To love should be just "giving", but we are just little humans and tend to waste our great potential. :wallbash: Friends and parents are good "things" but are humans and can make great mistakes in forgiving how joyful is loving you... we don't have to make the same mistake 
Life is our point of view of the truth!  k:

I like that definition. Love is giving instead of receiving...
Well, I guess if we don't look at the religious aspect, we can say that a goal in everyone's life should be to try and improve the world so their heirs can live a better life. Kind of an altruistic view, but that's what life is all about - cooperation. Think of the world as a sort of OpenSource community
If we do however look at the religious aspect, it totally depends. Christians, Buddhists, Jews, they all try to be good people so they can have a better life after this one. For the Buddhists they either come back as a king with playboy tendencies, a beggar or maybe even a cockroach. Well, not that extreme, but you get my point. Christians and Jews however (Indians, too, I believe) look to the beyond as sort of the thing they have lived their life to earn. From a christian PoV, beyond, or heaven, means to enjoy the fruits of your work on earth imho. I don't know squat about Hinduism, but I think in Buddhism, it's pretty much the same - living for the beyond.
