The most important thing in life is unconditional love. Love of oneself, of people, of nature, of the world, of universe, of life, of God.

Love' by Armonti Mardoyan  

Everything else will follow if everyone accepts love as the highest value. Love is sacrifice, strength, hope, forgiveness, love is the meaning of everything and without it nothing makes sense. But sincere love for a life partner or an intimate close friend is more above all, it must never be underestimated or abused.

Every love relationship has a lifespan, and once it has begun, it also has an end. Some love affairs can last forever, while others can end at the very beginning. The love story might have begun with the greatest passion, but after a while, when emotions have calmed down, even a vibrant and full of surprises relationship can turn into a routine.

'Underground' by José Ignacio Gil Blanco

It develops well for a while, then becomes critical, but love can survive it despite this.
Even though the love is gone, it's still hard to realize that something that was once so great must come to an end. There is no right way to prevent the sad feelings of losing love.

'Lost Love' by Tom Gore

Every time we may ask the question where has all that love gone, but no one can answer that in any reasonable way.

'Lost Love' by Anna Wacker/Martin Wacker

Perhaps the illusions had already been dissolved and the reality turned out to be something other than what was expected from the love.

'Illusions never change' by Pieter De Vries

Maybe it was only passion but not true love.
Maybe it was something else, every failure has its own face.

'Right here waiting' by Fan Yang

However, it's also possible that this is not the very end, love just needed a little break and is still able to save itself.

'Together for ever' by Andrey Lobodin

But if the love is really gone, no tricks will help to save it, because sooner or later the love will go and those few weeks of uncertainty won't make someone happier.

'Tied' by Adrian Sommeling

The only thing to do in any situation is to try to forget the lost love as quickly as possible, because the sadness will evaporate just as quickly as the happiness.

'Train station' by Jie Fischer

But still in some cases the love lost isn't anyone's fault, it's just something that has happened. One should never stop to believe of finding a new love, a true one that will last until the very end.

'Long LOVE' by Sarawut Intarob

'Passion on the streets' by Yvette Depaepe

Even if the end of a love is sad, it should be seen as an opportunity to find a new and better one.

'Fit' by Gavin Prest

However, even if one feels sad and disappointed, it is important not to misuse the holy word of love, rather to take it seriously in every situation, otherwise it can turn against and punish one later once more.

'Lovers' by James Lindsay

'In the bedroom' by Sandro Sardoz

'Long ago, men went to sea, and women waited for them, standing on the edge of the water, scanning the horizon for the tiny ship. Now I wait for Henry. He vanishes unwillingly, without warning. I wait for him. Each moment that I wait feels like a year, an eternity. Each moment is as slow and transparent as glass. Through each moment I can see infinite moments lined up, waiting. Why has he gone where I cannot follow?'
Audrey Niffenegger (born June 13, 1963) is an American writer, artist and academic.

'Woe' by Tammy Swarek

'Grief' by Ton Dirven

And one more from famous French painter and graphic artist of the late 19th century Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec:
'A normal, intelligent man should not fall in love. If he opens the thirteenth forbidden chamber of his heart out of folly, momentary irrationality or pride, he is lost. He will pay for his offence with terrible torment.'

'The dark alley' by Jose C. Lobato

Summary? This is for everyone to decide without the help of someone else. Love can be very beautiful, but this word should be always taken very seriously. Do not forget to love, cherish it like a little flower in the garden, and then you will be unforgettably rewarded for your whole life.
