What is the most important thing in life?

And what exactly IS love to all of you? How would some of you define it, in your own words?

I suppose it depends on who you ask, really. Personally, there is nothing I appreciate more than a well-developed story with quality characters. Traveling, exploring, and discovery are at the top of my list as well. Marriage, children, and a repetitive job seem rather bland to me, so perhaps I ought to simply travel more rather than engaging in life choices which disinterest me.

Finding ones place in the world, where one can strive, help others.... and be all the better for it

To know God.

Love in every and all forms.

My definition of love is complete and endless care and compassion for others. Always being as kind as you can, as helpful as you can, and as considerate as you can. Just... love.

My pet turtles, my dreams, and my imaginary worlds.

Unconditional love and acceptance for exactly who you are

My relationship with God

I think life is about your own happiness and spreading the good feelings towards others. Spreading warmth and comfort, or at least trying to. Giving and receiving love. Not denying yourself your pleasures so long as they benefit all involved, and living to a full extent. Making experiences.

At least that's what I think life should be.. Who knows, I've got plenty of years ahead of me (or so I hope).

I think its different for everyone, but for me, its peace of mind.

be true to myself

Always striving toward ACTIVE UNCONDITIONAL LOVE to others, and attempting to imagine I could be worthy of same.

@ OP--Beautiful thread!

“Do all the good you can.
By all the means you can.
In all the ways you can.
In all the places you can.
At all the times you can.
To all the people you can.
As long as ever you can.”
