Love Expressed to Kole Intellectual Forum (KIFA) could be quantified
The Love that was expressed to the team of Kole Intellectual Forum by the community whose children are the beneficiaries of their project could be quantified when the team visted the at their site.
Although, it is not a very simple task to quantify Love that someone givesyo ther other; to certain extent it can be quantified in one way or another. To elaborate a little bit further, according to the famous Zen Buddhist monk, Thich Nhat Hanh, they observe it that: there are four components that can help us to quantify real true love. Maitri (loving-kindness), karuna (compassion), mudita (empathetic joy), and upeksa (equanimity). In Buddhism, these four elements are collectively known as the Brahma Viharas or “the immeasurables.” that refers to the amount of love, affection and emotional investment that one has for people or things. These two aspects of love can sometimes be related, but they are not the same yet they can be taken as a yard to measure the degree ofr love that one for a friend or friends.
Or it can as well be level of feelings and emotions those are often used as a guide to measure how much we love someone, but love is a 'verb' (which means it's a doing word) and love is first and foremost a commitment and it can be quantified in terms of sacrifice and cost that someone can encounter for the other.
Look at the level of Love the community have offer to Kole Inteellectual Forum. All these have been possible because of support from donors on the platform of GlobalGiving.
