A brilliant and intriguing monoku Paul. Lust selfishly burns out whereas love is caressed by the stoking heat of mutual attraction of mind, body and spirit as each tends to the passions and deep affections of the other. A stirring write my profound friend. Warmest wishes ~Susan

Your definitions are clearly explained, Susan, and I can't but agree with you. When one finds love the whole concept takes on a new dimension. Thank you for your contribution to my statement. ~ Warm regards // paul

On it's own it is emptiness, together, one's cup runneth over. Your one line insights are a fulfilling read Paul:) Thank you.

Truly said. Alas, very often it is confused with love. Great monoku. GL :) Sunita

You are right, Sunita; that is why many relationships fizzle out. Thank you for your input:) Regards // paul

Hi Paul, I agree with this wise one -liner. If it's just "lust" the relationship won't last long. I wish you the best of luck in the contest:-) Alexis

Ahhh, but when love is in tune with lust the universe becomes involved (in other words there is no limit). I enjoyed Paul!. And usually I would agree except in my own experience. ; )

Lust & love make great companions; it's a matter of balance I would say. Each of us have our own experiences to back up what conclusions we come to. Thank you for your honest input, Connie. Have a lovely weekend:) Regards // paul
