Does the essence of love changes with time??

Most of the words have a fixed and deterministic meaning but the meaning of "love" changes with time and its interpretation varies for persons of different age. Infact for most of the people, as they move through their life they hold different views about it. Let's begin from the early stage.  Ask a small child that what love means to him. He would be of the perception that my father brings chocolate for me,  my mother prepares my favourite dishes,my siblings help me out in my projects and save me from mum's scolding. These acts and favours is love. When he steps into school, he gets a friend circle and then a new meaning of love adds to his life- the support of friends and their helpfulness. As he becomes a teenager and plans of life settlement begin, he feels that love is the ultimate support of a person who is ready to support you  in every phase of life and stands beside you, no matter what the situation is or circumstances are. When the person goes through the phase of old age, a new meaning of love arouses- the concern, care and affection of children towards their parents.  Infact,  it would be more prominent to say that In every phase of life, one particular meaning of love becomes more dominant than others. But is the priority same for Everyone?? No, not at all.  If we go a bit deep, we realise that  there is a need of addition of new meaning of love to our life as we proceed in our life span. To make myself clear, i would say that when a child is small, he do needs the love of his parents and siblings so that he can develop a strong bond with them and consider them as their friends with whom he can feel comfortable to share anything throughout their life. The childhood is the best time to develop that tuning and hence this meaning of love should be realised by every kid. When he grows up, his parents can't help him in every case and hence the meaning of friend's love should be realized.  When a person has to settle in his life, he must get the love of someone who can be with him throughout his life as a perfect companion because that's very essential for his future life to be stable and peaceful. When he is at the verge of last stage, he must get the love of his children and must be fortunate enough to get a glimpse of this meaning of love. But the addition of new meaning should never ever lessen the importance of earlier meanings  which you have learnt before. Don't try to rate or prioritise the meanings.  Each has  its own spark. As you move up in the classes with your age, you don't forget the important concepts and basics learnt in each class because you never know that the teachings of which class help you at which point of time. Similarly,  you never know that which meaning again empowers your life at any instant. Specially, when we lose one specific meaning of love, other meanings get the responsibility to hold you and guide you.....

                    Let the essence of every meaning of love 

                     bless your life with happiness and peace......
