Two versions of the same passage...

1 Corinthians 13
Love

1If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. 2If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. 3If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to the flames, but have not love, I gain nothing.

4Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

8Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. 9For we know in part and we prophesy in part, 10but when perfection comes, the imperfect disappears. 11When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me. 12Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.

13And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.
The following is a more personal interpretation of verses 4 to 8 from the above passage:

Love

Love is patient,
Love is kindhearted and never jealous,
Love is modest and never boasts,
Love always remembers its manners,
Love does for others without thought of itself,
Love does not get irritated nor does it bear grudges,
Love does not envy the good fortune of others, rather it is happy for them,
Love always thinks positively,
Love believes,
Love pulls its own weight,
Love is acceptance without prejudice,

and Love never dies....

Love is a Decision

Lust is what every one really craves. Not sexual lust, but the biochemical euphoric kind of lust.

Love is a decision. You decide to put someone in a place where they are of up most important to you. So much of love is hard stuff (diciplining kids, supporting someone through hardships), with out the decision this stuff doesn't happen.

Now romantic love (with lust) is good, becasue you can share the biochemical fun stuff with someone who you are commited to love the sharing of all the hard "life stuff" makes the connection better.

The old saying of "if you love someone set them free". In that case you actually have to be willing to decide to stop loving them, and move them out of the "place" in which your actions are geared towards their well being. Doesn't mean you won't care for them.

Think about when relationships end, so often it is becasue one side is not comfortable with the other person loving them anymore. They don't want that person to love them anymore because they don't like what goes with it. Obligation, expectations commitment.
