Love is…
for one’s children - an overwhelming feeling that you could easily die in their place, that nothing you ever felt before compares; that miracles are indeed sent from God (as are your children)
for one’s spouse - security, trust, comfort, passion, best friend ever
Loving someone means that they can disappoint you in ways that others similar behavior would never affect you; you have high hopes and expectations of the ones that you love, yet you would accept their best efforts if it did not meet those expectations
