BarrenPneuma: Love is an intangible gift surpassing all other gifts. It cannot be taken in any way and only has value when given away without conditions. It can not be held in any way that is not detrimental to its absolute ideal except in memory and in Faith.
Happiness is not something we can receive from others, we can share their own happiness but to have our own comes only from within. A helping hand can hold you up but you must stand on your own.
For life to be worthwhile we have to understand what life is and that is an individual journey that will take all of our earthly days. Life is not in the knowing but in the accepting and living to its fullest.
To best experience life, Love and Happiness all we have really to do is share and give it away as often as possible.
Our society has befuddled the conceptuality of worth. We have been fooled into believing that our true measure is in what we as individuals have. Not only in a physical sense but more perversely in an abstract way. Our true worth is in reality what we have to give. No matter how giving one is, if they only seek to pass on the physical remnants and achievements they will eventually run out of offerings. To give of your heart in all ways allows others to see the examples of happiness, Love and of course the grand wonderment of life. And in doing so is really the only way to have any sort of inner peace and completion of merit.
Life is contagious and we would do best by our fellow man and ourselves by ensuring that the epidemics we nurture and pass on are the ones that provide examples for those in our lives to best share what they likewise are.
Love your life and you will be happy.


Agreed... as usual thumbs up...excellent post hug

Without love and the things that love inspire what would be the point to life... there would be none.. beauty, music, art, our family, our children our pets... all these things.. love has its root in all of them and where would we be without them..

Gettin up.... goin to work.. feeding ourselves, keeping ourselves warm and just basically existing... perhaps mixed in with some hedonistic pleasure, which would bore us and make us feel empty eventually.... that all sigh

lucky200761: I somewhat disagree...so what your saying is that finding a mate is what life is all about?..other than that life is pointless ....there are plenty of ways you can have love and receive love in your life; family, God, friends, etc... If that's the only way you feel you can experience love in life than that in itself is pointless and lacks value...what about the people who choose to remain celibate?



I don't think that's what he meant. Some people don't like being alone and some do.

I say live and let live not assume something into what someone said.

We all have our own opinion on things and I'll defend anyone their right to have theirs.

Young lady you ability to contructively tear down the facade knowingly or unknowingly painted in words is what I expected from you here, yet I am oddly comforted by your hug. hug

I continually seek wisdom to bolster my own petty reserves and I know you have depth of character that belies your passive little self. Please do share, for you never know when someone's store of truth is lacking but a little nudge to draw them forth into the radiant blessings of understanding.
Truly a heart that resounds in symphony louder than the most explosive thunder from the heavens themselves. And all of this wrapped in so delighful a package. hug (OK the second hug is purely out of greed)grin

uhh i dont think lucky meant harm to Dknew. Both of them have their views which is respectable.
I think lucky was trying to discuss what Dan said from his perspective by asking a question. I dont think he meant to assume or attack.

So .. i think its all ok. Everybodys opinion is welcome and valuable.

LOVE AND HAPPINESS come from within and if u dont find it there it is unlikely you will find it anywhere externally............professor

For me it is.

Living on my own, doing everything for me only, leaves an empty feeling in my gut.
But if the match is not one I enjoy, that feeling would be worse.

So meeting someone AND be happy is the magic I need to feel life worthwhile.

I like this thread riya. I'll try and give my input tomorrow cause I really wanna. I'm running on 3 hours sleep and I had a heavy work out...so I am exhausted and running on empty.

I found some posts really interesting in how everybody expressed their perspectives of the importance of finding love in life. This is a really deep discussion that needs to be taken to the abyss of our collective sea....

Love begets love I am talking about the kind of love that weathers through it brings out the best in others. It believes all things, hopes all things and never fails. That is love. It may not be received perfectly but it is a deliberate way to be and it is very very strong.

I am one who needs love like I need air and water...and yet, it's not love that makes me feel happy and worthwhile. I already feel that I am worthwhile and I am happy...I just have an abundance of love to share, and need someone to share it with, as well as needing to curl up with someone at the end of the day. I am complete, I don't need a partner to complete me...I just desire a partner to share my life and love. heart wings

Therein lies the completion, though.

Yes...that's true. But it's a different type of completion. It brings a new depth to life when you share love like that. I have sons, I have friends and family, and I have dogs...but to share life and love with a partner adds another layer. hug heart wings

No, it's more like *soo* important, in my opinion.wine

Ask yourself this: Is it important - even necessary - to have other people in your life in order to achieve some measure of happiness? Of course it is. Love is simply the most powerful manifestation of our need to have social interaction, I'm thinking.heart1

wave My self worth is not judged on being in love. Life is what you make it. Looking back daydream the best years of my life were spent ALONE. I was happy and am starting to get back to being happy again. I think for some, love isn't part of their life's plan. I do believe I am one of those people. I embrace that notion---history has taught me that my assumptions are correct. To live without love is actually quite liberating. I am speaking of a man and woman type relationship.

As for the love of my friends, they are what helps the sun shine on the darkest of days. On the sunny days, all I want to do is romp and play with them. Without them - I don't know- I think that I would be fairly miserable. That is a different type of love.
