How do you love?

How do you love?  Do you really love? Or is it something else that you call love? I have learned to love.  At least I like to think I have.  When I was younger I didn't really understand love.  I thought love kept those you love close, by hovering over them and keeping them to yourself.  Sure love should protect, but this isn't protection it's control and controlling is not love at all. As a father of children and an adult child I have learned that love is wanting what's best for those I love, facilitating it to the best of my ability and letting the ones I love make their own choices.
I have learned to take this approach with anyone I love.  There's a few ladies I know in life, that I love dearly.  I know because of mine and their circumstances we will never be together and that's OK.  The know I care deeply and that I will do anything for them that is within moral reason.  And I have done that.  Love is NOT jealous.  For that reason I am not only OK but happy when they find and pursue successful and happy relationships.
Tell the ones you love just how you feel,  don't try to control them, facilitate them in their endeavors and do not be jealous.  Let them know they are loved and help them to feel that.
I love you my readers.  Thanks for reading.
