I firmly believe that love can not die. We are apparently born as the product of love between a man and a woman, but where is our spirit come from? The Spirit is not the result of the human, because it is of divine origin. So he came from somewhere outside of us - and certainly return there after death. We have come to earth to accomplish a purpose and once that our work is done, we 'die'. But it is our physical remains that are in our grave, not the spiritual essence that is immortal.
This comes long after the act of love (or IVF or any other means by which people conceive these days) and leaves all the time you took our last breath. So where are you? I could theorize forever since there can be no definitive answer, but my personal belief is that it comes from and then returns to the Source. And, of course, can be defined as 'source' however we choose, according to our religion - if we have one. If we do not have religion, then 'dead' is 'dead' and nothing else makes sense.
I can make no sense of death can be an end or that we gave and received love in our lives when our body dies dying. Love is too precious to be done. It speaks of God's being and we just need to look at his work in our world and the universe to understand that the act of the whole creation has been fueled by love. And we are a part of that, so we are also a part of him.
If God is love, and he is immortal, and we are part of him, then we are immortal too, is like the love we shared with others during our earthly sojourn.
