What is love? Webster defines love as “a strong affection for another arising from 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, a mother's love for her child, romantic love, love for one's partner, and passion or lust, a more sexual emotion towards a person. Love, although clearly defined, is interpreted by each person differently, plays on human emotions and on humans themselves. Unconditional love defined as love without conditions and without limits. Love of this stature, the purest and simplest, demands nothing but gives everything back. The depths of the ocean, the infinity of space are only slightly comparable to the measure of unconditional love. Madame de Stael, a Swiss author embodies unconditional love in her quote “Love is the emblem of eternity; confuses every notion of time; erases every memory of a beginning, every fear of an end. (brainyquote.com) Love like this most commonly seen between a parent and their love for their child. Children misbehave; they receive punishment, but the love between parent and child remains. A parent wants nothing more than to provide for their child, to give them more than is physically possible. Although this quote "It is true, I speak of dreams, which are the children of an inactive brain, generated by nothing but vain imagination." Shakespeare Romeo and Juliet (1.4 97-99) is not about love, I believe that taking these words as written he is talking about pure love. In the translation “True. I'm talking about dreams, which are the product of a brain that is having... middle of paper... full emotions so often encountered, which lead us to both joy and sorrow. Lust tends to masquerade as love, but lusts like those of the devil both come from a common fabric, both are fallen angels of love. Never too cautious of lust, neither love nor romance is found within. As written by Paul Francis Webster "Love is a wonderful thing" (en.wikipedia.org), said love comes in many forms unconditional, romantic and passion/lust. When love is not interpreted with human emotions, love becomes as beautiful as the sun rising on a dew-covered meadow. Love by definition, a strong affection for another, seems so simple and precise, but it forgets to let the human element in, making it less certain and defined. Love affects all of us. Love's ability to break down walls, change the world, and bring joy to the eyes of a child makes love the most beautiful human emotion ever known to man..
