Love is what the soul always craves. When you love someone you always think of that person and pray for them and hope that they are okay. This is one-way love, that is to love someone. Two-way love or true love is a rare thing in this world. When two people truly love each other it moves further than just hoping the other person is okay. Then a relationship is built. Each person cares for the feelings of the other and the more they care the more the love grows. A powerful bond is created between the two people. A great trust between them forms and they are vulnerable to each other as to no one else.
True love goes on and on. Although time can take lovers to different places, when they meet again (which the Lord of Love, Sri Krishna inevitably arranges) that love will again blossom in the hearts of the two people like kindred spirits who missed each other very much.
The topic of love is actually inexhaustible and if I were a more realised devotee I would be able to say more. But in any case more love between people (but not lust) is the only desirable endeavour in this world.
