My picture of love.

It's a working definition.

Love is,

  • the gradual collapse of self-fears, insecurities, doubts
  • recognizing that what you have with that person is greater than you alone
  • feeling at home
  • vulnerability 
  • beautiful impermanence 
  • warmth in your heart
  • that spark of joy when you look up to see that person across the room
  • the diminishing of fear
  • letting go of different pasts that you thought might become futures
  • becoming more like Christ: rich in love, slow to anger, full of compassion, exercising patience, full of joy and full of life.
