Love is a Choice
Love is active, not passive. It's an intricate combination of thoughts, feelings, desires, actions, and more. Specifically, "Mature Love is the active concern for the happiness, joy, well being, and spiritual growth of its beloved." Love is a fire - if it lacks fuel, heat, and air, then whatever spark of love you may have felt will flicker and die. If love was only a feeling, it would never survive, because feelings are fickle. They flicker and a sudden cool wind can extinguish them. If love was only an action, you could stack up an enormous pile of firewood and never enjoy the warm comfort that fire provides. Watch this video to learn why love is a choice and what, exactly, love chooses again and again.
