Valentine's Day

OMG...the post is all red today...that's because I'm in love, and red is the color for love & passion, isn't it?


Just like Dia dos Namorados in Brazil, Valentine's Day is a special day reserved to tell people you love how much you love them. A bit different from the worldwide celebration, in Brazil boyfriends and girlfriends are the ones who, every June 12, get present, chocolate, flowers, love cards, etc. In Valentine's the cool thing is to reward everyone you really like with a gift. 

Valentine's Day receives this name after Saint Valentine.



And...here's a question for you: 


What is LS2VE all about?

  1. Love is all about... This is the question, but, for me, it can contain a lot of the answer. Love is all about dot, dot, dot. Kind of a mystery is involved in this theme. People have discussed about love since many generations ago, and each person could give a different definition for love because it is deeply related to each one´s experiences and beliefs. I think that a static sentence couldn´t define what love is about. But I would say, that for me, love involves opening your labyrinths for another person, breaking the wall that divides people, going through unknown ways looking for your own ground, carrying not only about yourself, expressing your essence, seeing beyond what the eyes can show, and, of course, taking the risks!

  2. Love is about... not only a feeling that you have about a crush or a date, love is something that you cant measure, love is something that you can feel about anything in the world, you just have to open your heart to that person and share a good experience with her, love is about showing how much you care about that person, love is what makes you pass your life not only on hate or just an non-sense relationship with someone or something, love makes you feel alive!So let love be part of your life and spread love to the world, because life ins meaningless without the blinding flame of love!

  3. I don’t know exactly what love is all about. But I have some ideas… Love is about allow yourself to be what you are, while you’re open to the other. It’s being open to fears, uncertainties, insecurities, to conflicts. It’s being able to share. It’s knowing that nothing is perfect, but that problems can be solved, that everything contributes for growing. It’s a gradual and constructed feeling. It develops from the living and the experiences, it grows every obstacle overcome. Love is the balance between you and the other, it must be mutual.

    1. Mutuality...that's hard considering people are so different...however, you put things in a perspective that, without fear, all kind of love is possible! I do believe so!

  4. Roberto Freire once said: “Because I love you, you do not need me. Because you love me, I do not you. On love, we never let ourselves complete. We are, for each other, delightfully unnecessary.”* There are a lot of types of love. It’s impossible to define a “real” meaning to it. Otherwise love is when you don’t need anyone to be happy, you can be by yourself and share with someone you like. It isn’t about rescue, like the prince charming does; it’s about to run and fight together. It’s to understand that are a lot of people in the world and learn from them. It’s about to be open to sharing and learning. It’s about to discovered you and fight with yourself. Breaking the walls and building bridges. (Caroline Perina)

  5. Of all the people I know, I consider myself the most romantic, but unfortunately, for me to describe love is very complicated, and also a sin! Once I read that is better not to see the true face of love, he is mysterious, uncertain, unpredictable, and extremely powerful. I agree with every comma! love is very intense, both positively and negatively! There are the bad loves like "Love you away from me" and there are those who can make us weak in the knees without ground! For me, love is what keeps me alive! What gives me energy! It's my love for my desires, for my family, friends, and of course, passions!

  6. Well, I can say that I'm learning a lot about what love really is, as you know, Pedro, I'm dating for two years and in this meantime I've been finding mutually with my girlfriend, which is the closest synonym for this elusive word.
    I find it very difficult, in fact impossible, to say for sure what's the real meaning for this feeling, because it is very embracing and inconstant, varying from person to person. But in my humble opnion, love depends on differences and defects, because dealing with the good qualities, everyone can, but great ones, those who deal with the defects. As I said before, love is something fickle, subject to peaks of happiness as well as sadness declines. So a great love story also depends, of persistence and complicity of both parties.

  7. Love is about caring for people you love, try to always give the maximum for them, love is worrying, and want to be next to the person at all times, good or bad.
    The love between couples is magical because of all the people who exist in the world, the couple chose to have a side by side, to be faithful, confidential.
    Love is not easy, but when all you want is to make the other person happy, always be by your side no matter what happens, love becomes stronger.
    But there is not only the love between couples, the love of family is one of the nicest there is, one who protects.
    Love makes us better and happier people.

  8. When people talk about love, what they usually really want is an equation to perfection, a sum that tells what are the right things to do and the righ person to look for. This common way of seeing love leads you to like something and look for it in someone, but not necessarily like this someone. And for me, love is about not truly knowing why it happens, it needs to be mutual but doesn't need to be explained. As said in comments above, it takes you to be opened to new things, to new horizons and experiences, it takes freeing yourself from any sort of prejudice. And isn't about loving the others imperfections, but learning how to deal with them.
    Is much more than a single feeling, is the will to make things keep going.

  9. Definitely love isn’t an easy thing…it’s something changeable and inconstant. People are continually changing their mind, that’s why it’s hard to think about a relationship that’s always in the same way.
    When you love someone, you have to trust and be trusted, but trust is not a simple thing, so love turns difficult. Most of the people think that dating is easy, but they don’t know how is difficult to know a person, support, help, understand, teach, learn, and accept the bad things. I used to think that love was simple, but having this feeling, I know that’s similar to a breath mint, sweet but burned.
    Love isn’t about find someone who completes you, it’s about find a person who lives incomplete with you, but respect and admires your complete half.

  10. It's when one finds out that shares her/his soul with another body. It is not for the weaks. It is being able to share, to waive, willing to learn, to forgive and to indulge.

    The matter is not about feeling, it is about loving the right things, The thought is not master of itself, however, it can get carried by the loves we have. Feeling or knowing, none of them is a reliable guide. Before following either, one must learn how to choose his/her objects of love -- and the criterion of choice is: What are the things that, if depended on me, should last forever? There are some things that are briefly good, others, for a while. Only a few are eternal.

  11. I'm not able to say what is love, and i guess nobody is. It's something that you can't explain, something that makes you mad. Love can make your life better, or it can hit you really hard, just like having your body beaten by Anderson Silva, or worse than that. But the Valentine's day is not all about boyfriends and girlfriends, it's about everyone you like, your friends, your family, about demonstrating to people that you like them and that they make the difference in your life. So, go on, do that, and make the people you like know that, make their life better, and maybe they'll make yours. Juliana Fonseca

  12. Love! A wise teacher once told me that love comes by surprise, we're never waiting, just happens. Do not choose with whom, where, and when, is something so perfectly planned by fate that is sometimes hard to believe.
    For the love, people do not need to be perfect individually, but perfect for each other, learn to love the qualities and live with the defects. Respect, loyalty, passion and sincerity are essential for good coexistence. Love is everything and it is nothing to try to quantify it all, and to live with it, do not need anything but it. Thinking on his happiness before yours, do everything with love without expecting anything in return.
    A life can not revolve around love, love has to revolve around the life!

  14. I don't know what love is and I don't think anyone really knows, or maybe everybody knows but can't explain it because love is something you feel and it is hard to explain your feelings, especially because love can be expressed in many forms. I can only say that, for me, love is something that makes you get out of your comfort zone, that drives you crazy and makes you thing something is wrong with you and the world. But love is not all bad, there are many kinds of love. There is love between family, friends, pets, etc. Overall, love can drive you crazy, but it can also make you feel happier than you've ever felt before and can change someone, for better or worse.

  15. Love is all about ... I don't think I'm really prepared to define this, because love is something built lifelong, however, with my little experience, I could say that it is the result of living with someone who provides you the feeling of the deep concept of being well and happy, so believing in love at first sight and supposing that it is real even when having totally different opinions from each other is naive.
    The most interesting thing about love is not defining it, but realizing what it can do with your life and things around you, for example, some song become THAT song, or THAT place, or THAT day... adding special meanings that once seemed unimaginable to be important.

  17. Love it's not just words, it's not just actions, not just a feeling. It's a state of mind, a state of sipirit. It's unexplainable, it's not possible to be separeted in little pieces. Maybe love don't exist as one thing, but as a group of things togheter. To love someone you have to trust it, make everythings that you can to make the other happy, and share your life with the person, share the best moments. Otherwise, it's not love.

  19. What is Love all about?
    There is so many answers to this little question. That is because love cant be define.
    A feeling that is beautifull and nice for some people can be awful to others, and that is what makes love so unpredictable and so different for each person.
    But if love is so different for everyone... What is love all about?
    Taking risks, follow our heart, do crazy things for crazy reasons...
    Love is sharing what is best in you, is being kind and generous, is think in the person you love first place, is being there to help and care even when the person dont deserv it.
    Love brings hope, and sometimes that is all we need.

  20. What is love all about...
    Love can’t be described, everyone has a form of defining love, you need to feel the love, you need to know love in your own way.
    But for me love is when the other person’s happiness is more important than your own, is when you don’t think just about yourself but also about the other person and how to make them happy everyday; It's a feeling that makes you smile just thinking about that one person and all the stupid things that you do to make love happen. Love is also saying yes when the whole world says no.
    Love is a ruthless game, unless you play it good and right.

  21. WHAT LOVE IS ALL ABOUT?

    First, love is a thing that we cannot analyse or discuss, since that this is sensation that can oscillate through one to another person, but we can have a good perspection about what it is.
    Love isn't an easy subject to put in the table, for me personally. Some people have a good explanation and a good notion of what is love, and others don't, but all of them have in mind that this is an inexplicable feeling. Most of the people would put their lives in danger to save a people that they love. Accepting or not, everybody has a bit of love in their hearts, that can be in an object or in a living thing.
    A sense of love feeling can be different from one to another, such as those types of person that, after a huge "excavation", you can see that she can feel love normally.

  22. Love is about...
    I don’t think that I’m prepared to define this, but I think love is about sacrifice, is thinking about the others before thinking about yourself, whether for your parents, family, friends or ‘’that special person’’, about help and protect. Everyone has a form of defining and showing love, sometimes people show love by simple or big things. Love is our destiny, we don’t find a meaning to our lives alone, we find with the other. Love is sharing your best, being nice and kind and respectful. Is about giving without expecting anything back. We’re never waiting for it, it just...happens.

  23. Love is all about human interaction. It is a feeling that makes us care about others and thus live in harmony, while also tempting us to make new bonds.
    Love may differ from relantionship to relationship: People fell diferente about people they love depending on their role in each other’s life. The way you fell about friends is propably very diferent than how you fell about family, parents, grandparents and romantic interest.
    It may also mean diferent things over time. For example: in the past, people had many mates and fewer parentes (since the life expectancy of that time was very low). They probably understood love in a diferent way than we do today.

  24. Love is all about... I think that someone can ride a book explaning the definition of love. I dont think that love has a rite definition, but also can be a lot of thinks. For example a simple “I love you” can mean so many tinks for someone. A simple act also can mean love. Love could be the love that you for your parents, love of a friend or love couples, boyfriends.
    Love overall is respect, share your feelings, be nice and most important : Yourself to someone. You can search for love on Google and it will show you that love is desire, attraction, passion, and etc. So, what is love for you ? Love for me can be a simple act like someone do something nice to me or say that he wants me on all his live. Malu Novaes

  26. Love is a feeling, and a very complicated feeling. It isn’t like others feelings that you have more control, that are good or bad. Love is unpredictable, a feeling that you have for people you really care about and you really want to be together. Love is a thing that no one control, that no one know how it works, and we can’t discuss about it because every person has a different way of loving, it is never the same. For me love isn’t na easy thing to talk about and I’m not prepared to really define this on my way, but I think it is all about be happy with someone and the rest doesn’t really matter much.

  27. Love is about... I don't know how I can describe the "love", because I think I never loved anyone, but I think the love is one feeling that a person feels for another, is when you like the company, when you do many thinks for this person, when you stay beside of that person, in bad or good moments, doens't matter if the person is happy or sad, you still beside her!! I think when I love someone, I will do my best, I think I won't drop that person for anything!! But I don't know, because love is too complicated!

  29. Love is about a feeling that is hard to explain, can bring happiness, sadness, hatred, friendship, passion, obsession, affection, among others. Many people express your feelings with cards, music, hugs, kisses…
    I think love has no control, it’s involuntary and unexpected. Everyone has feeling and someday loves one people and this people has destiny to her love.
    Valentine’s Day is the day of love and the peoples of the world exchange love, is different in Brazil the “dia dos namorados” is only for the couple.
    Everyone should exchange love one day of month to always remember the other and not only itself.

  30. I don`t know how i can describe the love, but i think the love in the sense of the dictionary, is a feeling of warmth or affection for another person. This love can be fraternal, paternal, family, love for animals ... The love also has a social role, feeding actions and feelings of solidarity.In my opinion, there`s not just a word, a phrase, a gesture or one action to designate what is love. There are inumerous and possible ways to show each other what is love. But this topic is very very complicated!!! It`s complicated for the world.

  31. So here comes a difficult question...After all, what is this thing called Love all about? Actually, for me, this is quite a tough question. First of all, love is not only about couples that have affect each other. Love is a feeling that is inside of us humans each day of our lives. It‘s also about having passion with sport, reading a book, or doing your favorite hobbie...Love envolves people aroud you to share moments of your life, like friends and family. For example, when my grandma cooks something for the family she says“well the recipe is all about love ”. Love can also hurt, create pain.To conclude, love can mean a thousand meanings... Love keeps you alive, and if you also use this magical feeling with your self, by loving YOU(first of all), you'll be more secure and confident about you. Saga Bjork

  32. For me, love is all about trust. You have to trust the person you are dating, a relationship without trust is full of fights and misunderstandings. And it isn’t just related to a person you’re dating, it also happens in friendships too.
    Love is all about respect too. You have to respect each other beliefs and decisions, you can’t tell them what to do with their lives. You may help them, but it’s their lives, they believe in what they want to and do what they want to do.
    If you don’t respect and trust that person, than you’re not ready to be in a relationship with him or her, be it a friendship or anything else.

  33. Love is all about confidence, discovering new sensations, learning to forgive, to listen, to be patient, to control jealousy and think before you speak. I guess I just felt true love once, and I think just loved once too, but it is a love for a different and superior person. I hope for the day when I’ll find someone to love, even if it is a friend or a family member. I hope you all ever can feel the true love because it gives meaning to life and it’s great. When you love, you feel like you’ll do anything for your special someone, because love is about it too.

  36. There is a lot of ways to love, but for me, love should be all about caring about someone. Because even if you're attracted to that person, if you don't care about him/her, it's a very selfish love. When you sacrifice some of your things, when you're willing to change for that person, that's when there's care, and there's when there's love. But don't misunderstand me: don't be a slave of somebody. If someone is pushing too hard, making you do things you shoudn't be doing, acting like he/she owns you, that's not love either. That's abuse. The best way is to balance everything to make it comfortable for you and your lover.

  37. One way to feel, interact, react, totally nice to any heart: the Love
    The love is a different feel that any people have, it's all about peoples want one to other.
    When our brain recognizes an attraction of someone, can be an attractive person or a familiar person for example, he automatically send a message to the heart. Then heart starts an quickly beat and you stay calm, sometimes enthusiastic.
    But, do you really have a soulmate?
    To summarize, every people will meet her soulmate, they just will meet,will know and understand one to another until they feel love.
    A person, for sure was made one to another , but they just don't know it yet.
