Love, one of the most beautiful words in the english language has been denigrated by its misuse for the expression of feelings and emotions. Words to express feelings and emotions such as, pleasure, enjoy, satisfying etc.are substituted by the use of the catch all word "Love". I believe that Love based on emotions or feelings is not Love at all. Love is unconditional, it does not change. Emotions and feelinges change, therefore, Love cannot be based on emotions or feelings. The opposite of love is indifference. Love is simply caring. Shakespeare said it so aptly "Love is not Love that alters when it alterations find".
