LOVE

             Every day we hear around us this word LOVE, but do we really know what this word actually means? Does someone is sure that feeling what we get inside us when we say that we love someone really means it? I believe in love. I really do. It's just sometimes i think what it really means. So i checked online, what i could find there, and this is what i found----->

"The word "love" can have a variety of related but distinct meanings in different contexts. Many other languages use multiple words to express some of the different concepts that in English are denoted as "love"; one example is the plurality of Greek words for "love". Cultural differences in conceptualizing love thus doubly impede the establishment of a universal definition.

Although the nature or essence of love is a subject of frequent debate, different aspects of the word can be clarified by determining what isn'tlove (antonyms of "love"). Love as a general expression of positive sentiment (a stronger form of like) is commonly contrasted with hate (or neutral apathy); as a less sexual and more emotionally intimate form of romantic attachment, love is commonly contrasted with lust; and as an interpersonal relationship with romantic overtones, love is sometimes contrasted with friendship, although the word love is often applied to close friendships. (Further possible ambiguities come with usages "girlfriend", "boyfriend", "just good friends").

Abstractly discussed love usually refers to an experience one person feels for another. Love often involves caring for or identifying with a person or thing (cf. vulnerability and care theory of love), including oneself (cf. narcissism). In addition to cross-cultural differences in understanding love, ideas about love have also changed greatly over time. Some historians date modern conceptions of romantic love to courtly Europe during or after the Middle Ages, although the prior existence of romantic attachments is attested by ancient love poetry.]

The complex and abstract nature of love often reduces discourse of love to a thought-terminating cliché. Several common proverbs regard love, from Virgil's "Love conquers all" to The Beatles' "All You Need Is Love". St. Thomas Aquinas, following Aristotle, defines love as "to will the good of another." Bertrand Russell describes love as a condition of "absolute value," as opposed to relative value.Philosopher Gottfried Leibniz said that love is "to be delighted by the happiness of another.Biologist Jeremy Griffith defines love as "unconditional selflessness".

Love is sometimes referred to as an "international language" that overrides cultural and linguistic divisions.'' [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Love]

So here it is. We will never know what really love is, how it looks like. Because one thing is clear for each of us it means something different. It can be butterflys in your stomack or even elephants. It can be pure and safe. But one thing i know for sure, when you love someone it is the most safe and unselfish thing in the world what you can have. So Love and let Love you.
