Loi in Starbucks/Barnes & Noble in 2017

This morning I went out of my home at 8:30am for returning the two items and I received two receipts. However, the money does not deposit my bank. I need that money back. Smh. But I hope it will return to me. Wait and see. Anyways, after I returned the two items, I went to Starbucks and Barnes & Noble in the mall for dating myself and for reading The Tail of Emily Windsnap book. I read on two chapters, 15 and the last one was 16. Yay! I will read the next book Emily Windsnap and the Monster from the Deep by next week Saturday. I'm looking forward to read it. I enjoyed The Tail of Emily Windsnap book. It's fascinating of how Emily can turn into a mermaid. Oh! I found so straightly bold word from Emily that she need to see her dad, a merman. I love the 4 love quotes are: 

"...belief in love." 

"You can't make people stop loving each other just because a law says it's wrong." 

"My dad fell in love. So what? What did I do to deserve to grow up without a father?" 

"If it really is so terrible, if love is such a horrible crime, then fine, lock me up." 

I wore a red Plaidurday and pant. The new beautiful upgraded style myself. I also bought the fall treats: Pumpkin Spice Latte and Pumpkin Spice Muffin. The cost of these are totally $8.06. I felt inspired by Simple Elegance. I thank her for impacting me to do this art of myself. <3 Loiriam 

Love Will Find You

Do you remember that after I wrote the five chapters about dating, love and marriage? (See my five blog posts “How to Forget About a Crush?”, “Are You Ready to Date?”, “Are You Ready for Marriage?”, “How to know a Real Love?” and “How Can You Carry On a Successful Courtship?”) Here is a message for you:

You just expect someone will love you and will marry you, and stay with you forever. And will enjoy company with you, share with your interests, and sense an affection with you. Then you realize that nothing happens in your life. It’s a love at first sight.

There are many fishes in the sea and you have a hard time to find who your real love is. Plus, many times you feel that love can’t find you. But love can find you when you stop searching for someone who will love you. You just get to control the feeling for someone. Love is not jealous.  And when you see the romantic couples are holding the hands, staring at each other affectionately, embracing each other and kissing each other, you feel jealous, and wishing you have someone that like you and love you. You learn how to deal with jealous, and love yourself first. Do not agonize on how low you are when you can’t find someone who like you and love you. Love will find you when you love yourself first.

Do not be feeling of rejection. Think about the goals that you plan. If you have goals, then you have the future. One young woman speaks of herself as hurt because of feeling rejected. “I can only be a ‘Hi, how are you?’ person now,” she says. “I am not letting any person get close to me.” The deeper the commitment you feel is rejected. Don’t be that way. It’s someone’s loss for not seeing you in his or her life.

Yes, indeed, the freedom to romance whom you wish carries a heavy price tag: rejection. There is no guarantee that a true love will grow on your tree. So if someone began courting you with honest intentions but later on nothing happen in your life, you will feel unfair. You deal with unfair is not necessarily. Let it go. It’s his or her loss.

The problem is, even when you expect someone will be honest with you, but lie to you, you will feel rejected and hurt. No reason to lose you, but that is happening. The fact that you are wrong in someone’s eyes does not mean that you will be wrong in the eyes of someone’s else!

Try not to feel like you are a defunct person. You are loved! And loss will turn to be nothing is happening. Because love will find you when you love yourself first. And someone will involve your life – maturity, good intentions, flexibility, tolerance, consideration for your feelings. These are not hardly desirable qualities in a marriage mate.

What if love find you and you will have a marriage mate in your life? Certainly you are happy with someone who like you and love you. Perhaps a true love will grow on your tree if the two of you will last forever. Regrets nothing with you accomplish of love and marriage. But remember that the world is imperfect where you live, and if your courtship will fall apart, there is no need to humiliate yourself, tearfully begging for someone that have no affections and no feelings for you. Solomon said, …a time to keep, and a time to cast away.-Ecclesiastes 3:6.

Do not suspect at someone who used you for not having a sincere interest in marrying you. And do not be his or her avenger. It’s his or her loss. Be assured that God notices his or her dishonesty. God says, …cruel troubleth his own flesh.-Proverbs 11:17; also read Proverbs 6:12-15.

From time to time you may still be tormented by hopeless and loneliness for not having a real love in your life. It’s happening. It’s okay for you to have a good cry. It also helps you to get busy, and stay strong. Talk to your family or friend(s) you trust, go out to fun activities or the Christian missionary. Keep your mind positive. (Philippians 4:8) Be confident in your close friend. (Proverbs 18:24) Your parents are also being of great comfort, even you feel you are old enough to follow your own rules. (Proverbs 23:22) But the most important thing is, be confident in the LORD.

You may need to work on your personality and someone to see you in your life. Your dream of marriage may be coming true. And having loved and lost, you handle courtship a bit more prudently should a desirable person come along again – the likelihood of which you may be greater than you expect.

I hope you have a lovely Tuesday. Tomorrow is the new Wednesday. :) <3, Loiriam

The Basic Making and Baking of Strawberry Shortcake

I have been so busy with a lot of thoughts on my mind...this year would have me felt peace, but with
criticism, isn't it fair? Well, as I've told that life is goes on and I have to accept the mistakes that I had made. As my favorite diarist, Anne Frank said, "Don't think of me as a fourteen-year-old, since all these troubles have made me older; I won't regret my actions, I'll behave the way I think I should." Yeah, I learn a lesson of not to deal with the past. Because the past is over, it cannot bring back. The present is now as I keep going now. This is part of history, and part of life's a lesson. 

Okay, this weekend was a Strawberry Festival. Last year, I did finally make it with my family. It was
better, and I enjoyed spending Strawberry Festival with my family. I miss it. :( I couldn't go because I don't live near Strawberry Festival anymore. But that festival is in my new area with different date. That different date is going to be after my birthday. I look forward to go there with my siblings and in-law as I hope so. Okay, um...oh, yesterday, and again today I made strawberry shortcake. It tastes divinely yummy! Here is a picture of it.

Here is a recipe of strawberry shortcakes that I adapted little bit from Bisquick box.
Because of 4 cups of sliced fresh strawberries are too much for 6 spoonfuls of dough. 

2 cups sliced fresh strawberries
½ cup sugar
2 ½ cups Original Bisquick mix
½ cup milk 
3 Tbsp. sugar 
3 Tbsp. butter, melted 

Add to frozen whip cream after making and mixing strawberries in ½ cup sugar and baking biscuit at the oven. I set the heat oven to 425-degree F.

Stir Bisquick mix, milk, 3 Tbsp. sugar and the butter until soft dough forms. Drop by 6 spoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheet.  

Bake 10-12 minutes or until golden brown. Split warm shortcakes; fill and top with strawberries and whip cream.

After I made and baked only 6 strawberry shortcakes, these are now serving-:) Well, if I live with like 10 people in a nice big house, I can make 20 strawberry shortcakes!-: D, he he. Oh, how heavenly I love biting the strawberry shortcakes! <3

If you have drooling with, and desiring to bite the strawberry shortcakes, help yourself.-;) Loiriam xx

My Job Application for Hospitality

Red long convertible sleeve, roll tabs, buttoned cuffs-Express/Black pant-Rue21/Black/White Diamond shoes-From Panama

Yesterday I went to Career Fair and I applied some jobs. On what position do I applied for? I applied for deli, bakery, and cleaning. I also want to apply for meal preparation and feed people and care, for example, elderly people. Why do I apply it for? Because of I’m wanting to match the beautiful example of Jesus. Jesus had fed more than five thousand people and miracle the sick people because he care. Thus, his beautiful qualities are love, compassion and empathy. These are important for people to need to apply for their daily life. In addition to peace, which beautiful. And if you love people, you do what they need. Like you invite them to come to your house and feed them. But you don’t want to invite the casual people who have no concern about you. You want the peaceful people in the house you live in. That is rather wisely practice for a housekeeper or cared worker who is hired, than acting like not a housekeeper or cared worker to be fired.

If you have a driver’s license and the person need help with driving education, teach her. Don’t tell her that a car is expensive while you are still driving anyway. As if you work as driving educator, it’s your job to teach the learners’ permit how to drive, not you tell them to ask their parents or whoever teach them how to drive when they don’t want to teach. I had a bad experience at driving school in North Tonawanda. My driving educator who is a woman always complain about my driving skills that did not follow her steps. So she decided to refer me to my parents teaching me. Anyway, if you don’t do your job by teaching learners’ permit how to drive, you may be getting fired from your driving school job. And if in for your personal, you may be regretted about your future car if it is collapsed and you need help with learning how to take a bus, someone who take a bus will not teach you. So, in my belief, it is fair.

If someone is not feeling well, you take care of someone which is your job as if you are working as a housekeeper or cared worker.

You have a good effort to work on showing love to people.

Now, after you have done what you have done for the need of people. They are taking turn to do what you need. If they do what you need, the love will remain grow and fond to each other. And that is very important. If there is no hospitality, then people are hateful and neglected. We want peace, not war. We want love, not hate. God loves people mean you love people. So do that and imitate His personality. Same as job you work, by keeping a job, you develop a great work.

I am looking forward to hear from job interview. But, if I don’t hear from it, then I keep motivating until I get a job. :) Yours, Loiriam

Chapter Five: "How Can You Carry On a Successful Courtship?"

The phrase: "Most marriage failures are courtship failures." should not fit everyone. But sadly yes, most they do. Louise expressed her biggest mistake was getting attached affectionately to Andy before she allowed herself to see what he was like as a person. Their courtship had been pretty much limited to one-on-one settings. Louise never saw how Andy reacted outside these 'ideal' situations. That situation causes by divorce. How to avoid failing courtship? Carrying on a successful courtship!

The Happy Married Old Couple <3<3

Before You Are Dating

The simple believeth every word: but the prudent man looketh well to his going.-Proverbs 14:15

If you don't know this person you are dating, it invites disaster. Even marriage can be worst if you marry this wrong person! It is wise for you to observe this person before you are ahead to date. Also, it helps you find out what kind of reputation he or she has by talking with someone who knows the person well. 

Your First Date

When you met your first date, he or she might be a suitable marriage mate for you if after you expressed a desire to get to know him or her better. Your first date need not be some complicated affair, which is a positive response. Maybe during lunchtime date or being part of a group date, you can and will suit to become a better acquainted so as to decide whether you want to continue to be in a relationship. Keeping cool helps ease your nervous for your first date. And express maturely as a good commitment, so that your first date will not lose his or her interest in you.

The type of date planned is to show up on time, dress neatly and appropriately. Chat well with your first date. Be a good listener to your first date. (James 1:19) A young man will want to follow local rules of etiquette. These are including opening the door for a young lady or help her with the seat. A young woman need to cooperate modestly with her date. By treating each other with respect, a couple set a plan for the future. Read the good scriptures 1 Peter 3:7 and Ephesians 5:33. Show affection appropriately without selfish. Such like holding hands, kissing, and embracing so that you and date can be clean. Remember my blog about no premarital sex. That is important for you to know what to do while you are dating. As you are showing self-control, you can focus on a successful courtship.

Better Know A Person Than Dating A Wrong One

1 Peter 3:4 explains 'better know the secret person of the heart than dating the wrong one.'

Good to learn more about a secret person of the heart. So plan to go out with him or her by going to the cinema theater or musical concert may help you know more about that person. Also, add to communicate with him or her while roller skating, bowling, visiting zoo, any museum, and art gallery, can do more to help you know him or her better. To take a look at your partner's feelings, try  opening questions like 'Are you available for Friday night?' 'If we don't have any money, what thing will you like to do?' 'What feature of our worship of God do you like the best? Why?' These are allowing to response you that help you learn what your partner's treasures.

As in a relationship deepens, the two of you are very seriously consider marriage. There is serious need to talk about future. Where and how you will live; you work outside the home; children; birth control; concepts of each one's role in marriage; and both immediately and many goals and how you plan to achieve these. Also, your health matters, such as any serious diseases, your consequences need to be frankly discussed with your partner, which is important. As Job 33:3 tells you to express straight from your heart and speak sincerely. Explain how your courtship prepared you for what proved to be a happy marriage. Always be honest with what you agree or disagree with your partner.

Do not be afraid to speak with your partner. Ask your partner about what to do with money in the future. And make sure that the two of you have the same saving goal.

Furthermore, be prepared to ask a lot more questions can be the best qualities of the heart that need to be seen before marriage.

Watch His or Her Action!

A person can be very nice to you. But really you don't expect when others are around him or her, and he or she can be interacting them more than you are. One of your friends might say that your partner like him or her more than you are. Now you get to see yourself how you reacts under pressure. Will you doubt your friend? During your courtship, interact your partner's friends and family and yours helps tremendously.

Add to you two are spending time working together. Share in faith works, including read the Bible to each other and go on the missionary together. Also, clean the house, go to the grocery store, and prepare the meals that after marriage will become a habitual life. By being together under real-life circumstances, you can see what your partner is doing to you.

And to make a similar assessment takes time. So avoid a quick courtship. (Proverbs 21:5) Usually a man and woman will win each other's love. But if they don't hurry to marry, then their courtship are successful. And their future marriage will not be failed. And their life in marriage will be happy. 

This is the end of chapter. But the more you prepare for dating, and a successful courtship, you will be happy with your marriage mate. :) Love, Loiriam

Chapter Four: "How to Know a Real Love?"

A starry-eyed romantic is a tragedy that holds you, a once-in-a-lifetime feeling of pure ecstasy. People believe that love is strictly an affair of heart, something that cannot be understood.

Love at First Sight

"Thought that I was going crazy

Just having one those days yeah

Didn't know what to do

Then there was you

And everything went from wrong to right

And the stars came out and filled up the sky

The music you were playing really blew my mind

It was love at first sight..."

Have you heard that song before? If so, who sang this song? Kylie Minogue. She is my favourite Aussie singer. Do you want to know what that song means? Okay, at first, I read and examined what it means. It means that when Kylie first saw her lover. She felt everything was perfect and priceless. Kylie knew it was love because she felt hope again. Her life changed in a good way. So when you met your lover for the first time at a party. You immediately attracted to your lover shapely figure and the way his or her hair scrambled over his or her eye when he smiled or she laughed. Your lover was enchanted by your deep whatever colour you have in your eyes and your witty conversation. It sounds like real to you. But it was love at first sight!

What will happen to you two in the next three weeks? During the next three weeks, you and your lover were unable to be separated. Then one night your lover received a devastating text message from a former boyfriend or girlfriend. Your lover contacted you for comfort. But you feel threatened and confused, and your respond is cold! So you thought that love will last forever.

Will you listen to Kylie Minogue's song Love at First Sight? It looks so popular to you. I loved that song! But now think of a real love and that is important. I will make another blog about love at first sight for this blog and when I will finish with this chapter and chapter five. So that you will learn more about what not to do with love at first sight. You know the action is important. Do you know why? Because of the word spoken "I love you" is not enough. So it is important for you to get to know a person's thoughts, hopes, fears, plans, habits, skills, and abilities. You meet a person in person, not the secret person of the heart. And when you meet a person, know how to know if he or she is real to you.

My beauty is still vain, anyway. Sorry men, 

you can't marry me. :( 

Because of that what Watchtower's new policy is.

Beauty Is Vain

Beautiful and handsome looks are vain. Just like in the last blog's Knotting Together. That, the scripture Proverbs 31:30 warns you 'beauty is vain'. So don't choose a person for only beautiful or handsome look, but for love. Because love is the wonderful quality. Read the beautiful scripture 1 Corinthians 13:4 about that love is not jealous. Love is important than appearance.

Do you notice a woman put a gold ring on her nose today? A gold ring on the nose was a popular adornment during Bible times. It was exquisite. (Proverbs 11:22) Are you falling in love with the looks or what that person is inside?

The Most Misleading Thing There Is

But some feel that the human heart has perfect romantic judgment. "Just listen to your heart. You will know when it's real love! Unfortunately, it's a false idea. Why? Because of many of you have failed relationship in the past. Yet, you "invariably described your current experience as love"! Most of you, though, will likely one day view your current involvement as you did your past ones - as mere fake love.

Tragically, the thousands of couples every year marry under the illusion of being 'in love' only to find shortly after that they have seriously mistake.

Proverbs 28:26 tells you not to trust your heart. As Jeremiah 17:9 explains 'that the heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked. Who can know it?' If you walk in wisdom, you will escape from the dangers and frustrations that you suffered if you learn the difference between infatuation and the love described in the Bible-love never fail.

Love Vs Infatuation

Infatuation is blind, not like reality. When you're infatuated with a person, you think that it is a real love.

Word "infatuation" means "short-lived passion for someone". That word is just called "fake love". It is silly and lonely. But the Bible describes "true love" in 1 Corinthians 13:4, 5.

Since it "seeketh not her own," love based on Bible principle is neither lonely nor selfish. True, a couple may have strong romantic feelings and mutual attraction. But these feelings are balanced by reason and deep respect for the other person. When you are really in love, you care just as much for the other person's welfare and happiness as you do for your own. You do not let overpowering emotion destroy good judgment.

Real Love's Example

The Bible tells a love story about Jacob and Rachel. The two of them met at the well where Rachel had come to water her father's sheep. Jacob was immediately attracted to her not only because she was beautiful, but because she was a worshiper of a true God. For more info, read Genesis 29:1-21.

It Takes Time!

True love don't hurt you. It takes time! Indeed, always get to know someone you met. 

Time also allows you to examine your romantic interest in the light of the Bible. Remember, love 'behave well', and "seeketh not her own". Is your companion eager match your successful plans or tell you to match only his or her own? Does he or she show you respect? Has he or she pressured you to do things that are really not good in order to satisfy selfish passion? Does this person tend to put you down or build you up in front of others? These questions can help you consider your feelings more objectively.

Rushing in getting romance can invites disaster. Because of it shows you insecurity and self-centered. So your mate lost his or her romantic charm and become selfish. One day you will scream that your spouse is cheap, lazy, and flop. So what will your spouse react? Punch your face with his or her fist. That situation leads to end of the marriage.

However, the Bible's counsel you would no doubt keeping your marriage. (Ephesians 5:22-33). Real love does happen everyday. So how can you know if a person is real to you? Trust your Bible. Get to know that person's inside. Give the relationship time to blossom. Remember, infatuation reaches disease in a short time but then fades. Genuine love grows stronger with time and become a perfect match.-Colossians 3:14

Chapter Three: "Are You Ready for Marriage?"

Hello, I haven't been blogging new chapter, "Are You Ready for Marriage?" for last week. The reason is: Heavy duty on the farm, which my two young cousins are back to school. And after working, I felt my arms and legs are "numb". So I decided to not to blog, but watching a movie and listening to my favorite music. But now I can blog. :)

Marriage is not a game. God intended for husbands and wives to remain closeness. Read the beautiful scripture Genesis 2:24. A marriage mate is thus someone you stick to - or be stuck with - for the rest of your life.

What I understand is that, when rushing to marry someone can lead to disaster. Why? The answer to this have strong bearing not ready for marriage.

Great Expectations

Sadly, many young people are not sure what marriage is. They thought they enjoy being together, or not do the house chores, but that not the way marriage is. Many young people simply want to get married to escape a bad situation at home, at school, or in their community. But marriage is not covered up the problems. Because of marriage can pops up the problems such like lost the job, financial situation, heat arguments, etc. Vicky experienced her first child at aged 20 told that many teenagers get married to play house. It looks like such fun! You think of a baby as a little doll, something that is so cute and that you can just play with, but not that. It's serious. 1 Corinthians 7:3, 4 explains that when you two finished married, you two have authority to touch each other bodies.

Wisely, the Bible encourages you two to get married so that you two won't sin.-1 Corinthians 7:36

Ready for Your Roles

Marry someone who think not only sex, but communicate with you, support you, love you and something treat you well. So that you won't be fooled.

Before you get married, make sure that you keep cleaning house and know how to cook. Some of you men think only women clean the house and cook, and so you can lean on them. Is that true? No. You men can clean the house and cook. As to help each other in the house during marriage. Even single men can do them by themselves. You don't need a woman to lean on. Same as us single women don't need a man to lean on for repairing in the house and cutting the grass in the backyard. But if you want to get married, you need to make sure that you do skilled domestically. Like what you know about marriage, marriage is not a game. It's serious. Get that?

And, how about have you ever supporting your family before you get married? Like for example, you daughters, tend to help your dad by fixing the meals and sewing his clothes when its rip? It is something you daughters get ready for marrying your man after your dad.

Be Financially Responsible

Before you get married, make sure that you are always responsible to finance so that you won't have marital discord for your future marriage. Also, make sure that you have budget. So that you won't have a biggest problem with spending family income. How do you have income? By going to work and keeping a job can solve your money problems. And that you won't feel pain. If you want to have fun things to do with your life, make sure to see what left you have in your bank. Or if you want to save money for future, save what left you have in your bank. Thus, you two won't start lots of heat arguments and unhappiness.

You know that marriage is working when it comes to communicate and support each other every day. That is love. Also, having a job is important. Because of you see what happen to the marriage. One homeless young man explained about what happened to him and his ex-wife. One commentator told him a lesson is to not to get married. I read the scripture Proverbs 24:27 advises you to 'prepare your work out of home, and make it fit for yourself in the field; and after that, you build your own house.' I like that scripture. Building the house to own is better than mortgaging or renting home. Thus, no marriage have that type of problem.

Knotting Together

Same life goal is worth in marriage. While you are not yet married, if your life goal is not the same as your mate, is it worth to marry your mate? The better answer is no. Because of you don't want that problem.

Knotting together is not the point about making good looks. But the point is love. Love is key. If you want to marry someone who is so handsome, read Proverbs 31:30. It warns you, Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain...

Examine Yourselves

It is a snare to the man who devoureth that which is holy, and after vows to make enquiry.-Proverbs 20: 25 

Does examine yourself in the light of the scriptures before you enter into something as serious as a vow of marriage make sense? Just what are your goals in life? How will these be affected by marriage? Do you want to get married for getting experienced of having sex with your mate or to escape your family problems?

Also, on what level are you in? Are you ready for taking on the role of husband or wife? Are you able to manage a household or to make a living? If you always find conflict with your parents, will you be able to get along with your marriage mate? Can you endure with marriage problems? Have you truly handle the money? Your parents will doubt if you think you are ready for marriage.

Marriage can be either happy and most bitter pain. It depends on how ready you are for it. If you are not ready for marriage, why not wait until you are ready for it? Waiting won't harm you. It simply give you time you truly need to be ready and take that serious - and permanent - step of marriage.

Love

For almost a month that I haven't posting a blog, but now I do! :) Okay, I want to share my research on Love with you all.

Love is a type of different feelings, conditions, attitudes that runs from interpersonal affection...It can refer to an emotion of a strong attraction and personal attachment. It can also be a virtue representing human kindness, compassion, and affection...also describe compassionate and affectionate actions towards other humans, one's self and animals. 

Ancient Greeks identified the four forms of love: kinship, friendship, romance and divine. This type of uses and meanings combined  with the complexity of the feelings involved makes love usually not difficult to regular define, compared to other emotional conditions. 

Love in its various forms acts as a major person who responsible for leading or working with interpersonal relationships and, owing to its central psychological importance, is one of the most common themes in the creative arts. 

Impersonal love 

A person goal for deeply committing and greatly valuing. For example, compassionate outreach and volunteer workers "love" of their cause may sometimes be born not of interpersonal love but impersonal love, altruism, and strong spiritual... People can also "love" the material objects, animals, or activities if they invest themselves in bonding or otherwise identifying with those things. If sexual passion is also involved, then this feeling is called Paraphilia.  

Interpersonal love 

Love between human beings is more like beloved than just liking for. Love is not available for those who have no feelings and are not matched. Interpersonal love is most closely associated with interpersonal relationship. Such love might exist between family members, friends, and couples.  

Views on Love 

Ancient Greek 

Greek discerns the words for love which is used. For example, philia, eros, agape, storge, and xenia, but with Greek, it has been historically difficult to separate the meanings of these words totally. At the same time, the Ancient Greek text of the Bible has example of the verb agapo having the same meaning as phileo. 

Agape means love in today Greek. The word "s'agapo" in Greek means "I love you." And the word "agapo" is the verb "I love". It generally refers to "pure", pure type of love, rather than the physical attraction. But, there are some examples of agape used to mean the same as eros. It has also been translated as "love of the soul." 

Eros is passionate love, with sensual desire and longing. The Greek word "erota" means "in love". Eros is the first felt for a person, with consideration it becomes an appreciation of the beauty within that person or even becomes appreciation of beauty itself. Eros helps the soul to remember the knowledge of beauty and contributes to an understanding of spiritual truth. Some translations list it as "love of the body." 

Philia, not passionate but pure love was a concept that Aristotle addressed and developed loyalty to friends, family, and community, and requires virtue, equality, and familiarity. Philia is motivated by practical reasons; one or both of the parties benefit from the relationship. It can also mean "love of the mind." 

Storge is natural affection, like parents that felt for their baby.  

Xenia, hospitality, was very important practice in Ancient Greece. It was an almost ritualized friendship formed between a host and his guest, who could previously have been strangers. The host fed and provided quarters for the guest, who was expected to repay only with gratitude. 

Ancient Roman (Latin) 

The Latin language have many different verbs relating to the English word "love". "amo" is the basic verb meaning "I love", with infinitive amare ("to love") as it still is in Italian today. The Romans used it both in an affectionate sense as well as in a romantic or sexual sense. From this verb come "amans" - a lover, amator, "professional lover",  often with the attached idea of lustfulness - and amica, "girlfriend" in English sense, often being applied euphemistically to a prositute. The relating noun is amor (the meaning of this word for the Romans is well illustrated in fact, that of city, Rome - in Latin: Roma - can be viewed as word play for amor, which was used as the secret name of city in wide circles in ancient times), which is also used in the plural form to show love affairs or sexual adventures. This same also produces amicus - "friends" - and amicitia, "friendship" (often based to mutual advantage, and...more closely to "indebtedness" or "influence"). Cicero wrote a treatise called On Friendship (de Amicita), which discusses the idea at some length. Ovid wrote a guide to dating called Ars Amatoria (The Art of Love), which addresses, in depth, everything from an affair to overprotective parents. 

Latin sometimes uses amare where English would simply say to like. But this idea is much more generally expressed in Latin by placere or delectare, which are used more informally, later Catulus' love poetry frequently used it. Diligere often  has idea "to be affectionate for", "to esteem", and rarely if ever is used for romantic love. This word would be appropriate to describe the friendship of two men. The relating noun diligentia, however, has the meaning of "diligence" or "carefulness", and has little semantic overlap with the verb. Observance is a synonym for diligere; despite the cognate with English, this verb and its relating noun, observantia, often means "esteem" or "affection". Caritas is used in Latin translations of the Christian Bible to mean "charitable love". 

Christianity 

Love comes from God that the Christians understand. With respect, man and woman - eros in Greek - show love to each other without hate. Hate is not a Christian way.  

There are many Greek words for "love" that are regularly referred to in Christian circles. 

New Testament define agape as charitable, selfless, and interest in one another. With parental love and training to the children, the children will be seen good in the world; it is the way God is seen to love humanity, and it is seen as the kind of love that Christians want to have for one another. And Phileo, it found to be delightful as brotherly love. 

Christians believe to love their God with all their heart, mind and strength, then to love their neighbor as themselves are most important in their lives which based on Mark 12:28-34. 

1 Corinthians 13:4-8 is the famous scripture that everybody know. I made the note of it to jot down in November. Also John 3:16, 17 everybody know that God love the world so much that He gave His and only Son. Whoever believe in Him will be saved. And John wrote the letter to Christians explain that God is love, Christian love other Christian and love each other based on 1 John 4:7, 8.  

Thomas Aquinas defined love as "to will the good of another..."This is what Christian need to do, love one another, including the enemies. To be good is succeed in life. 

Judaism 

The word "Ahava" in Hebrews is the most used term for both interpersonal love and love between God and His creations. Loving-kindness is used to describe many forms of love between human beings. 

Leviticus 19:18 tells people to love other people like themselves. The Torah's commandment in Deuteronomy 6:5 tells to "love God with all your heart, all your soul and all your might." The Jewish oral law refers to good deeds, willing to sacrifice one's life rather than doing something so wrong, willing to sacrifice one's possessions, and thank the Lord despite trouble. Love between marital partners is considered an essential ingredient to life. Scripture Ecclesiastes 9:9 says, " See life with the wife you love." Song of Solomon is considered a romantic book in the Bible. It compares to love between God and His people, but in its plain reading, reads like a love song. 

My Lovely Message For You All: Love is...

Here is my Sunday message for you:

Most people like the flower. Rose is a special flower for the loved ones.

Each lovely community is like a body that shows harmony. What attitude do it looks like? Love your brothers and your sisters no matter if they hurt your feeling. The question is: Is that okay for you to make the new friends and forget your old friends who always insult you as solution? Each of you has a right to decide.

Jesus says, Love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.-John 13:34

Solving the problem instead of argument is important. So make the peace between you and your friend.

1John 4:11 describes "God is love." This scripture means we must love one another.

Obsessing about those who insult you and want to revenge those won't help you.  So forget those who hurt your feeling and forgive those.

In your lovely community, the best way to show love is to agree with your brothers and sisters. That way have no argument.

And the <3 lovely scripture <3 1 Corinthians 13:4-7 <3 describes "Love is... <3 ":

<3 Love is patient and kind. <3
'People need clothes and food' means 'be kind to give what they need.' 'Support those who feel depressed, confused and struggled. Because of that is love and kind. Also, patient is encouraging to be positive. No matter where you live, you show love to your family, friends, your classmates, your schoolmates, your teachers, your principal, your co-workers, and your boss. Be patient, acceptable and willing to listen to those who feel mad.'

<3 Love is not jealous, it does not brag, and it is not proud. <3
'Businessman who show proud of his success and makes others jealous is called himself a hater. Different from Love. Love is applause for the businessman who he achieves his business.''When a man or woman is taken, respect his girlfriend or her boyfriend. Do not make his girlfriend or her boyfriend jealous at you by stolen her or his heart. Just respect and show love to her or him.'

<3 Love is not rude, it is not selfish, and it cannot be made angry easily. Love does not remember wrongs done against it. <3
'When you go to the sale stores like Walmart, Best Buy, Target, etc. on 28th of November's Black Friday, you will know how to not be rude and selfish. If you have time, don't blame to those who have no time for staying in a long line. Be willing to share the half of your time and that person's time.' 'Forget those who did wrong to you because of that is love.'

<3 Love is never happy when others do wrong, but it is always happy with the truth. <3
'You cannot stand with those who practice the evil thing. Like the kids in your school bully you and you cannot stand their action. Also, love require to tell the truth. Speaking lie is not showing love.'

<3 Love never gives up on people. It never stops trusting, never loses hope, and never quits. <3
'Continue to support the people, telling them that you love them. But if they blah at you, do not give up your hope and your love for them. <3 ily <3 '

1 John 3:18 is beautifully explains that love is not just word, but action shows love. And that proves Love is. <3 So be actively showing <3 to your brothers and your sisters from your lovely community. And forgive their mistake of hurting your feeling. Remember patience is virtue.

I hope you have a lovely Sunday.  Tomorrow is the new Monday. :) <3, Loi
