So ever been in love? Sure you have. No, am not just talking about romantic love alone. So you think there ain't another type of love? Think again.
Love is that emotion no one can escape from. You will surely agree with me, won't you? So here is a list of the types of love that exist around us.
Love for God
This kind of love for the creator is a different sort of love. It's the feeling of empowerment, contentment and spiritual connection you experience when loving the almighty God who created you.
Love for parents/elders
This love is what we have towards our parents. The family feeling, the love comparable to none towards humans. This kind of love gives us the feeling of security, of warmth, of belonging somewhere, sacrificial love.
Romantic Love
Who doesn't know this kind of love? It's the most spoken of. It commercially sells well too. This love is the one that gets you connected to a person in a romantic way. Hard to find and harder to keep. It gives you a sense of excitement, care and emotional connectivity towards the person you are romantically in love with. The butterflies, dilated pupils all are seen and experienced here.
Love for siblings and friends
The platonic love, that which you have towards your siblings and close friends. It's that kind of love that keeps you going when you need a shoulder to cry on or a ear to listen to your emotional or personal sagas.
So why am I talking about love today? Well you will soon know the answer. But let me tell you, this segregation (once told to us by our Hindi teacher somewhere when I was in the 7th Std) of love seems incomplete to me. Though I remember it extremely well. I stumbled upon two more kinds of love.
Here is what comes next...
The love of parents towards their children
This love is comparable to none and it involves time, sacrifice, patience, understanding, caring and unconditionally giving. Trust me, other than your parents no one can give that kind of love to you ever. Though exceptions are there.
And then comes the greatest of all love.
Guess which?
Love of God for us all
For God so loved the world that he gave his only son Jesus to suffer on earth and die for our sins so that the gates of heaven will be opened for us, so that through his blood our sins may be washed clean and we may be made new everytime we stand up against sin and overcome it.
Love isn't always about reciprocation, it's about selfless giving such was the love of Christ for us.
And he calls each of us today to love selflessly all those you encounter each day of your lives.
Today is the celebration of this greatest love on earth.
Wishing you all a happy Easter and may God's mercy and love fill each of your hearts, may you be renewed in Jesus and be a blessing to all around you.
No matter who you are, where your from, what you do, remember that Jesus loves you.

For me, love is unconditional acceptance, care and support.
ReplyDeletewhere you do not expect anything in return and you just give and give. A soul is love full in its original nature, only thing is we have become empty and instead of giving love we are begging love.
you can give unconditional support to others only when you are filled with love inside, and that fullness comes when you are filled with Gods love. once the soul is filled with love it acts a medium to spread fragrance of love around. love is contagious, it has ability to create smiles on sad faces and heal the wounds and scars on hearts of other people.
Love is a one way street!!! It's only about giving n giving.
ReplyDeleteIt's simple, no matter who you love, if you love them you will want to turn their every :( to :):):) , no matter what the consequences or humiliation one may face.
The more the humiliation the greater is ones love. Remember Jesus on the cross!
It's a one way street all the way!

Love is not Blind. We humans are. There's no such thing as Love. I would say it's more of trust, dependability, sacrifice, care, understanding that could be summed up into the word 'love'. Cheers !
