Although Wikipedia has a wonderful technical definition of 'love', the Greatest Love Ever is far too complex for just one definition.
One of the greatest loves ever should be our life and how we live it. This site, as with life and love is a continual work in progress. Let's begin with a few examples and definitions.
Love represents a range of human emotions and experiences related to the senses of affection and sexual attraction.Oxford Illustrated American Dictionary (1998) + Merriam-Webster Collegiate Dictionary (2000). The word love can refer to a variety of different feelings, states, and attitudes, ranging from generic pleasure to intense interpersonal attraction. This diversity of meanings, combined with the complexity of the feelings involved, makes love unusually difficult to consistently define, even compared to other emotional states.
As an abstract concept love usually refers to a strong, ineffable feeling towards another person. Even this limited conception of love, however, encompasses a wealth of different feelings, from the passionate desire and intimacy of romantic love to the nonsexual. Love in its various forms acts as a major facilitator of interpersonal relationships and, owing to its central psychological importance, is one of the most common themes in the creative arts.
Carnegie Mellon Professor Randy Pausch, who is dying from pancreatic cancer, gave his last lecture at the university Sept. 18, 2007, before a packed McConomy Auditorium. In his moving talk, "Really Achieving Your Childhood Dreams," Pausch talked about his lessons learned and gave advice to students on how to achieve their own career and personal goals.

"Journeys" are special University Lectures in which Carnegie Mellon faculty members share their reflections on their journeys -- the everyday actions, decisions, challenges and joys that make a life.

Each of us have our own heart felt interpretation of what the 'greatest love ever' really is. For many, the Greatest Love Ever is what a Mother and Father feel for their child. Some believe the Greatest Love Ever is a child's love for their grand parents, parents, and siblings. More often than not, the greatest love ever involves one's pet. For most people, a pet is one of the family. I had the greatest love ever for my old blind dog.
The video below is of a gentleman who was born with autism, but has an amazing ability to record what he sees on a large scale. I am providing two links to this video to provide a better sound and video quality choice for those who are interested in The Art Of The Human Camera: StumbleUpon: The Human Camera
Stephen Wiltshire has been called the "Human Camera." In this short excerpt from the film Beautiful Minds: A Voyage into the Brain, Wiltshire takes a helicopter journey over Rome and then draws a panoramic view of what he saw, entirely from memory.
