Love : What does it all Mean ?

Love : What does it all Mean ?

Let me share my personal out pouring about love !
What does love mean ? What is love ?
I am actually wondering , amazed and enjoying at the word love . It is such an over charged and loaded word. We use it so easily and comfortably . It means so many things to so many people that I am not sure what it really means anymore !
This most wonderful feeling and emotion is universal to all humans across all cultures , races and religions . It is a complex and complicated emotion .
In the name of love we kill and get killed !
In the name of love we care and become careless !
We become useful in love and also abusive in love !
Love is peaceful , love is violent !
Love heals , love kills !
Genuine love among lovers can be seen as a morally wrong issue and many a lover throughout history had to pay a heavy price ! After their death , we sing praises , write stories and recite poems in their honour ! We kill our most lovable people and than we build statues , religions and what not after we have destroyed them ! We are a strange species !
Now look at the kind of love we have ! We become so possessive , attached , demanding , selfish that the very love that we are suppose to enjoy becomes a misery and starts to suffocate us !
Love can be so freeing ,liberating and selfless that one once to dance , sing and enjoy .
Love is so intoxicating that being in love is the highest drug to achieve happiness and joy .
On the other hand , we have love that is controlling , manipulative , corrupted , fearful and suppressive! 
In the name of love we can be so creative and constructive and motivated . Nothing inspires us as love can ! As , someone said , give him an army of motivated lovers and they will be able to perform miracles !
Love constricts and love expands .
Love is all around and yet some have never experiences it !
Some say , love is blind , love is madness !
Love is simply beyond any mans concepts .
We can express or explain love in any form or style .
Sometimes , I feel that the word means nothing and everything at the same time !
Love is a feeling , a thinking , a seeing , a touching , smelling , a tasting . It can be expressed by all senses and beyond to !
In Tantric tradition , which was practiced or may still be practiced in some parts of India , love was taken to a whole new level ! Love with the whole body/mind through the power of sex was a way to being one with the creative Oneness ! 
Much of ancient Hinduism and even today is around the energies that we have and are ! Love is the most awesome energy that we have and yet few can really understand its nature !
Love can take us to very low moral levels and the same love can also take us to the highest levels possible .
We can become an animal in love or we can also become a god !
We have conditions in love and now we also have unconditional love !
Conditions I can understand or accept . What is unconditional love ? 
If I don't care for outcomes , results or any expectations , is that unconditional love ?!
Is just letting it be as you or I wish known as love without conditions ?!
I am still wanting to understand unconditional love ?
Is God's love unconditional ? ( What , Who or Whatever that means , please don't ask me ! )
Is God loving or non loving ?! I personally don't want to go in that direction today .
So , love is complex and complicated , as I just told you some time ago .
Love had conditions , I can understand ! Unconditional love just means what ? I am still working at that . Maybe , we should express conditionally unconditional love !! 
What is that ? I simply don't know !
Love is No-thing and it is Everything ! 
I end here today .
Til we meet again .
Love.
Amar.
