It must be love, love, love!

Well it is Valentine's day and Love is in the air, or so to speak on the cloud as well via Facebook, Twitter and all other social media. Now this makes me think..Love is a simple combination of complex emotions. Love is universal. It comes in one size, fits all. Blessed are those who are loved, for they have the greatest riches of all. And even gratified are those who care to love, for they are beyond riches.
Love surrounds us in inexplicable ways..and there are so many times to which we can look back and exclaim, "It must be love!"


Here is my list of "It must be love" moments, just my way of acknowledging the love I have felt and come across in my life:

It must be love. Take #1 -

A 9 yr old boy running home so that his 4 yr old sister can have that lick of ice-cream before it melts...and does the same even after 20 years.


It must be love. Take #2 -

An elderly gentleman waiting for more than half an hour at a secluded bus stop so that his daughter doesn't have to walk the road back home alone at night.


It must be love. Take #3 -

An old lady standing hours on aching legs, cooking a meal for her son who is coming home after years. She remembers his favorite dish.


It must be love. Take #4 -

A girl carrying loads of sweets and savories from her home, because her friend stays away from home and she doesn't get to enjoy all these delicacies.


It must be love. Take #5 -

A young boy traveling half way across the town to ensure his girl reaches home safely. Who cares if he has to travel the same distance back, alone in the middle of a rainy night.


It must be love. Take #6 -

The strict teacher who decides just to wait 5 more mins in the pretext of arranging papers, just for that slow kid who desperately wants to finish writing his exam paper.


It must be love. Take #7 -

A young man, desperately wanting to come home after a rather long day, believing that the comfort from one cup of warm tea from his wife will set everything alright.


It must be love. Take #8 -

An old couple struggling their way through computers and internet, to get in touch with their children in another land, spending hours to finally connect, just to see their faces for 5 mins - and the smile it leaves on their faces for the entire day is a sight to behold!


It must be love. Take #9 -

A young lady multitasking her way through work and home, just to bake that cake in time before her husband arrives ;-) (I had to speak about myself!!)


It must be love. Take #10 -

Not to forget, your pets cheering up to greet you every morning and every time you come home. You may think it is the food...but I would like to believe, it must also be love!


The list can go on and on..I decided only to list down the first ten that came to my mind. Feel free to share your "It must be love" moment. I know we all have a list. It is pretty hard not to be touched by love!!
While you are at it, here is the song that started it all -
