On love and loving

X: Stephen, the feeling isn't there anymore. What do you suggest?
Stehen Covey:Then love her
X: I told you the feeling isn't there anymore.
Stephen Covey: Love her.
X: You dont understand. THE FEELING OF LOVE JUST ISNT THERE.
Stehen Covey: Then love her. If the feeling isnt there, thats a good reason to love her.

Love is a value that is actualised by loving actions.
