To love is to be passionate

What is this word Love of which the meaning has been twisted for ages?

Does love mean lustful sexuality and being belonged by and belonging someone?

We all feel we have to be possessed and possessing a person when the truth is that love is a beautiful positive energy rather than possession. And we all feel that "seperative love" between "mine" and "yours" (Does love mean loving one but not another?). For this, we can see that we never truly love that someone eventhough we are intimated with that someone physically and with false attachment, and also we never love other people or any living being because we possess and are seperative.

Love is love. Possession is not love. Possession means wanting someone and the things that we like about him/her for oneself, having images about him/her. Love is not between two images but is being connected with the immeasurable energy, having mutual intense energy. Being connected with someone that way brings freedom from inner confinement and therefore generate the inner intense feeling of love that cannot be described. It's a real freedom with no contamination of inner suffering and conflict.

When we do not love, we suffer from our attachment that they "belong to us" which is a false thing - Because nothing can be belonged to - They just exist there. And when we do not love, we suffer when we loose someone because we think that they are ours and we instinctively feel that they no longer give pleasures to us and that their images are no longer with us.

Love is not possession, but rather a quality and energy of intense passion.

Also, love and compassion are the same. To love is to naturally care and to give without wanting anything for oneself.

When we do not possess, we love, which is not the meaning of love that most people automatically feel or define. We can be with someone but we don't have to possess. We can have intimacy and at the same time love passionately.
