Where did the love go???

I am trying to figure out if I have enough love to give anymore. I want to love others as God loves me. I used to have a great love for people, all people. I used to hug others as if the world were ending and I couldn't let go. Where did that go? I want to hug again. I want to love again. I want to get my heart back from those who stole it and crushed it. I know I am a good person, but is that enough to wake up in the morning? Is it enough for me to go out and show what little love I have left in me? Where did it go? It didn't just disappear. Love used to be my favorite thing to talk about, think about, obsess about. Over the past 3 years, its become a distant memory. I feel as though I've lost all of my love. Is there a lost & found room for lost love? Where did the love go?
Do I need a map to find it? I know that God has the directions for me. I need a sign. I need to find a way to get back to my love. I'm not the woman I once was. I'm a unidentified object in the big blue sky. You can spot me. My heart is as big as the moon and as bright as the sun. Can you find me? No. Only I can find me. I am the only one who can trace my love back through the years. I know I can find it. I just don't know where to start. Maybe I should just start with the bible...

1 Corinthians 13:4-7 says:

4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

Do I embody these things? Do I even come close?

How do I get my love back?

God, where did the love go???
