True Love - Defination

YA ya I know.. you all there are PHDs and SuperPHDs when it comes to commenting on Love... But this is something I stumbled upon while reading some stuff.. and really liked it and wanted to Share with you guyz...
I quote
"Every act of love brings happiness; there is no act of love which does not bring peace and blessedness as its reaction.
True love can never react so as to cause pain either to the lover or to the beloved.

Suppose a man loves a woman; he wishes to have her all to himself and feels extremely jealous about her every movement; he wants her to sit near him, to stand near him, and to eat and move at his bidding. ..

He is a slave to her and wishes to have her as his slave.

That is not love; it is a kind of morbid affection of the slave, insinuating itself as love. It cannot be love, because it is painful; if she does not do what he wants, it brings him pain.

With love there is no painful reaction; love only brings a reaction of bliss; if it does not, it is not love; it is mistaking something else for love. "

Hope it rings some bells inside you too...

even deeper than affection, contentment and hapiness..

Love is responsibility..if you are willing to sacrifice yourself for that responsibility and happy in accepting the responsibility of taking care of your partner..that is love..

Love is a commitment for the rest of your life together..

True love for humanity... or... True love for QL??

I quote

"you must know that it is all physical attraction between sets of particles of matter — something that attracts two bodies nearer and nearer all the time and, if they cannot get near enough, produces pain; but where there is real love, it does not rest on physical attachment at all. Such lovers may be a thousand miles away from one another, but their love will be all the same; it does not die, and will never produce any painful reaction."

The science behind the emotional pain... this was new to me...
