Could time be a better gift than love?

Question

Could time be a better gift than love?

Answer 1

Define "love."

If by "love," you mean that heart-pounding sensation you'll get when you see someone, that gut feeling that you see a crush, that overrated, overused version of "love," then yes, there are many, many better gifs.

If by "love," you mean the feeling that replaces that lust; the trust, compromising, faith, adoration and a desire to spend the rest of your life with someone - or be best friends, either one - then no, there is no better gift.

Answer 2

i need time to love.

and love needs time to heal.

Answer 3

Wow, this question really makes me think.  But, I think love is better.  Why?  Well, because we love, we want more time.  We don't need time to love.  Don't you think?  That's why love is forever and time just ends.  But you could argue this forever.  (No pun intended.)

Answer 4

I would have to say yes. Because with time you find the right love. We have to endure the tests of time through the trials and tribulations that we experience with the people in our lives (both good and bad), so that when time brings us the perfect partner we appreciate them more. For the simple fact that we've learned in our past (time) what effects an unbalanced and unstable love for someone who doesn't love us the same in return can have on us.  

Answer 5

If that is the case, then money would be even better since most people are willing to swap time for money...  Or that we are running around in circle balancing them out?

Answer 6

There is no greater gift than love, I would not want all the time in the world if it the time is spent without love.  

Answer 7

Time is relative to the circumstances surrounding it.  We don't want time to continue or last when our circumstances are dire, but when we are experiencing something pleasurable we want time to slow.  Our brain perceives time differently in these situations as well.  Would you rather be immortal on a deserted island with no contact from others or have a few people in your life?  I guess this all depends on what your idea of living and enjoyment are.
