What is Love?

What is Love?

When your baby wraps his arms around you and lisps, “I love you”.
When your parent is lonely and depressed, and you wish a hug could travel over phone-lines.
When you find a single red rose abandoned on the kitchen table, “I saw this at a traffic light, and thought of you.”
When a person you have never met messages– “Is your silence because you have been busy, or is something the matter?”
When you see a beautiful sunset, and know who you want to share it with.

Love is what happens inspite of, not because of.
