Can Love Coquer all??
We all have heard it "With love, all things can be conquered", but can they truly? Is love immortal? Can it die...or do we simply grow beyond the need for the love of an individual?
I am curious as to the opinons on this subject. I have often wondered but will reserve comment until I see differing opinions

Re: Can Love Coquer all??
HI,
I have heard this too many times, and right off the bat I want to say yes it can, speaking from my own life I have finally met my soul mate, we have had past life regressions and have been together in many life times. I love him dearly, love gets a bum wrap these days do to all the turmoil we have, the economy and such. We are often clouded in out love and judgement do to bills, jobs, kids and many other reasons, these things weigh us down and at times weigh down our love for another person. these things can unfortunately break us down, we have to keep alive within us why we love the person we do and then love can conquer lifes problems.

Re: Can Love Coquer all??
OOOOH, love the pic. I am learning that love does not conquer all. I believe it DOES have the ability to, however, several other elements must accompany love, such as acceptance, perseverence and patience. I have to accept that there will be bad days, persevere in trying to let love conquer, and be patient with myself because I don't want to have to work that hard to remember it all. LOL

Re: Can Love Coquer all??
I beleive that true love is a powerfull thing. True love is the kind of love found between a mother and child. I also think that the strength of love lies within the individual. How many of us have had ex lovers that we loved beyond all else and later come to despise them? I feel as if love is an important learning tool, that once we come to a point that we have learned all we can, that love begins to fade, no longer necessary in our spirits search for learning. Some loves never end , like parent/child love and soul mates, because all threw our lives we continue to learn and grow from these loves. So, yes I beleive it can conquer anything.....and nothing at all
But I love the diferent veiws on this!!!!

Re: Can Love Coquer all??
When it comes to the love of a mate....I don't think that love is always enough. I am married to a man whom I truly love, and whom I have shared other lifetimes with. But this lifetime, we have spent 17 years together, but his addictions are getting the better of us. No matter how much I love him, or he loves me....this addiction seems to be stronger. I hate to give up on him, but I have done all I can do this time around. It is up to him....and it is a battle I think he cannot win. So for my own sake, I must let him go...and it breaks my heart.
As for the love I have for my child...that will never die, or ever be lost...it will go on forever!

Re: Can Love Coquer all??
I agree (and we need to get together...we got LOTS in common ) I beleive some loves we need untill we die...like the love of our children. Some loves we grow beyond...what was acceptable at one point no longer being acceptable further down the road.
I am glad we started this section with this thread. I meant this section as kind of a support group atmosphere. Stressers on marriages and relationships happen virtually everyday of our lives. I know that many of us have things we just need to dump if only to have our feelings validated. It is easy to be strong when you know that your feelings are valid. Here , we can remind eachother
If we dont need this section, vote in polls about adding/deleting sections. I know though when i have a fight with paul and i sit down and write a 2 page post...i feel better, then when my friends come in with advice and validation...i feel 2 times better.

Re: Can Love Coquer all??
On one hand.. ya would say yeah... without much heistation.. however... just to take the avocate view for a second.. it is possible to love some one very much... but not LiKE them anymore.... Ive had this one happen personaly.. where I love and still do love.. but cant stand to be around them....as they are not as I once knew.. I still love them.. but it dont get over the fact I dont like them much at all.. there are two in fact this way in my life.. one a former mate... and one a relative...wouldnt spend time with them if you paid me.. but I still love them both.. so hows that for a brain teaser....

Re: Can Love Coquer all??
I would like to think love can conquer all things, and maybe it can, but not always in the way we want it too. Love gets us through it all. I will always love my second husband, but I love myself enough to leave him, for my own good.
I think self-love must come first...Something I am still working on.....

Very true Astara! and i think we often forget that self love is the most important love there is...even more important then parental love at times Vic!

Re: Can Love Coquer all??
In my opinion, love can't conquer all things because there are some situations I have found myself in where the person is empty of love and consideration for anyone else. And they have a free will to totally remain that way if that is what they want. But in that case I believe that love can still conquer ME and help me to deal with the hurts and frustrations.........and this is just as good, and gives me peace.

Re: Can Love Coquer all??
I think love can conquer all. Love in ourselves, in what we believe and the mate or soulmate we are with are all parts of that.
Even though, life throws us a curve sometimes, as long as you have love in something you can manage through.
From my own experience, when i was with my exwife Vanessa, I loved her deeply, more even than I did myself - she was the world to me. All the bills, troublesome neighbours and all mattered nothing as long as we both had each other.
So, in that respect and to return from rambling too much in my case I would say it does.

Re: Can Love Coquer all??
hey guys...
l'm not entirely sure how odl this threadis, but l'm guessing it dont mind if l post something about it...
can love conquere all? l hope so... dont know what l'll do if it dont, because l'm finding myself in a dilemma l simply dont know the answer to... l can't give any details, really, because l dnt know how much sam's willing to divulge, but there's a lot going on. we're not having trouble relationship wise, quite the opposite in fact, but....my mind keeps revolving around something, and it seems if l'm not careful l could end up hurting someone l care deeply about, and hurting my reltionship with sam, but... what if somethings meant to be, but youre so afraid to try it that you miss out on a wonderful opportunity?
damn. l know this doesn't make sense, but honestly, l hope someone out there knows the answer... l'm so blasted confused right now that... l dont even know what to say. can love conquer all? l hope so... with work, and l dnt know whta else, l hope so... maybe a little bit of a blessing.
laurie.
