Dear forum mates, what is your definition for love? Thank you.
For me, love is a state or feeling where I can be myself, as vulnerable as I am, and still act to follow that feeling. The feeling can be toward anything - action, objects, beings, even myself, but there is always an object to which the feeling turns to.   _________________ "As you think, so shall you become." - Bruce Lee

In this talk Brené Brown talks about vulnerability, shame and fear, and how it affects the human connections.
She says, that people that feel connection with others have "courage to be imperfect", and "compassion to be kind to themselves first before others". They were also able "to let go of what they should be", and just were what they were.
But the most striking thing was that they were proud of their vulnerability, and thought it necessary. So in order to feel connection and love, you need to have vulnerability.
Fontunatelt it can be trained when you just become open and practice joy and gratitude, Brown says.

The main thing for me in this video was that when ever I face my fears, pain or vulnerability with wonder, it it much easier to be myself. Be vulnerable enough, to not know all the answers, but wonder what it may be. This is how love also is born   _________________ "As you think, so shall you become." - Bruce Lee

Thank you asking Tetyana. I would choose 'Acceptance'.
How about you other forumusers? What would be your choice of word?   _________________ "As you think, so shall you become." - Bruce Lee

Then it would be letting go.   _________________ "As you think, so shall you become." - Bruce Lee

Really? Isn't it a verb of two words?   _________________ "As you think, so shall you become." - Bruce Lee

Thanks Tetyana
It's just that those words feel the way I feel love. Even if I cannot explain it, it's right for me.   _________________ "As you think, so shall you become." - Bruce Lee

As to the definition, it would be letting go of prejudge, in one word it would be accepting.   _________________ "As you think, so shall you become." - Bruce Lee

Actually, an update: love is an act of giving. As its best it's a flow of power, always in motion.   _________________ "As you think, so shall you become." - Bruce Lee
