What is love? Another version of Bobette Bryan's poem: When he's late you picture him running up to you and wished he'd hurry up. When you watch a sport that you don't really care for but you're willing because he enjoys watching it in your company. When he gets tired shopping, but he'll go shopping because he'll help you pick out your clothes, shoes and lingerie. When he does something stupid and you don't think the worst of him afterwards. When he does something that upsets you, he understands and does everything to cheer you up by being there after being absent. When you have news and he's the first person you tell in person or call to share it with. When after the KO'dragged out fight of the decade, you forgive each other in the end. When you've gone through many major life crisis and find when he's not only there through it, but remains there to give you further support, love and happiness. When despite what life usually throws at you- bills, car repairs, family crisis and loss of friends and materials, the passionate flame continues to burn. When he thinks you're sexy first thing with your smelly morning breath and dishevelled appearance. When there's commitment and comprehension beyond words that only and you and he will ever get. When the only thing you want is to lie there in his company in silence and you're happy to cuddle up together. When at the beginning of each day you still feel loved.     within each one of us, and let it begin with me (and each one of us)..one breath at a time. |

My rough translation of a Pinoy love martyr's song You're welcome to fix  I love you more than ever, much more than before Mas mahal na kita ngayon, higit pa kesa noon I love more now and all day Mas mahal nakita ngayon, at sa habang panahon I don’t care about the past Wala akong pakialam sa'king nakaraan Even when I become a laughing stock Kahit na ako'y pinagtatawanan What matters is that I love you more than before because Ang mahalaga'y mas mahal na kita ngayon Dahil... You’re no longer pushing me down the stairs Di mo na'ko tinutulak sa'ting hagdanan You aren’t putting poison in my food Di mo na nilalagyan ng lason ang ulam And at night when I’m fast asleep At sa gabi pag ako'y tulog nang mahimbing You aren’t covering me with a pillow Di mo na ako tinatakpan ng unan You aren’t pushing my face in the cooker Di mo na sinusubsob ang mukha ko sa kalan You aren’t kicking me upfront Di mo na'ko sinisipa sa'king harapan And my chest is smoother At mas makinis na rin ang balat sa dibdib Because you aren’t cursing me anymore Dahil hinding hindi mo na'ko pinakukulam I don’t feel the aches and pains that I went through before Ang hapdi at kirot ng sinapit ko noon I don’t feel anymore because I love you more than before Di ko na ramdam pagkat mas mahal na kita ngayon Mas mahal na kita ngayon Don’t ask questions Wag ka nang magtatanong Basta't mahal na kita ngayon I surely love you now Yan ang lagi kong tugon Even when you don’t see or feel Kahit di mo nakikita o nararamdaman My smile is out of place Ang aking tuwa ay walang paglagyan I only know that I love you more because Ang alam ko lang mas mahal na kita ngayon Dahil... You aren’t feeding me the cat’s food Di mo na pinapakain ng para sa pusa You aren’t squeezing the stye my eyes Di mo na pinipitik ang mata ng pigsa And when you say about my haircut you say it’s nice At pag sinabi o sa'king gupit ko'y maganda Your laugh isn’t as loud Di na masyadong malakas ang iyong tawa You aren’t making me sniff pepper Di mo na'ko pinasisinghot ng paminta You aren’t putting ants in my ear Di mo na nilalagyan ng langgam sa tenga I no longer see blood Hindi na kulay dugo ang aking paningin Because my eye is no longer cut with blade Dahil hindi na hinihiwa ng blade sa mata Ang hapdi at kirot ng sinapit ko noon Di ko na ramdam pagkat mas mahal na kita ngayon Ang mahalaga'y mas mahal na kita ngayon Dahil... You aren’t telling stories that I’m a sadist Di mo na kinukwentong satanista ako And my mother was by one maligned person At ang nanay ko'y nireyp ng isang maligno The swelling on my head has reduced Nabawasan na rin ang bukol sa ulo Because you’re no longer smacking me with a tube dahil hindi mo na'ko pinapalo ng tubo And you don’t throw me out without anything di mo na pinapalayas ng nakahubo You’re no longer making me wash with water that’s just boiled Di mo na pinapaligo ng bagong kulo I’m a little less deaf looking Medyo hindi na rin ako nagmumukhang bungo Because you aren’t donating my blood Dahil hindi mo na dinodonate ang aking dugo Ang hapdi at kirot ng sinapit ko noon... howohuwohuwo (di ko na ramdam pagkat mas mahal na kita ngayon) Wherever you are I love you more than before Kahit nasan ka man mas mahal na kita ngayon You’re so cute it's fitting for you to be in your coffin Ang cute mo naman bagay ka sa iyong... ATAUL... (sigh) Thanks Hay salamat! within each one of us, and let it begin with me (and each one of us)..one breath at a time.

Janey, These 3 weeks been questiong that. I thougth my love will keep it strong for the both of us. Never happen. To fully trust one person and in the end find out all the lies and deceit. So, the main factor is don't want to hurt ever... Greatest feelings in the world when two souls profess a love for each other...

hahaha you got it Zaki.I always end up thinking of this song when this question is brought up. I wanna love you and treat you right; I wanna love you every day and every night: We'll be together with a roof right over our heads; We'll share the shelter of my single bed; We'll share the same room, yeah! - for Jah provide the bread. Is this love - is this love - is this love - Is this love that I'm feelin'? Is this love - is this love - is this love - Is this love that I'm feelin'? I wanna know - wanna know - wanna know now! I got to know - got to know - got to know now! I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I - I'm willing and able, So I throw my cards on your table! I wanna love you - I wanna love and treat - love and treat you right; I wanna love you every day and every night: We'll be together, yeah! - with a roof right over our heads; We'll share the shelter, yeah, oh now! - of my single bed; We'll share the same room, yeah! - for Jah provide the bread. Is this love - is this love - is this love - Is this love that I'm feelin'? Is this love - is this love - is this love - Is this love that I'm feelin'? Wo-o-o-oah! Oh yes, I know; yes, I know - yes, I know now! Yes, I know; yes, I know - yes, I know now! within each one of us, and let it begin with me (and each one of us)..one breath at a time.

My rough English translation of I love you more than ever song since the Tagalog words won't appear yet. For the martyrs of love out there.I love you more than ever, much more than before I love more now and all day I don’t care about the past Even when I become a laughing stock What matters is that I love you more than before because You’re no longer pushing me down the stairs You aren’t putting poison in my food And at night when I’m fast asleep You aren’t covering me with a pillow You aren’t pushing my face in the cooker You aren’t kicking me upfront And my chest is smoother Because you aren’t cursing me anymore I don’t feel the aches and pains that I went through before I don’t feel anymore because I love you more than before Don’t ask questions I surely love you now Even when you don’t see or feel any reponse My smile is out of place I only know that I love you more because You aren’t feeding me the cat’s food You aren’t squeezing the stye in my eye And when you say about my haircut you say it’s nice Your laugh isn’t as loud You aren’t making me sniff pepper You aren’t putting ants in my ear I no longer see blood Because my eye is no longer cut with blade You aren’t telling stories that I’m a sadist And my mother was by one maligned person The swelling on my head has lessened Because you’re no longer smacking me with a tube And you don’t throw me out without anything You’re no longer making me wash with water that’s just boiled I’m a little less deaf looking Because you aren’t donating my blood Wherever you are I love you more than before You’re so cute it's fitting for you to be in your coffin (sigh) Thanks! within each one of us, and let it begin with me (and each one of us)..one breath at a time.

Love is an abstract idea that defies explanation or being categorically defined. It is a human construct; thus people feel the need to attach definitions or descriptions to it. It is similar to the concept of time - unfathomable and indistinct but our minds feel the need to grasp something solid and concrete and thus we segment time into nice, easily portionable pieces. It really isn't that simple, but until we can access the untapped 90% of our mental acuity then it makes it easier to think of it that way. But I am not really answering your question, Jane... People often think of love as something good and constructive, and they are partly correct. However, there are fewer things more destructive than love as well. In of itself, love is neither, it simply is. As ZeroMaxx has opined, love is love. No more, no less. It amuses me when people say that love is a universal force - it far more limited than that. It is limited to this world ( until such time as we actually find proof of other inhabited worlds ) so how can it be of a universal scope? Even then it is limited to sentient beings, as animals do not feel love. They are driven by instinct, as we all are. The difference is that we have reason - maybe love cannot exist without our rationale for it...makes you wonder that perhaps we cannot love unless we can think..  I think people want to know what love is because it would make it easier to find and to keep. It is certainly a rare commodity nowadays, and the ones who have it value it more than anything in the world. Unfortunately, love isn't parceled out as easily as we would hope - otherwise the world would be a far lovelier place in which to live. I think the best one can hope for is to have an idea of what love is, or a glimpse, and just go from there. Love is ever-evolving, and ever-changing, and so we must remain adaptable and fluid with it. Hah, napahaba tuloy ito. At least you know na ako talaga ito Jane...I doubt anyone could be as verbose as I, haha  My will is unbreakable. Simply put, I cannot be broken - Enrique

I like the definition kuya thanks for sharing. Yes focusing on the good is great, but... don't want to be blinded by it either if there are major problems. Good has to outweigh the wicked. within each one of us, and let it begin with me (and each one of us)..one breath at a time.
