Kids have an awesome way of quantifying love. Often times when tucking them in for the night they try to ‘out-love’ me. “I love you” quickly gets an “I love you more.” To which you can only top with “I love you forever” (by the way, “forever plus infinity” invites a number of redundant variations that extend the bedtime sign-off by another five minutes).
Love isn’t tangible and, as far as I know, can’t be measured or observed scientifically so the above exchange is ridiculous if you aim to over-analyze it. Fortunately that doesn’t make it any less real. Even as logical as I am, I have absolutely no problem with the fact that love can’t be empirically proven to exist. Like my kids, I have faith and believe that it does.

I truly admire this one. Well put!
