Is Love an Illusion?
-
And what does 'the darkness' say about love?
The first flush of youth was upon you when our eyes first met
And I knew that to you and into your life I had to get
I felt light-headed at the touch of this stranger's hand
An assault my defences systematically failed to withstand'Cos you came at a time
When the pursuit of one true love in which to fall
Was the be all and end allLove is only a feeling
(Drifting away)
When I'm in your arms I start believing
(It's here to stay)
But love is only a feeling
Anyway -
SaLaM
"Is love a tender thing? It is too rough,
Too rude, too boist'rous; and it pricks like thorn."- William Shakespeare
For even as love crowns you so shall he crucify you. Even as he is for your growth so is he for your pruning.
Even as he ascends to your height and caresses your tenderest branches that quiver in the sun,
So shall he descend to your roots and shake them in their clinging to the earth...
-Khalil Gibran
but also
To know the pain of too much tenderness.
To be wounded by your own understanding of love;
And to bleed willingly and joyfully.-Khalil Gibran
So love is no joke is it?
You can feel the pain of it as in Sweet Poison. And poisons are bad?
But all medicines are poisons but they can be still good for us?There is no BS in Love, only Broken hearted see it that way... -)
Love is the way it is...But question is - Is Love an Illusion?
You did not answer -(Regards,

Salaam,
Allah swt has created us to have feelings as the five senses.
So to say that is an illusion is for me wrong.
Broken heart or not, Love is still beautiful and we have to go through it to feel good in life.
And why did Allah created us to having sex, not only for having babies because why then is sex a pleasure and lustful!?
Anyway is it any of you who have heard that song who really describe an sexual intercourse!?
I heard it by an accident because I borrow my daughters mp3 and listening on the train and suddenly this incredible song popped up and i felt very ashamed ops
I don't want to write the text here because I know here is sensitive people.
Peace

Peace All,
Here's a question...besides the biological mechanics of life (eating, sleeping, breathing, etc.), what action, non-action, decision, or non-decision can you think of that is not rooted in love or lack thereof?
Why do you work?
Why do you give?
Why do you sacrifice?
Why do you compromise?
Why do you lie?
Why do you tell the truth?
Why do you learn?etc. etc.
Peace,

It's very suprising someone posted this. Love is a real thing. Scientists have discovered a broken heart is a physical pain that is felt by the heart. To tell you the truth I don't know whether love is an illusion or an obsession or whether it is a unique feeling that cannot be described by words.
Love isn't a good thing at the moment for me in my books cry
PEACE

Why do you work? - 'cause i needs the moneys
Why do you give? - 'cause i believe in a cause greater than I
Why do you sacrifice? - it's inevitable
Why do you compromise? - inevitable
Why do you lie? - 'cause I'm an asshole
Why do you tell the truth? - 'cause I'm an asshole
Why do you learn? - 'cause it's my passion

SaLaM idontknow
IF you are reffering that love is so good and yada yada becoz how to people care for each other. Then here is a secret. 2 people dont have to be in love to actually care for each other. 2 people are just fine without love. Its when they love that things go wrong.

Peace,
I have read about love in connection to oneness and peace --in oppostion to affection or love for a person or family or group.
If we are one in essence, the good or the bad we do to others we are doing to ourselves. From this perspective, the aim of becoming a loving person for all looks easier. 'All' includes our enemies too. This can be possible if we are in the state of peace. This love demmands not seeking anything in return.
The other concept of love, for specific people and expecting something in return, say for the children or familiy or friends,or the husband and wife would be called differently, maybe affection or something else.
Anwering the question, my answer is not, love is n ot an illusion.

Salaam all,
I think there are people here who have had their heart broken.
But we must go on always and we might could find love again )
Both men and women can be hurt in love and that can also be a test from God to see how tolerate we are and so on.
Peace
Sis Majidah -
sure 2 peopel can be fine without love,
i believe love (like most things)isn't somthing you can have a clear view on, unless you've honestly experienced it, as far as male/female relations go,
i dont know when it is honeslty 'experienced' in a relationship, i guess you jsut kind of know...i have yet to feel that, i'm tired....etc....)peace

Salaam Br Jaxal,
I agree with you that two person can have a relationship based on friendship and they don't have to be LOVERS.
But if this relationship would grow, what would you do then, close your feelings?
I think we have to be and stay open for love.
The problems is that some people love too much and too deep and it can create problems if the partner will end the realationship and the other part isn't ready for that.Yes love can be painful but we shouldn't give it up!
Peace
