Love..........

A topic we all claim to know so much about. So, lets test the waters with this one shall we? Who out there in blogger land knows what love is? Who can leave a comment here for this blog explaining it? Does anyone have the courage to undertake such a bold dare? I think a couple of you might, if I know you all so well as I think I do. I have a feeling at least one certain individual will throw their 2 cents in. Here I shall shall wait for a bold soul to take my challenge.

To give you all a little help I have come up with some explanations of what love is by famous people. Lets see what they have to say.

"I never knew how to worship until I knew how to love" - Henry Ward Beecher

"True love is like ghosts, which everybody talks about but few have seen" - La Rochefoucauld

"To love another person is to see the face of god" - Les Miserables

"Love is but the discovery of ourselves in others, and the delight in the recognition" - Alexander Smith

"A very small degree of hope is sufficient to cause the birth of love" - Stendhal

"You call it madness, but I call it love" - Don Byas

"If you would be loved, love and be lovable" - Benjamin Franklin

So, there you have it. Many views on the word itself, lets see what you all think. Oh, and by the way, no cheating with more famous quotes. I want to hear what YOU think and feel.

Cheers to you all!
