What is True Love??

Recently I went for an interview, and the guys actually asked me to write this topic. The rules were pretty simple; write one page on the topic, research on the net if you want. time limit 1 1/2 hours. So I got down to business and found that it aint that easy writing about this 4-lettered word on a job interview. So this was what I turned up with. Enjoy :-)

What is love?

Mankind has tried numerous ways to define the true meaning of love. There have been numerous definitions on the meaning of the four letter word. Well, love has been a source of joy for many people. As Karen Sunde describes: "To love is to receive a glimpse of heaven." Everybody wants to fall in love and it seems to be the hot cake everywhere man of both sexes resides.

But, what is love? And is there a true love and a FAKE love? Love may be defined in a lot of ways, but there isn’t one definition that describes what each of us felt when we were in love. Here’s a great definition of love by an unknown author: "Love is like a violin. The music may stop now and then, but the strings remain forever." We have seen men and women conquer enemies, climbed heights, swim a thousand oceans all because of love. Is love that powerful? Love do seems to cross all limitations of science.

The Bible describes it best: Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, 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. 1 Corinthians 13:5-7. There would never be a more perfect love than the ones mentioned above, if man can only follow these lines.

So what is fake love or what love is fake? We find that the four letter word is being misused everyday for the want of physical desires. The term ‘Love’ may have been used in different scenarios without the true qualities of being in Love. This maybe called ‘fake’ love.

So are YOU in love? Simple signs are - this is somebody with whom you feel comfortable and enjoy spending time. This should be somebody you look forward to sharing an important experience with, and without that person, that experience would not be as special. Finally, you should feel that your life is fundamentally enhanced by having this person with you and when this person is not with you, you lose something meaningful. drDrew.com

Do you think of a person and just smile for no reason? Do you day dream about a person all day long? Do you blush when you meet that someone? Do you think about him/her before going to bed, does the thought of him/her keeps you up at night? Are you jealous just seeing him/her laughing away with someone else. We don’t have to tell you when you’re in love. You can always know when hit that spot. Cheers
