

Love is the attachment that results from deeply appreciating another s goodness.

LOVE IS A CHOICE

If love comes from appreciating goodness, it needn t just happen you can make it happen. Love is active. You can create it. Just focus on the good in another person and everyone has some. If you can do this easily, you ll love easily.

ACTIONS AFFECT FEELINGS

Now that you re feeling so warmly toward the entire human race, how can you deepen your love for someone? The way God created us, actions affect our feelings most. For example, if you want to become more compassionate, thinking compassionate thoughts may be a start, but giving tzedaka charity will get you there. Likewise, the best way to feel loving is to be loving and that means giving.

While there are many different ways to define love and there are many different ways to love someone or even yourself, here is a general guide to loving.

1. Say it. When you say the words I Love You , they should carry with them the desire to show someone that you love them, not what you simply want to feel. When you say it, make sure you really mean it and are willing to do anything for that special person.

2. Empathize. Put yourself in someone else s shoes. Rather than impose your own expectations or attempt to control them, to understand how they feel, where they come from, and who they are. Realize how they could also love you back just as well.

3. Love unconditionally. If you cannot love another person without attaching stipulations, then it is not love at all, but deep seated opportunism one who makes the most of an advantage, often unmindful of others. If your interest is not in the other person as such, but rather in how that person can enhance your experience of life, then it is not unconditional. If you have no intention of improving that person s life, or allowing that person to be themselves and accepting them as they are, and not who you want them to be, then you are not striving to love them unconditionally.

4. Expect nothing in return. That doesn t mean you should allow someone to mistreat or undervalue you. It means that giving love does not guarantee receiving love. Try loving just for the sake of love. Realize that someone may have a different way of showing his or her love for you; do not expect to be loved back in exactly the same way.

5. Realize it can be lost. If you realize that you can lose the one you love, then you have a greater appreciation of what you have. Think how lucky you are to have someone to love. Don t make an idol of the person you love. This will place them under undue pressure and will likely result in you losing them.

6. Never stop loving. Even if you have been hurt before you should not stop giving love.

You must love yourself before you can love another. But before you can love yourself, you must know and understand yourself profoundly. This deep understanding of yourself will automatically lead you to love yourself since you will become aware of your divine essence and you will also love every other person at that same moment because you will recognize that same divine essence in every other person.

The above is what I think about LOVE.
