All you need is love, but...

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,

Being together in bad times.

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

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 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 excitement of planning things together,

The excitement of doing things together.

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

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 life...
