Did you know that presidents are only allowed to serve 10 years? It's because after Teddy Roosevelt died, they made a law that no one would be president longer than he had.... That's how much every one loved him. Love is amazing! It even makes governments reform~

In Janeli there are different levels of love. I'm using this post to help me figure them out.

* general love--compassion for strangers, nature protection, etc

* genial love--acquaintances, objects of personal importance, etc

* familial love--pets, friends, family, objects of personal significance: i.e. birthday presents, named stuffed animals, baby blankets, etc

*platonic love

a striving toward love of spiritual or ideal beauty.
purely spiritual; free from sensual desire

* romantic love--two levels

familiar (not to be confused with familial)

intrinsic (belonging to a thing by its very nature)

* agape (a-gah-pay) love--God's love, all-encompassing, all-blanketing

Then there's the dark side of love:

obsessiveness, stalking, insanity... I'll work on those levels later^^ for now just know they exist.
