HOW DO YOU DEFINE LOVE?
Is it the feeling you share with your romantic partner?
Is it the bond you have with a family member or friend?
Is it the care you give back to yourself after a stressful week?
Is it all of the above? Could it be even more?
DEFINING LOVE: a poetic picture of a healthy heart
Defining Love: A Poetic Picture of a Healthy Heart is meant to shine a light of exploration into what “Love” is through a journey of poetic writings and graphic art.
Just as light breaks into individual colors to form a spectrum, this series of poems highlights six individual facets of Virtue to tell a united story of Love.
LOVE GIVES.
We can give Love in many ways, and to multiple audiences. Our love can be tough, or it can be nurturing.
LOVE RECEIVES.
With Gratitude, we can receive love through all the same channels we give, spanning past, present and future.
LOVE PERSEVERES.
Through our Will to act or our strength to restrain, Love should always be the end goal at the end of our courageous battle.

Love is the goal, but Wisdom is the way. Analyzing our next move helps us define the best path forward.

To Love means to understand and give Grace to error and imperfection—of ourselves, each other, and this world.
love unifies.
To Love is to understand that we are in Unity with something bigger than just ourselves. We are all unique beings inside a larger garden.
