Table topics: What is LOVE?

Josiah: I did not grew up with a father. He died when I was just 4 years old and my mother did not re-marry. I did not have much memory of him but I did remember a few things. Few things like, when he comes home from work I get very excited because he usually brings me some snacks. Or if he don't have a snack with him, he would bring me to a snack bar and buy me bread and softdrinks. It made me feel so important.I also remember that when somebody asks him if I am his kid, he would always say, "Yes, he is my only boy." And while saying this, you can see the pride in his eyes and you can hear the excitement in his voice. This made me feel so special. And when he was about to die, he scolded me and he got so angry at me for no reason. I cried and cried and run away. Later on, I learned that he died after seeing me go away. My sister told me that his last words to my mom and her was to take care of the family. He knew he was going to die and he does not want me to see him die. He wants me to have a very wonderful memory of a strong father.

Now what is love? I believe love is when you make a person, your kid, your spouse, your parents, or your lover, feel important. I believe love is when somebody asks you, if the person is related to you in some way, you say it in with pride in your eyes and excitement in your voice. You can say, "That's my mother!", or "That's my father!" or "That's girlfriend!", "yes, that's my boyfriend!", "That's my girlfriend!", or "That's my kid!" I believe love is when, even in your last breathe you want the person will have a great memory of you.
