    yes i do

    i think its a little like child birth.... after a while you forget the pain of the loss and just remember the love and the good times

    Of course I agree. If it weren't for that I would have never met my husband. We both loved and lost...but we found love again and now we know how to appreciate each other, learn from our mistakes and make our marriage the beautiful relationship we always wanted.

    I do agree with the quote... because love is beautiful

    I completely agree with that ... needless to say we all grow and as well learn within love. In lost, you still have someone in your heart that has touched it - that can never be taken away.

    i agree with the quote.

    it's better to love someone n lost him than never have loved at all.

    i loved my ex-boyfren dearly but lost him to an accident 2 years ago. i am thankful that fate has made our paths crossed in life n for me to get to love him with all my heart in my lifetime. i'm also thankful that i get to experience the love he gave me though only that short period of time.

    yup. it's better to be loved n lost rather than never to be loved at all.

    I dont agree.

    Dear friend, when you want to be loved, you are expecting and demanding love. Love doesn't works this way...

    Rather you should love even to those too who hate you. This is the only way to be loved actually. And once you will be loved, you would feel more and more desire to live.

    Rather I would say.......better to have loved and live longer and there is nobody who never have loved at all.

    Thanks

    Yes I do agree , love is belongingness / sharing special moments etc etc . Without love ,not worth to be known as human .

    i sort of agree....it depends on what sort of person you are...if you can handle losing a person then yea...i say defenately...but if you get all emo and depressed for like ever if you lose the one you love then its not totally worth it because you end up hurting your self also....but its always good to go out there and try new things ...love and be loved...yea...so i agree to an extent

    Yes, because I have experienced it first hand. The catch to it is eventually you can love again if you are patient. But neither time can be compared to the other.

    Yes.

    After 54 years on this planet, the closest I have come to trying to determine the "meaning of life" is the answer "to love".
