What Is Love?
A quote from Bell Hooks
Salvation:Black People and Love:
The capacity to love is so tied to being able to be awake, to being able to move out of yourself and be with someone else in a manner that is not about your desire to possess them, but to be with them, to be in union and communion

Love is being able to live with out someone, but not want to. Love is the feeling you get when you finish a task and you get that rush of relief, Love feels the same way. When all you can do is think about the other person that makes you who you are, and reminds you why you are the person that you've become. Love is beliving in someone when they don't believe tin themselves. Love is a union, but a union of two bodies, minds, and souls.
Healthy love can certianly be a self-affirming force. However, we must be aware of such variables as knowing yourself, taking responsibility of our choices, talking the same language as your partner, among others, that have nothing to do with love per, but have everything to do with if you ever attain it.
