I’ve been giving this topic thought recently too.
I could write down what love means to me, but that in itself does not define love.
I do not claim ownership of love, that I can give it or take it away as I please, but I can misuse it, misrepresent it, or deny it completely.
I can put conditions on it...
Or I can not mess with it at all and let it do it’s thing, like endow me with compassion, kindness, humility and the rest of loves beneficial symptoms.
It’s best for me not to define love for it is not for me to define.
