It's consoling someone else's sorrows. Love is sharing all that you are, and all that you have with others. Love is a verb. Love is lived in action. Love, then, is an act of giving.
Love is a choice.
And for love truly to be love, it must extend to all. Love is never exclusive. Love is given to a spouse, to a parent, to a child, to a friend, to a co-worker, to a stranger. Love is given to God. Love is given to oneself.
