What Is Love ?
By: Abdul Waheed Noori~
What is love? Love is truly a mystery. Physical beauty is not the sole criteria. Ask a lover about why he/she loves her beloved and you will never get a logical answer. They can never tell you what is the reason behind their love.
Love does not measure qualities, nor sets any standards. In love, you should not think about whether you are on the giving end or the taking end. Giving always gives more pleasure in love than anything else. Loving allows us to put the needs and desires of our lover before our own needs and desires.
If you love someone then you should know that t is about understanding, caring, forgiving, forgetting. giving, doing and sacrificing. Also it is not just about wanting them; it’s about wanting them to be happy. It’s not about wanting to possess or control them; it’s about wanting to save them from bad stuff to happen.
Love is also forgiving and understanding of the fact that we are all humans and we do make mistakes. There are many imperfections in a loving relationship, but the difference is that those imperfections are understood, accepted, and forgiven when they cause hurt. This is a true sign of true love and forgiveness is one of the deepest forms of love that can be expressed.
Loving someone is not as easy as we think. We have to forget ourselves for loving someone. We have to dedicate ourselves to them. We have to be ready to be with them in every thick and thin. We give them unconditional care. We try to give them whatever they want without any selfish motive. If there is any need we are ready to sacrifice for them, even our love.
Everybody has the right to love but one or two out of ten are able to do love. Most of the people by mistake think their infatuation is their love. Infatuation may be because of physical attraction, same thinking pattern or same aim. But infatuation does not go for long. As soon as we find a better person we again fall in infatuation.
I would like to end this article by mentioning the following quote, “We rarely fall in love but we often fall in infatuation.”

I think in our disposable generation so many relationsheips fall apart because people’s selfishness clowd thier vision and they can’t see or understand how giving 100% yeilds 100%! I agree with the points you mention above.
luv it, well stated.
This article was very inspiring. I found the article to be an inspirational one in explaining love, relationships and the importance of giving. Thank you!
hey noori good way of thinking
i didnt thought about love in that way and didnt know you knew that mcuh about luv. just luv it
thanks a lot for sharing
whatever its not a sexual actration from the start but a choice based on the beuty of the choosen one, i mean intelectual spiritual and fisical side that we love and love in the individual regardless of what they look like or stink like you choose to love them and make them special in your heart…
Wonderful article. I wish for all the young people I know to read this- both before and after they have married. You have put so good. Love is a choice. We love each other very much. That love has grown over many years of choosing to love each other when we weren\’t always behaving very loveable.Marriage shouldn\’t be 50/50, it must be 100/100 to really work. Thank you for great articles like this.
Love does not explain, if he lives. Love has no basis or foundation, it gives us no certainty. Love is not rely on the other, is not desire to possess and not expect all of the partner. Love and passion are different feelings. For example being according to some psychoanalysts when you fall in love, you is not related to someone in the flesh, but with a projection created by yourself, and the projection is to make an absolutely perfect. But after a period projection is over, and you start seeing the real person you are relating. Invariably, some virtues of the partner or the partner go away along with the projection, others are .. and what each one was enough for two, the relationship lasts, otherwise no one knows what causes the little button on and start a new projection. The passion just in time, love does. Or is love forever or never truly loved, love endures time, distance, the fights and everything that comes along with a relationship. Love is built every day as a learning day, many times you fall in love in life, but rarely truly love someone. Love is not so physical attraction, sex, love and nice words, love is to suffer the suffering of others, and forget himself and adapt to change and need a partner, is to justify the wrong of another, are waiting for the other is simply living by the other. To love someone you do not need to be on the side of the person, but have a big heart!particularly, I can say that I truly love, I am learning to love someone, it\’s a complicated relationship, but intense, love for me that I feel is a godsend, and I thank you for that love. I am convinced that even if that love does not happen in real time, this feeling will be eternal in my heart and in my constant thoughts
if only they understood that infatuation is NOT love! There are too many couples who are not truly compatible, who do not entirely respect one another, and who never stopped to discuss life goals and philosophies on child rearing, etc., until it was too late. How come the parents of those high school students haven’t discussed “true love” with them???
Your article was very enlightening. So simple, yet so true…thank you.
