Love is a binding agreement I make within myself to look out for/care for, others, and myself, seperate from how I am treated, by what, or whom. Love is the emotion/idea that prevents myself from reacting negatively to negativity. By avoiding becoming a part of the cycle of negativity, I am best caring for myself, and those with whom I am associated.
To say that I avoid reacting negatively to negativity is not saying that I am passive, but, it is my choice to choose a positive reaction whenever I am able. Being imperfect, I am not always able.
