What is love? Webster defines love as “a strong affection for another arising out of kinship or personal ties (2): attraction based on sexual desire: affection and tenderness felt by lovers (3): affection based on admiration, benevolence, or common interests .” Love comes in many forms. Unconditional love, the love of a mother for her child, romantic love, the love for your partner and passion or lust, a more sexual emotion towards a person. Love, although clearly defined gets interpreted by each person differently, it plays on human emotion and on human beings themselves.
Unconditional love defined as love with no conditions and without limits. Love of this stature, the most pure and simple, requires nothing but returns everything.
