~ Love Is ~

Love is ...

Love is
being happy for the other person
when they are happy
being sad for the other person
when they are sad
being together in good times
and being together in bad times
Love is the source of strength

Love is
being honest with yourself
at all times
being honest with the other person
at all times
telling, listening, respecting the truth
and never pretending
Love is the source of reality
Love is
an understanding that is so complete
that you feel as if you are a part
of the other person
accepting the other person
just the way they are
and not trying to change them
to be something else
Love is the source of unity

Love is
the freedom to pursue your own desires
while sharing your experiences
with the other person
the growth of one individual alongside of
and together with the growth
of another individual
Love is the source of success

Love is
the excitement of planning things together
the excitement of doing things together
Love is the source of the future

Love is
the fury of the storm
the calm of the rainbow
Love is the source of passion

Love is giving and taking in a daily situation
being patient with each
other's needs and desires
Love is the source of sharing

Love is
knowing that the other person
will always be with you regardless
of what happens
missing the other person
when they are away
but remaining near in heart at all times
Love is the source of security

Love is the
source of life
