What do we know about love? Is it, as some people would suggest, a
mysterious force? Or can it be explained and possibly even created? Well,
even in this scientific and reason-driven age, love seems still to defy total
understanding. We can, however, know something about love and make
stronger connections between individuals.
One thing that seems to affect love is distance. The common idea is that
the love between people grows as they are separated. Sometimes it is true
that longing for someone who has gone overseas becomes more intense.

Something that nourishes love is danger. Send both lovers to dangerous
places and they will end up loving each other more. This could be caused by the
worry it develops. It could also be that feelings of uncertainty or need
transform into love with time.
Love gives us warmth, courage, and a feeling of being safe, but it also
demands selfless devotion and sacrifice. If you are truly committed to finding
true love, you should make yourself more interesting. Do things that you enjoy
and try to meet people who share identical interests.

Love is important because without it life has no meaning or purpose. Love
allows us to do more than we could ever accomplish without its power. So
often we take good care of our physical needs. We make sure our bodies are
fed, cleaned, clothed, exercised and rested. However, we tend to overlook
the most important need-love. Of course, as a society, love is not overlooked.
Popular media constantly places great emphasis on what we need to do to
attract “love”. But being loved is not as powerful an emotional need as that
desire to love someone else.

The need to love and care for others is built into us biologically. This need
is what allows parents to give up sleep and food while raising their children.
This need is what allows people to put themselves at risk to save others from
natural disasters or threats.
Love means to children, hold dear. and treasure. We do not hurt, or cause
pain to those we love; rather, we seek to alleviate their suffering. It’s not
about wanting to possess or control others; it’s about wanting to set them free.
Love is the power that allows the wheel of life to continue turning, for when we
love we look beyond our own needs and desires. We sacrifice our time, our
