Task 1
WHAT IS LOVE FOR ME ?
Love as many people see it, can be cupid shooting an arrow through our soul mates heart, parents jumping in front of bullets for their children, or maybe even a dog saving their owner from danger.

Love often involves caring for or identifying with a person or thing, including oneself. A person can be said to love a country, principle, or goal if they value it greatly and are deeply committed to it. People can also love material objects, animals, or activities if they invest themselves in bonding or otherwise identifying with those things. Love has many meanings and definitions as it is used widely through many cultures and religions throughout the world today.

Intimacy is a form in which two people share confidences and various details of their personal lives, and is usually shown in friendships and romantic love affairs.

Passionate love is shown in infatuation as well as romantic love. All forms of love are viewed as varying combinations of these three components in America as of today.
