Love is the ultimate form of charity. It is when you put somebody’s welfare infront of your own. Platonic love between friends is expressed by compassion – a form of charity. Filial love is sacrifice – another form of charity, where you give up your own comforts to nurture and care for a parent or a child. And romantic love – that’s the best one. It is all expressions of charity all in one package. The physical attraction is only the spark, then love is expressed by constant care. So, those people that always complain about “he never does fill-in-the-blank for me”… that’s not love. Because love is charity and charity is compassion, sacrifice, and nurture. It doesn’t care if it is requited. It consumes you so that all your actions is designed to be for the comfort of the person you love. Now, when it is requited, it is the best. Because then, you give 100% charity to your loved one and in turn he gives 100% charity to you… both of you are happy.

Well, it’s latin for “by itself”. It’s more proper to say “It’s not a phrase that can be used by itself, per se,” although that would be like saying “It’s not a phrase that can be used by itself, by itself”.

“by it self” or “inherent” or “in itself”, such as when you say illegal per se then the act is inherently illegal, example, drunk driving is illegal per se.
