Love - it is the first language that all people/races have in them that God gifted to all his creations....it can not be bought, sold, borrowed or picked somewhere....it is within us all and it is up to us how we will going to use it to communicate and share it with one another.....Love is so great and unexplainable feelings.........

(friendships) Love is a need that a human being has to fulfill to stay a life. Next to Food, Drinks, and clothes and a home. Food without someone to share with, makes you eat yourself to death.A home without someone to share it with isn't worth a dime.Clothes without someone to take them off for you, come on...that aint no fun...!!

Perhaps there is no one love. There are surely many different facets of love. There is love on the primitive and physical level (the erotic level), love in generosity (selflessness towards another), and love as friendship. The latter two seem to be love on a more emotional level, whereas the first is more physical than anything else. It would seem to me that erotic love has managed to manifest itself in modern society more than the other two, at least insomuch as the western media has demonstrated. But nevertheless, all three are needed in successful intimate relationships (assuming that's what we're talking about). Love's definition really depends on the situation and the relationship betwixt the two "lovers."
