11:48 PM How do you love?

I think love is to be in another's shoe. To do and give what's best for another. It is not self-centered. Every thought and action must be re-considered; they must be of benefits. Yes, to me, love builds on trust. So what exactly is love all about? Is there really such thing as "love hurts"?

The dictionary.com says love is:
1. profoundly tender, passionate affection for another person.
2. feeling of warm personal attachment or deep affection, as for a parent, child, or friend.
3. sexual passion or desire.
4. person toward whom love is felt; beloved person; sweetheart.
5. (used in direct address as a term of endearment, affection, or the like): Would you like to see a movie, love?
6. a love affair; an intensely amorous incident; amour.
7. sexual intercourse; copulation.
8. (initial capital letter) a personification of sexual affection, as Eros or Cupid.
9. affectionate concern for the well-being of others: the love of one's neighbor.
10. strong predilection, enthusiasm, or liking for anything: her love of books.
11. the object or thing so liked: The theater was her great love.
12. the benevolent affection of God for His creatures, or the reverent affection due from them to God.
13. Chiefly Tennis. a score of zero; nothing.
14. a word formerly used in communications to represent the letter L. –verb (used with object)
15. to have love or affection for: All her pupils love her.
16. to have a profoundly tender, passionate affection for (another person).
17. to have a strong liking for; take great pleasure in: to love music.
18. to need or require; benefit greatly from: Plants love sunlight.
19. to embrace and kiss (someone), as a lover.
20. to have sexual intercourse with. –verb (used without object)
21. to have love or affection for another person; be in love.

Other than 12, seriously, how much does this definitions tell us? They are either very vague or some are even extremely self-purposed. Perhaps it is some of these misconceptions of love that led many to think they're hurt by "love" when in fact they're hurt by their self-pity or self-centeredness. Still.. I may be wrong but I definitely can find a better explaination and teaching of love. Read this with me:

Love never gives up,
Love cares more for others than for self,
Love doesn't want what it doesn't have,
Love doesn't strut,
Doesn't have a swelled head,
Doesn't force itself on others,
Isn't always "me first,"
Doesn't fly off the handle,
Doesn't keep score of the sins of others,
Doesn't revel when others grovel,
Takes pleasure in the flowering of truth,
Puts up with anything,
Trusts God always,
Always looks for the best,
Never looks back,
But keeps going to the end.
Love never dies.

Taken from 1 Corinthians 13:4-8 (The Message). God is beyond our comprehension. He is the best person to explain "love" because He not only teach us "love" or create "love"; God Himself is LOVE.

There are many mysteries and gold in the Word of God. Even before you were conceived, God has provided every essentials for your entire life. He has prepared all of them and placed them all around in the Bible. If you're still looking for an answer in life, rest assured that you can find it in His Word.

Praise God for His wisdom and love for all of us.

"Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never dies." - 1 Corinthians 4-8 (NIV)
