Here is an Excellent Sutra(Verse) on love by Lalan\n\n\nAs the man and the woman in me\n\nUnite in love,\n\nThe brilliant beauty\n\nBalanced on the two-petalled lotus\n\nWithin me\n\nDazzles my eyes.\n\nThe rays\n\nOutshine the moon\n\nAnd the jewels\n\nGlowing on the hoods of snakes.\n\n \n\nMy skin and bone\n\nAre tuned to gold.\n\nI am the reservoir of love\n\nAlive as the waves.\n\nA single drop of water\n\nHas grown into a sea,\n\nUnnavigable.

"Love is patient and kind, it is never jealous, love is never boastful or conceited, it is never rude or selfish, it does not take offence, nor is it resentful. Love takes no pleasure in others’ sins but delights in the truth; it is always ready to excuse, to trust, to hope and to endure whatever comes. Love does not come to an end. There are three things that last, faith, hope and love and the greatest of these is love"

Love God Almighty with all your heart and all your powers\nLove your neighbour as yourself\nGive alms to the poor as ye are able\nEntertain strangers\nVisit the sick\nBe merciful to prisoners\nDo ill to no man, nor consent unto such as do, for the receiver is as bad as the thief\nForgive as ye hope to be forgiven\nRedeem the captive\nHelp the oppressed\nDefend the cause of the widow and orphan\nRender righteous judgement\nDo not consent to any wrong\nPersevere not in wrath\nShun excess in eating and drinking\nBe humble and kind\nServe your liege lord faithfully\nDo not steal\nDo not perjure yourself, nor let others do so\nEnvy, hatred and violence separate men from the Kingdom of God\nDefend the Church and promote her cause.

He is talking about the truest form of love, the union between two souls, spiritual union.  Check out the website I've attached.  It will take you through the poem line by line, explaining it.\n\nGood luck with it.  I've always found John Donne's poetry a bit heavy for me.

If I speak with the languages of men and of angels, but don't have love, I have become sounding brass, or a clanging cymbal.\n\n2 If I have the gift of prophecy, and know all mysteries and all knowledge; and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but don't have love, I am nothing.\n\n3 If I dole out all my goods to feed the poor, and if I give my body to be burned, but don't have love, it profits me nothing.\n\n4 Love is patient and is kind; love doesn't envy. Love doesn't brag, is not proud,\n\n5 doesn't behave itself inappropriately, doesn't seek its own way, is not provoked, takes no account of evil;\n\n6 doesn't rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth;\n\n7 bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.\n\n8 Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will be done away with. Where there are various languages, they will cease. Where there is knowledge, it will be done away with.\n\n9 For we know in part, and we prophesy in part;\n\n10 but when that which is complete has come, then that which is partial will be done away with.\n\n11 When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I felt as a child, I thought as a child. Now that I have become a man, I have put away childish things.\n\n12 For now we see in a mirror, dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I will know fully, even as I was also fully known.\n\n13 But now faith, hope, and love remain-these three. The greatest of these is love.\n\n\nThat is love. xxxxxx

This is what I found... hope it helps\n\n\nThe Child Angel\nby Rabindranath Tagore\n\nLet your life come amongst them like a flame of light, my child,\nunflickering and pure, and delight them into silence.\n\nThey are cruel in their greed and their envy,\ntheir words are like hidden knives thirsting for blood.\n\nGo and stand amidst their scowling hearts, my child,\nand let your gentle eyes fall upon them like the\nforgiving peace of the evening over the strife of the day.\n\nLet them see your face, my child, and thus know the\nmeaning of all things, let them love you and love each other.\n\nCome and take your seat in the bosom of the limitless, my child.\nAt sunrise open and raise your heart like a blossoming flower,\nand at sunset bend your head and in silence\ncomplete the worship of the day.

Empathy is the foundation of love.  See each person as a human being, with their own struggles, hopes, dreams, pain and suffering, regardless of their religion.  Remember that each person is a little child, a mature person with responsibilities, an aged person near death.  If you see each one as a human, you can only love them.

Love.\n\nIn the end, it's all about love.  Even the law is about love.  \n\nWe don't always know what's best for us.  We don't always know what love is.  We think strong feelings are love.  How many people in the world control, manipulate, abuse, and even kill in the name of love.  What do we know about love?\n\nLove is when you do what is best for someone else.  When you put them first.\n\nWe have our own desires to contend with.  The law was given to us to teach us how to balance our desires with loving others.\n\n“Teacher, which is the great commandment in the law?”\nJesus said to him, “‘You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.’ This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like it: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets.”  Matthew 22:36-40\n\nWe don't even know how to properly love ourselves.  We have addictions and vices and disorders.  We don't want to obey because it's not fun and it's difficult.\n\nWhat if it's the best thing for us?  What if obedience is best, not because we fear some retribution later, but because it ultimately makes us into someone we love being right here and now?  Someone who is able to love God and others deeply and completely?\n\nI don't know why Mr. Shaw believes that "God doesn't do happy."  Maybe he's thinking more along the lines of giddy rather than joyous?\n\nFor whom the LORD loves He corrects,\nJust as a father the son in whom he delights.\nProverbs 3:12\n\n The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD,\n And He delights in his way.\nPsalm 37:23\n\n But let him who glories glory in this,\n That he understands and knows Me,\n That I am the LORD, exercising lovingkindness, \njudgment, and righteousness in the earth.\n For in these I delight,” says the LORD.\nJeremiah 9:24

Instead of cursing the darkness, light a candle.\n-Rabindranath Tagore

Love does not consist in gazing at each other, but in looking outward together in the same direction.\n\nSome love lasts a lifetime. True love lasts forever.\n\nThose whom true love has held, it will go on holding.\n\nFor true love is inexhaustible; the more you give, the more you have. And if you go to draw at the true fountainhead, the more water you draw, the more abundant is its flow. \n\n\nWe don't believe in rheumatism and true love until after the first attack. \n \nTrue love comes quietly, without banners or flashing lights. If you hear bells, get your ears checked. \n \nThe energy of Love is the force that binds the world. This is the energy we all exist on. This energy runs through you and you act like a filter for it. When you experience an absence of love or love is lacking in a situation, your filter is unclear. True love is simply experiencing this energy without the distortions of a muddy filter. True love is the acceptance of others without judgement and of course to do this you need to love and accept yourself first.

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails. . . –1 Corinthians 13:4-8

Divine Master, grant me the Serenity \nTo accept the things I cannot change, \nThe Courage to change those things that I can, \nAnd the Wisdom to know the difference. \nLiving one day at a time, \nEnjoying one moment at a time, \nAccepting hardship as the Pathway to Peace. \n\nLord, make me an instrument of thy Peace;\nWhere there is hatred, let me sow Love;\nWhere there is injury, Pardon;\nWhere there is doubt, Faith;\nWhere there is despair, Hope;\nWhere there is darkness, Light;\nAnd where there is sadness, Joy.\n\nDivine Master, grant that, I may not so much seek\nTo be consoled as to Console;\nTo be understood as to Understand;\nTo be loved as to Love.\n\nFor it is in Giving that, we receive.\nIt is in Pardoning that we are pardoned,\nAnd it is in dying, we are born to eternal life.\nSo mote it be (Amen).
