Mans greatest need is to LOVE for that is the essence of our being.It is not so much that we love anything, but like sunshine, that love cannot be suppressed. Our second great need is to be loved. all things seem to form a circle. "God dwells within you as you". we have union with God in unconditional love within our hearts. As the colors of the rainbow are contained within sunlight, so to are we all contained within the light of Gods unconditional love.

I always love to love. Lol, does that make sense. When I love someone, I became a better person for that someone, caring someone and having someone that I cherish, its good to live a life like that. So I would love to choose to love rather than being loved, you dont actually feel the ultimate happiness when its only 1 sided but I choose the 1 side one. I dont know why, people might think im stupid but I want to choose to love than to be loved.

Be loved. It's always nice to know that someone else cares about you.

that is a really tough question. i think i would rather love than be loved. i think to be loved without loving would be really selfish and i dont think that it would suit me. i would much rather to love someone because i enjoy careing for someone else, even though its hard when the other person doesnt feel the same.

I know that it's better to love than be loved. There is a saying, "It is better to have loved and lost, than to have not loved at all." Well, that's really so difficult to do! It's very hard to deal with heartaches! Now that I think about it, I think that human love is not perfect, unlike what the other type of love they call "divine love." So, since we are not perfect, we cannot just simply 'die for the person we love,' or take the ultimate sacrifice of loving someone even if that someone doesn't love you back. That's why in order to fulfill the essence and joy of love, I need to be loved. Wouldn't that be better? Haha.
