I really enjoyed reading the discussions between you guys Al and Ranger. If you want to define love there's no better definition than this..."Love is patient, kind, NEVER proud or envious, slow to anger, NEVER rude, never keeps account of wrong, does not delight in evil, but always rejoices in the truth, sacrifices, always gives, perseveres and NEVER fails."
A lot of ideas have come to my mind on reading your discussion.... but I think I will start from here.
When ever somthing gets uneasy in my life or my relationships with people go topsy turvy, I reflect upon this and see if love has really been there, or whether I have made an effort to keep it ablaze. Romeo and Juliet is just an example of probably sacrifice.... but in my opinion I'd call it more like selfish love, not selfless love. From this play you get and idea or a picture of what love probably is, but to experience and know it for real, one has to put all the ingredients (mentioned in the definition) together and let it flow.
