There are many different descriptions about Love for different peoples... some peoples are struggling to give a meaning into it or finding out what is it for them, despite its meaning can be easily found in dictionaries, or internet with the flick of a finger

And to some, they just chose to run away and neglected the Love that grows inside of them because they are afraid of commitment

Why is commitment seen, sounded and felt so "scary"? Isn't it something that human are used and lived with, in life...?
Commitment to achieve certain goals we set in life, commitment towards career that we're in or role we wanted to excel in, commitment to every single person we met in life no matter how hard we're trying to deny it...

I guess experiences also plays an important role in life and affect how we sees what Love is...

Love is...

When somebody - a friend, a colleague, a sister/brother, a partner/spouse or even a parent hurt us, do us wrong, say something bad to and about us - yet we still cares about them and can't hate them, or just yet still stay by their side

When everyone around told you to move on, or the entire World against you giving you signal to give up... yet you're still willing to wait a little longer for their return or for them to turn back their shoulder and smile at you

When even after you're telling yourself so much so about the "not so nice" thing about that person, yet you just can't find a single reason why you love them...

When their family become yours, their free baggages become yours...

When their flaws somehow looks cute and funny to you, while you'll be very proud of their achievements and strength

When sex is not a bond, not a lust, not a responsibility... but a way to serve and please each others, respect each others, and submissively giving the whole of you because you just want to become one wit them

When their happiness matters to you, and you're not afraid to sacrifices something for their happiness - your principles, your time, or just name it...

When you're always be there for them even in the darkest and lowest time of their life and be a support tree that renews their energy and oxygen each and everyday until they stand up again

And... when you cares nothing else other than their well being, their health, their success and prays for them every single day even from a distance

At least that's what it is for me...
