And as he is, so are we.
If God is love, then I am love.
A perfect expression of it too.
Albeit, still manifesting in the physical.

Goodmorning grin

Certainly............ That is what being created in his image is about.

But we have chosen to accept that we are not god-like.

After all his kingdom is in us....

One thing I know is, my powers are limitless............

If my father is almighty............

Then I should be mighty @least, right?

If God is love............lipsrsealed


I rather wish you a happy new month.

[font=Georgia]Love in its simplest definition is a strong feeling of affection or endearment toward another.
1. Yes, it resonates and I think it fit in so well except the repetition of the word ''love'' ... In the above definition the problem of ''how to love perfectly'' usually ensued because when two imperfect beings are in a relationship then what consitute the perfect love ?

2. No, you aint getting it , it is not as if these girls don't have a lovely and caring dude who has everything a MAN should have but yet , her heart and soul aint his but someone-else like a ''BrokeAssNigger'' then we will all think wow, she's crazy .... Yeah , cuz Love is crazy cheesy

3. But Love knows no bad nor Good (That is the issue) ..... Extending the gesture to another person your heart,body and soul so chosen brings the fulfilment in itself and until you express it regardless of reciprocation or not , you will be incomplete ..... That is why it is tagged ..... For better for worse right ? cheesy


4. You already crowned this chat when you gave love to be strong feelings of affection/endearment towards another ..... The only thing your definition never do is to differentiate lust/infatuation ...... Which you have duly acknowledged but I still think your definition should be reflective of the difference between the two which you cited to be TIME ... Then I'm obliged to ask :

How does time comes in, why time and what is time as the difference between love and lust/infatuation ?


5.wow, Wisdom and rationality in ''LOVE'' ?
The the very core meaning of love would have been defeated and this is exactly why we don't have love around any more except for few because everybody has been attaching wisdom and rationality to it in avoiding disappointment and any slight slack, dude/gal will just jump-off in order not to be rip-off ..... ''I love you'' is just a ringtone nowadays since wisdom and rationality has been attached grin


6. Some people find love in the reverse of the above attribute , it may be psycological issues but some girls just love a battering dude abi you never read about it before ?


7. When you used the word ''we are all striving towards one form of ideal or another'' then I disagree on the generalisation .... Not everyone infact majority aint striving and that is the reason why we have many loveless relationship nowadays ..... Because we aint striving and those that does aint well appreciated !!


8. The whole essence of marriage is to love as creator loves but we are human and we can never love as creator loves and that is why I said Love is a quality that only few are priviledged to attain for its enormous requirement of sacrifice and endurance : in pain, gain, summer and rain


9. No, I disagree ! Love has totally collapsed in 95% of worldly spheres even the religion which should be the primary source of LOVE has been bastardised terrorism/extremism and Immoralism which fires lustfulness thus eradicating love is at increasing and alarming rate then I wonder where C.S Lewis is working assiduosly to expunge the corruption involved in LOVE


10. We won't reach the perfection of love in this earth again maybe in the garden of Eden when GOD would have reprogrammed our Soul and separate those capable of loving from those to rot in Hell with lust and/or hatred !!

ThankYou !!

MizMyColi:
There might not be a next time.
Sometimes, when you lack the words to express a thought process, referencing is never a bad idea.
That's when Love becomes a decison.


Agreed!
There might not be a next time ahaha cheesy
Expressing in our own understanding shows our depth of knowledge of issues under discourse !!

what I really wanna understand is how the concept of time determine Love, Lust and Infatuation and why you think Love is more of a Decision than Emotional-feelings ?
Re: What Is Love? by LogoDWhiz(m): 11:28am On Oct 01, 2014
MizMyColi:

The bible clearly defines love. Even if it's in a romantic setting, that's what loving should be all about.

More oft than not, the things we define as love are mere infatuatory feelings which we mustn't make any tangible decision(s) based on.
Trust me, feelings change.


Hmm. Nice perspective.
Love can confusing at times tho.

I have this view about love, i think u can truly experience love in a romantic setting kindof, if you are in a relationship with the person u claim u love.
U can truly say u love the guy/lady, if after discovering his/her flaws and incapbility, and u still love them for who they are. To me, that's when u can say u truly love someone.

I believe you are having a nice day.

MizMyColi:
You feel alot of things too.
Love is a decision, beyond the feelings.
Feelings Change.
but Decisions do not change ? grin grin cheesy

Bringing the concept of God into ''LOVE'' will even make Love to be more profound than enough !!
