STEEMKIDS WEEK 4 || WHAT DOES LOVE ๐๐๐๐๐ MEAN TO YOU? by @cachetes-27
For many years, love has been a topic that has been handled through the various social classes, ideologies, religions and any kind of human classification (so to speak). At the same time, concepts of it were created, taking into account the opinion and point of view of each person.

What do you understand by love?
Love is a feeling of worldwide affection one has towards a person, animal or thing. It also refers to a feeling of emotional and sexual attraction one has towards a person with whom one wants to have an interaction or cohabitation under the same roof. (as the case may be)
Now, this is not the end of this definition, the truth is that the word "love", has certain "adjectives" that accompany it, being so, it changes its meaning, that is to say:
Love as a Value: It is the force or the motive that drives us to do things in a good way, because it is a feeling or rather a universal language, it allows us to establish relationships with our day to day to help us grow personally.
Platonic Love:It is popularly known as that impossible or unrequited love, which endures as an ideal or fantasy.
True Love: It is called this way, to the commitment and genuine and totally sincere affection that a person feels towards another person.
Love at first sight: It is defined as an infatuation that occurs immediately between two people. This occurs because people identify in each other the idealized partner, that is, a set of stereotypes that we associate with the ideal life partner.
Self-love: It refers to the respect, acceptance, determination and positive thoughts we have towards ourselves.
Who can show love and why?
Nowadays, the fact of showing love, has reduced a lot its concept, because it is thought that we can only show love "to our partner". The truth is, from my point of view, siblings, parents, aunts and uncles, friends, acquaintances and even our pets can show us love.
It is not necessary to establish a relationship beyond the normal to feel loved, the simple fact of being with a friend and that they make you feel at home, is the purest sign of love that exists, and if it is the furry ones, then the image explains it by itself.

Have you shown love to someone, how did you do it and how did the recipient feel?
I think that in every little gesture we make we can show and give a little drop of love. In my case, I tend to get very emotional when I help other people, so much so that I make my best effort to do this type of help as often as possible, beyond bringing joy, love and hope, it is something that allows us to grow and that undoubtedly fills us emotionally.
We all have different ways of loving, perhaps some of us are more affectionate than others, in my case, it has become a habit to make friends with the little ones so that they can accept donations in each activity, but there are also others who do not fail to say "thank you to my friend".

Has anyone shown you love before and how did you feel when you were shown love?
Love, love, love.... The truth is, my friends always tend to be very attentive to me, I tend to be somewhat anxious (too much to be true) and they tend to calm me down whenever I'm desperate, plus they always hear me talk a thousand times about the same subject, but they are there to give me a word of encouragement and encourage me to continue. It is the most beautiful way of living love that I know.
Express your love to someone in a practical way.
Since a few days ago, I had noticed that a former schoolmate, had been something different by her WhatsApp and Facebook statuses, I do not know why, but I feel that I have a sensor to sense when something happens to a being of my close environment and I greatly appreciate.
Without thinking twice I decided to write her, she was right, she has not been well at all, and after talking several hours with her, she let me know that she just needed to talk to someone to vent, I felt the smallest and most helpless being in the world, just knowing that she was better, made my day.

Do you think love is a virtue that everyone should cultivate and demonstrate in a practical way?
As they say, too much of everything hurts. It would be good to cultivate it even though we should learn to recognize when it is a "toxic and possessive love ". Everything must have a balance, if all people on the planet were willing to show love, it would be like if all murderers were willing to commit a crime.
Both situations would bring conflict and a whole series of consequences, now by setting a limit and learning to differentiate up to where it is okay to love, then there would be no problem.
How did you learn to show love and where?
I don't remember my home, as a super loving family so to speak, but not without feelings either, you could say there was a balance. As I got older I realized that love was mom getting up every day to make me breakfast, sister explaining homework to me, friends listening to me at 3 a.m. and friends listening to me at 3 a.m., and that I had a lot of love.
My friends listening to me at 3am in the morning, that boy I barely knew who helped me with my homework, or the teacher who stopped to explain to me many times because I didn't understand, my dog waiting for me to play when I came home from class, or my grandmother saving me lunch and so on, were a series of events that allowed me to understand and expand the definition of the concept that I had established as "love".

What would the world be like if everyone cultivated this quality?
As I mentioned above, it would bring a series of consequences that would affect the world balance, and more than that, it would increase psychological disorders and emotional instability.
