was talking to the kids earlier and they were telling me why they love me and asked me the same question.

which got me thinking. kids love us for the simple stuff.

and you? why do you love who you love? they're special to you right? why? what makes them amazing in your eyes?

:heart:

I've got balls of steel today, so...

You, because you have this absolutely amazing capacity for love that's so strong and pure and absolutely magical that I want a slice of it.

You're a good person to the core, and you make me laugh and you're a wicked co-conspirator.

That's just scraping the tip of the iceberg, but I've probably embarrassed you more than enough already. Part of me's sorry if it did make you blush, but there's another part of me that's in the mood for absolute truth today, and I'm glad I just wrote all this.

:heart: :heart: :heart:

Love is often wrapped up in hearts and candy, but the truth is 50 years later when your boobs, like your ass, are hanging round your knees and he says,' I will always look after you and I will never let anyone harm you'.

Where's my Galahad?

They do? I think kids love their parents for some very big reasons. Even if it isn't on a wholly conscious level. Like giving them a life, a home and a foundation to lean back on for the rest of their years in this world.

Which I guess could be called "simple stuff". Profoundly simple. :)
 
I suppose that depends what you mean by 'love'.

I have no kids and never will so I don't have that kind of love.

I've got friends and I like them a lot, care for them and depend on them. But that's not love to me.

By what I mean as love, well, I'm not currently and don't expect to be so again.

There was one person I cared for greatly, but she's gone from this earth.

And there is one I could fall in love with but I won't let myself. It would cause her far too much heartache.

So currently, I don't love anybody. In the way I use the word.

I feel that we've known each other forever...much longer than just this life. He feels that, too.

He is someone that I can be absolutely completely honest with, say whatever I want, and he loves me in spite of it.

He thinks I'm beautiful, when I know for a fact I'm not.

He is capable of making me laugh until I cry, and doesn't mind acting a fool to do it.

and, this is a biggie for me (those who know my history will understand), I feel safe with him.
 
My SO - we're friends, we amuse and enjoy each other, we trust, we fit.

My kids - they sparkle (I have enjoyed them in every stage of their lives).

My family of origin - they're family, no baggage, we all remain close and in frequent contact (parents in one state, sister in another, me in a third).
 
My parents - don't need to elaborate on that

My roomie, also my best friend - she's considerate, cheerful, smart, a little crazy sometimes and she's an excellent cook :devil:
 
No person is a finished identity. Life is a journey that constantly molds that identity. We provide each other with horizons of completion to journey towards. Sappy, but true.
 
Love leaves even the most articulate without words other than to describe the periphery, never able to sink to the core of what moves mountains.
 
All I know is what I *like* about the people that I love. The love itself has no reason. I fell in love with the Fiance when something inside me reached out, wrapped itself around his heart and pulled my heart with it. It was a physical sensation and wasn't based on any kind of conscious decision.
I love my sister even though I don;t like her much of the time and I love my parents because they're my parents - I'm just lucky that I also like them very much.

The more I thought about it, the less I could find any actual reason for loving the people I love. I love my nephew because he's little, and I want to protect him and because he looks like my Fiance and feeds off my feelinsg for him. This tiny person has no personality traits to like or dislike (and won;t for a while) yet I still love him. Because he's family.

Because she completes me. We share so much, like minds and such. I can tell her about the universe that lives inside a flower and she gets me. I can laugh with her with such ease and her gentleness lets me know that I will always be safe with her. She is my sanctuary. :heart:

and even now these words make little sense. All words seem to fail to describe the feelings I have for her. They lack intesity and meaning.
 
"What I like about you babe, is that you know how to dance."

:D :rose:

I always got a huge kick out that line. It's a sweet song, too.
