"Hmm...

...let us see...

...I 'like' my favorite foods. I 'like' playing games with my friends. I 'like' figuring out puzzles.

As you know, there is a vast difference between liking something and loving something.

I love my Father, I love my Mother, I love video games, I love music, I love poetry, I love sunsets, I love fighting, I love researching, I love winning...

...but do I love you? That depends...

...you see, above all these other things that I love, I love you so, so, so, so much MORE than any of them.

So, it's either that what I feel for you is something BEYOND love...

...or because of you, you have changed my definition of love.

So, do I like you? No.

Do I love you?

More than you could ever know, more than I could ever express in unlimited eternities, more than can be put into words, more than can be heard through music, more than any creature that has ever existed has loved anything or anyone else, more than Jesus loved humanity, more than I love everything else, more than Stephen Hawking loved science, more than Kanye loves Kanye...

...is this unearthly, ethereal, unnatural, ungodly, powerful, terrifying, omnipresent feeling "love"?

No, it is much more than that, so much MORE.

It is more than either of us can understand. For if I were a man of faith, I would believe that us loving one another is not only proof that God exists...

...but that I am his successor, for only Gods that have shed the mortal coil can be as happy as I am with you..."
