    In the joy of a child, the summer breeze, the sun on my face, a great song, good food and company, a great movie - my love of life.

    My love of people is looking at the good qualities .... everyone has them. I try to love people like christ loves us!

    Bisexuals can choose to be primarily heterosexual or primarily homosexual, well it's not so much a choice I guess, but anyways... You could be bisexual, and I've heard that bisexuality can vary based on age, and you can like women more at a certain point in life, and men more at other points in life. You comment on something that could have prevented you from realizing you had a sexual orientation that was different from heterosexual. You said you hated homosexuals, if you are bisexual or homosexual then this is called internalized homophobia. This is where you cannot accept homosexuality in yourself to the point where you're suppressing it so much that you start to externalize that, and you basically wish to suppress other homosexuals, because they're doing what you don't allow yourself to do. In other words you hate them because you're jealous of them. This should hold true for bisexuality as well, if you were oppressing your same-sex attraction before. So that's some food for thought for you. It basically means there is no secondary homosexuality or bisexuality, just that you oppressed it previously. You may not even be able to comprehend that you did previously because denial is a very very powerful thing. Some people for instance become married, have kids, and only come to terms with it later on when the pressures of youth are gone. So you may not have "turned" but instead have come to terms with your true self. I say explore further, do some further self discovery. Above all else, be true to yourself, and be happy.

    The ancient Greeks had several words to describe love

    Eros- self love- an example of this is selfish love-

    Agape- unconditional love- like that of a parent to a child.

    There is another which I cannot remember what it is called - but it refers to brotherly love. The love of another- like you would have for a good friend.

    We all experience these different types of love form time to time. And where we all think we try to loves others unconditionally, we all for short of our goal. However, this should not stop us form giving it our best effort.

    I thought I knew what love was...and then my child was born. There is no love like that of a mother to her baby.
