Love is patient and kind, never jealous or envious, never boastful or proud, never haughty or selfish or rude.  Love does not demand its own way.  It is not irritable or touchy.  It does not hold grudges and will hardly even notice when others do wrong.  It is never glad about injustice, but rejoices whenever truth wins out.  If you love someone you will be loyal to him, always expect the best of him  and always stand your ground in defending him...There are three things that remain-faith, hope and love- the greatest of these is LOVE.  

I Corinthians 13:4-7, 13
