Love as it Should be Defined
love (luv)
n. 1. Love is like an epiphany. The realization that one is truly in love with another may suddenly occur only when one is deeply in love. This true love may positively affect the way one thinks, acts and views life.
2. syn. God is love; for love is a single quality of God and that is what he is. He showed the greatest love ever when he sacrificed his Son for all of humanity.
3. Love is the sentiment that we ought to express to everyone; for we are to love thy neighbour(i) , love thy enemies(ii) and love the Lord thy God(iii) .
4. Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.(iv)
5. Love is not the affection felt by two people who are sexually attracted to each other.(v) It should not be confused with lust or in-fat-u-ation.
6. Without experiencing or having a love for God one can never be emotionally satisfied and he would be forever searching for fulfillment from temporary, misguided mortal love
v. 1. To love is not to have a physical or erotic relationship with another, for the desires for these relations are of the flesh, and are of the world; and being partakers of the world means that the love of the Father God, who is love, is not in us.(vi)
2. If someone loves you he would not desire to have sex with you he would desire to marry you. syn. true love.
For true love between two people exists far beyond those temporary sparks of physical pleasure and desire; and it can and will always survive without it. True love is the connection made between two people through their personality, companionship and spirituality ie. the relationship that they share together with God.
3. One can only learn true love once they learn to love God; for again, God is love; the perfect translation, definition, synonym and reason for love. For he created love, he is love and love dwells in him.

You say this generation has no passion, is worthless and passive.
All our lives we've been rejected by our fathers and mothers.
What are you expecting? ...what we have is pain.
"You've been lied to, you are worth love."
