People have the misconception that such a thing called 'love' exists in this world. So if love is so universal and all-powerful, explain murder and war. Explain why parents get a divorce for the sake of their own happiness above their kid's. Explain why people are constantly victims of an abusive relationship, falling back on someone who hurts them so much yet claims to not be able to live without them. Explain why teenagers allow themselves to get into a relationship based around frivolous human emotion rather than something pure and solid.
Love doesn't exists. There is no such thing.
Human minds and the emotions that project from each individual varies so much, how can one word encompass all the differences that come from each heart. One's definition of love is utterly different from another's, and the level of commitment that one is willing to follow through with love is completely different as well.
Love doesn't exist. There is no such thing.
But there is hope. Because although there is no such thing as love, there is such a thing as GOD'S love. Because God is the definition of love, and because he resides in this world and in each and every one of us, we are given the ability to project forth that love from within to others around us.
So what's my point?
There is no such thing as love outside of God's love. You can't just simply love someone, you have to love them by being a vessel of God's love, so that HE can LOVE that person THROUGH you.
God is love. There's no escape from it.

That is a really interesting take on the whole "love" thing. At times I want to believe in it and others I don't, but it makes so much more sense to describe it as an extension of God's love rather than our own.
