    Love means different things to different people.
    I think the best way to describe it is having very strong positive feeling for another (individual or pet). Caring more about someone than yourself, but that's somewhat simple. Here is how wickipedia defines love:

    Love is an emotion of strong affection and personal attachment.[1] In philosophical context, love is a virtue representing all of human kindness, compassion, and affection. Love is central to many religions, as in the Christian phrase, "God is love" or Agape in the Canonical gospels.[2] Love may also be described as actions towards others (or oneself) based on compassion.[3] Or as actions towards others based on affection.[3]

    In English, the word love can refer to a variety of different feelings, states, and attitudes, ranging from generic pleasure ("I loved that meal") to intense interpersonal attraction ("I love my partner"). "Love" can also refer specifically to the passionate desire and intimacy of romantic love, to the sexual love of eros (cf. Greek words for love), to the emotional closeness of familial love, or to the platonic love that defines friendship,[4] to the profound oneness or devotion of religious love. [5] This diversity of uses and meanings, combined with the complexity of the feelings involved, makes love unusually difficult to consistently define, even compared to other emotional states.

    Love in its various forms acts as a major facilitator of interpersonal relationships and, owing to its central psychological importance, is one of the most common themes in the creative arts.
    love is someone thats reaches out to touch your hand but instead touches your heart!
    "IN A WORD (PANDA)!"
    Love is the Light of Creation, by this the universe came into existence. The term love as it is understood here is called the Light, whose Creator is called The Light of Lights in more central universes. Love is the way all things seek proximity to other things and draws all things together. This attraction is not magnetic but emotional and telling of all that each source seeks to be there and is sure to find also. Love brings objective clarity and transparent understanding to all who seek to find love where they are looking. Loves completion is in the fact that to seek love is to find love. How clearly what is found fulfills your expectations of what you think is there, is discoverable by understanding that love does not fulfill wishes but exposes what you love if it is there.
    For me Love is translated as charity, One willing too summit for someone else needs,or too give of yourself even unto death if need be.
