What is Love?

This question was asked to a group of 4-8 year olds, "What does love mean?"
The answers they gave were broader and deeper than anyone could have imagined.
You will be surprised:

"When someone loves you, the way they say your name is different. You just know that your name is safe in their mouth." Billy - age 4

"Love is when my mommy makes coffee for my daddy and she takes a sip before giving it to him, to make sure the taste is OK." Danny - age 7

"If you want to learn to love better, you should start with a friend who you hate," Nikka - age 6

"Love is when you tell a guy you like his shirt, then he wears it everyday." Noelle - age 7

"Love is like a little old woman and a little old man who are still friends even after they know each other so well." Tommy - age 6

"Love is when Mommy sees Daddy smelly and sweaty and still says he is handsomer than Robert Redford." Chris - age 7

"Love is when Papa, Mama and mei mei are around..." Jade - age 4

Isnt their answers surprisingly better than we adults can think of!! Their honest meaning of love is so innocent and pure.
