The Purpose of Love
Is Not To Possess

For now, its nice telling
each other "I love you."
All the while having fears
and doubts, wondering if we
really do know what love
is all about.

For love is a virtue that
needs to be nourished to grow,
and love is caring enough
for another to be willing
to let them go.

"Love is the sharing
of a soft caress.
Love is concern
for one anothers
happiness."

absolutely, so many people think they fall in love, and then want to change that person, or, consume them with their beliefs, instead of realizing, this person might really teach us something?

I always ask, "What to you like/love the most about that person"? If someone can only answer, b/c of the way they make me feel...wull, unfortunately, those feelings will end, then what? If there is no more common ground?

Good intellect, wonderful write...
