...total of living things exists in mutual dependence on one another. Love is a commonly used word today. They see it on bumper stickers and sweatshirts. They hear it on the radio and in poetry. But what is love, really? What does love have to do with morality, personal relationships, and responsibility? Such questions are by no means easy to answer. Love is, in a sense, a mystery and no one will ever be able to fully understand or explain it. For their purposes here, however, they can make a few remarks about love that can help clarify the place of love in our moral response to God. The most simple and yet one of the most important things to say of love is that it is love that gives them all their personal relationships to one another. Love is that power in them that moves them to go out of themselves, give of themselves, and unite themselves with the one they love. They may experience accidental relationship with others as when they happen to have the same color, come from the same family, or go to the same school. But they became directly, deeply, and personally related to one another when they freely choose to love another and thereby no longer live for their own selfish needs alone the one they love. Out of such love flow the relationships for which they are morally responsible. For the Christians, it is important to note that this personal love for others which gives rise to moral responsibility is not a love that comes primarily from themselves...

...THE POWER OF LOVE Life is beautiful but not always easy since it contains problems and challenges that are placed in order for us to face them with courage. We are usually caught up in these situations through ambition or may not understand the value of what we’re given. Humans were made for a purpose and to experience the most powerful feeling in this world. The best of creatures in absolute terms is our Prophet Muhammad (SAWS), who set a perfect example of showing love and affection toward every other creation in this world. The Kite Runner is a complicated maze from beginning to end, therefore showing multiple examples of various types of love. This ideology has a starting point to it for everyone and in The Kite Runner this began from the interaction between Amir and Baba. This is the condition in which the happiness of another person is essential to your own. 1 1 The first phase of love would be the on the basis of the parent to child relationship and this is the purest example of love where one must be the observable attention for another. Characters in The Kite Runner revolve around this belief of paternal love and they all have expectations of their surroundings. Amir is the sole character who experiences this phase of love at its peak. He has a very mystifying relationship with Baba where he feels the love is not complete. Amir believes that his father rarely shows affection toward him and that Hassan is being replaced for Amir at times. Amir experienced this with...

...better representation of love than that of the book American Sniper written by Navy SEAL Chris Kyle. In his autobiography, Kyle loves two things above all: his family and his country, America. What I found interesting was that Kyle seemed to love America more than his family. Kyle says in his book, “I’ve lived the literal meaning of the ‘land of the free’ and ‘home of the brave.’ It’s not corny for me. I feel it in my heart. I feel it in my chest. Even at a ball game, when someone talks during the anthem or doesn’t take off his hat, it pisses me off. I’m not one to be quiet about it, either” (43). The way that Kyle describes his chauvinism is exhilarating as he tells us the pride that he feels in being an American. The feeling that he gets in his heart and the anger that he feels when someone does not share the same...

...In a strange way, romantic love is the least understood part of the human psyche because we are content in believing that “it just happens”, that it is something so sacred that it clearly resists rational understanding, or that it is an entirely different experience for everyone such that it is impossible to articulate. Indeed, social psychology textbooks talk a great deal about the factors that impact relationship formation (proximity, familiarity, shared attitudes etc), but they typically do not have a lot to say about romantic love as something separate from platonic friendships. But perhaps underneath the mystical, maybe even mythical, glow of love’s façade, there is something that we can articulate and talk about meaningfully. And perhaps understanding romantic love empowers us rather than corrupting love through deliberate exploration. This is a story about romantic love from four different intertwined perspectives: fairy tales, Jungian psychology, collected interviews, and biology. This is a story about what four different perspectives can tell us about romantic love. It makes the most sense to begin with a clarification of terminology – what do we mean by “romantic love”? Almost 3 decades ago, in 1978, Elaine Hatfield wrote a seminal book on the topic of love - teasing apart passionate and companionate love. She defined passionate love as "a state of intense longing for union with another" and companionate love as "the affection we feel for those with whom our lives...

...Shakespeare Paper #1: Helena & Hermia Hermia and Helena are essentially the same, but conflicting love that gets in the way of their friendship causes the audience to question the personalities of the two women, who were often referred to as one. In A Midsummer Night’s Dream the introduction of Puck’s love potion alters the balance of love between the four romantics, and turns Hermia and Helena against each other, but ultimately shows that Hermia and Helena essentially are the same. Hermia and Helena’s relationship and personalities change in light of the love potion, but throughout most of their lives they have kept a sister-like friendship. When Helena comes upon Demetrius, Hermia, and Lysander in the woods, and in assuming Hermia has plotted against her, she refers to their friendship that has grown over many years. She refers to “the sisters’ vows, the hours we have spent,” and “all the school-days’ friendship, childhood innocence”(3.2.?). Here it is evident that they are and have been such good friends that they vowed into a sisterhood together. Helena goes on to say that they did everything together and are so much alike that they are practically one person. She says, “As if our hands, our sides, voices and minds,/Had been incorporate. So we grew together,”(3.2?). Helena implies they nearly share the same soul when she says, “with two seeming bodies, but one heart”(3.2.?). There is much evidence to support that Helena and Hermia have been not only friends, but like...

...Aspect of Human Experience: Love Team B: ENG/125 Aspect of Human Experience: Love Introduction The human experience chosen by this team is the experience of love. There are many forms of love and many different ways literary authors bring readers to experience love through their works of art. To demonstrate this experience of love throughout the different types of literary forms, the team chose to compare Chekhov’s Misery, Marlowe’s The Passionate Shepherd to His Love, Langston’s Salvation, and Shakespeare’s Hamlet. Through this comparison, the team will demonstrate how authors bring readers to understand and experience love through their use of literary devices and style of writing. Misery Chekhov’s use of literary devices Anton Chekhov’s short story, Misery, had literary devices to show the love Iona, the protagonist, had for his deceased son. Chekhov displays imagery of the unconditional love a parent has for their children. Throughout the story, Iona was searching for someone he can confide to about his loss. Iona, a sledge-driver in Russia, encountered five people during his route but was unsuccessful in venting his sorrows. He loved his son so much he was willing to talk to strangers about it. Foreshadowing was a device used in Misery as well. The story began and ended with Iona and his mare. In the beginning of the story, Iona and his mare sat in the snow while waiting for customers. Iona searched for strangers to talk to but in the end, it was his mare...

...Name: Delano Hinds ID#: A00327318 Love in Religion from East to West Love is expressed in many languages and is in the many different religions that exist upon the planet. From Hinduism to Christianity, it seems that each religion has the same priority, which is to teach and show how God loves us, his children, and how we in turn must show that same intense love to others that we coincide with on a daily basis. It is seen as the way to achieve world peace, unity and progress; “Love thy neighbor as you love yourself.” With the help of Thomas Jay Oord, I will go into depth of how love and its teachings through religion have affected people and discuss the differences between Christianity and Islam, or love in the east and west. In the eastern world, there is much discipline and faith that the people of Islam, Muslims, acknowledge through the Qur’an. “As such, the Qur’an for Muslims is the primary means of encountering God” (Abdin, “Love in Islam”, p.188). It is this deep desire of wanting to be on the path with Allah, that Muslims believe that the path to true love is through Allah and that true human love is part of Allah. “Muslims believe that true human love is part of Allah’s love and that it is the duty of Muslims to love one another truly” (Abdin, “Love in Islam”, p.188). The sense of placing one’s true “overseer” ahead of those whom you are supposed to love is highly regarded in the Islam world. There are different schools of thought in the Muslim world, they are...

..."Love is patient and kind, it is never jealous, love is never boastful or conceited, it is never rude or selfish, it does not take offence, nor is it resentful. Love takes no pleasure in others’ sins but delights in the truth; it is always ready to excuse, to trust, to hope and to endure whatever comes. Love does not come to an end. There are three things that last: faith, hope and love and the greatest of these is love." When you love, you love with your body, with your heart, with your mind, but not with eyes! As Shakespeare said , “Love is blind!”. Love is deaf! Love makes the world goes round! Firstly, when somebody is in love you can feel it. People who fall in love are just like the sun. You can see the sunrise and the sunset in their eyes, in their heart, everywhere! They are blind! They can't see people around them, but just the one they love. They are deaf! They can't hear people gossiping or saying bad things, but just lovely whispers. Love takes you to the heaven and makes you kinder, more beautiful. Secondly, love doesn't need colours or sounds! Love is beauty, love is music! It's imposibile to find a defect in something that is perfect .Love is perfect! The one you love is perfect for you! You don't need eyes or ears to see and to hear this. Just look carefuly in you heart, listen to it and when your mind will tell you ''He is the one” , that means he is the one! To love means to live! When your heart is empty, you can consider yourself...

...original story of Andersen’s “The Little Mermaid”, the love between the little mermaid and the prince can reflect the author’s love to someone who was going to get married at that time. In the story , little mermaid asked for the Sea Witch for exchanging her beautiful voice for her two legs to dance with the prince . From this scene, the author wants to highlight the love’s sacrifice and how love is so important to change one’s values and beliefs . The author utilizes little mermaid’s impossible yet touching love with the prince to represent human’s love ---love can be an ultimate power to make oneself to sacrifice. Yet , from the little mermaid ‘s love with the prince and how she still danced with the prince despite the suffering excruciating pain, we can interpret some messages from daily lives .Take shark fin soup as an example , while we enjoy drinking the shark fin soup during traditional Chinese weddings , we have sidestepped the painful feelings when the sharks’fins were torn off before being dumped back to the sea .Not only sharks , but elephants and tigers do love humans even we know or don’t know .Indeed , they are like the little mermaid , sacrificing their body parts to fulfill the happiness of human and this is one of my insights after reading this story. Although the love between the animals and humans isn’t as same as the love between the little mermaid and the prince, love can be classified into friendship love too .While the animals are struggling to provide...

...A. Hall A. Casey ENG 1010 January 17, 2015 The similarities and differences of Hermia, Lysander, Demetrius, and Helena relationships Relationships are hard. Many people go about life with hopes of one day finding true love. Then there are others who are compelled to love a person although the person they love does not share the same love interest. In some cultures relationships are arrange amongst parents while other cultures leave love to the free will of the individuals in love. In Shakespeare’s play A Midsummer Night’s Dream the readers are introduce to two couples who share some of these similarities and quite a few differences. While many people misinterpret lust as love, love is an act of free will because love cannot be forced, in order for love to prosper there has to be a mutual affection between two people, and thus concluding that love is more powerful force than lust. The play A Midsummer Night’s Dream takes place in Athens under an Athenian society. In Athenian culture, the law of a father holds that a father has control to choose his daughter’s perspective suitor. This portrays in the start of the play with Egeus and his daughter Hermia. Egeus files a complaint against his daughter Hermia with the king of Athens, Theseus. Full of vexation come I, with complaint/ Against my child, my daughter Hermia. I beg the ancient privilege of Athens: / As she is mine, I may dispose of her, / Which shall be either to this gentleman/ Or to her...

...the humorous and witty plot, but also demonstrates many of life’s philosophies to the audience. These philosophies shown in the film have an enormous resonance to the Buddhist concept that makes people glad to use this film to spread Buddhist philosophies. The key reason for Groundhog Day being a valuable instrument in the teaching of Buddhism is its relevance to the Buddhist philosophies of reincarnation, love, and self-salvation. One key reason Groundhog Day is a valuable instrument in teaching Buddhism is its relevance to the Buddhist philosophy of reincarnation. One aspect of reincarnation in Buddhism is the endless cycle of life which is normally regarded as being reborn into a new existence after death, called Samsara in Buddhism. And Samsara is usually accompanied by Dhukka, which is the feeling of unsatisfactory and painfulness(Harvey). These abstract Buddhist concepts has been wondrously performed in the movie.

...Importance of Friendship In Lisa See’s novel Snow Flower and the Secret Fan, protagonist Lily, a young girl longing for love, is paired with a laotong, or old same, and begins an emotional relationship meant to last a lifetime. Snow Flower, Lily’s old same, influences the young girl’s personality and character through her actions. The inspiration from her laotong provides Lily with the confidence to take risks and live for herself, not others. As her old same, Snow Flower passionately loves Lily like no one had before, and in doing so teaches the young neglected girl to show affection to those she cherishes. Although a secondary character, Lily’s laotong, Snow Flower, provided inspiration and love that critically shaped Lily’s personality. Old sames forever, Snow Flower’s childhood actions shape Lily’s life by inspiring a usually timid and proper Lily to take risks later in life. In the beginning of their laotong relationship, Snow Flower’s ability to fly against the traditional ways presented to her encouraged Lily to do the same. Exhilarated by Snow Flower’s bravery, Lily often wanted, “to cling to her wings and soar, no matter how intimidated I was” (61). Snow Flower’s courageous ability to take risks and chances caused a hesitant Lily to covet her laotong’s perilous actions. Providing Lily with an example at a young age helped model Lily into a carefree woman, who tended to hesitate less when taking chances. After receiving an embroidered baby jacket as a gift...

...considered to be the greatest playwright of all time due to his many great plays and his vast contribution to the English language. Some of his works include Hamlet, Othello, and the infamous Romeo and Juliet. Wrote in 1597, the tragic comedy tells the story of young Romeo and Juliet, who find themselves “in love at first sight”. Unfortunately for them, their love story goes awry when they learn their parents are mortal conflict between their parents, which ultimately caused their demise. Woven throughout the plot, many examples become present that show that the star-crossed lovers are not in love. It becomes clear Romeo and Juliet are merely infatuated with each other. The ill-fated couple focus only on each other’s physical appearances and are severely impulsive throughout the tragic story. “The play then impresses upon us the intensity of youthful love, at once joyful and desperate, while at the same time it shows us that the lovers themselves are obtuse to the consequences of their infatuation with each other, tragically innocent, despite their forebodings, of the dictum that "violent delights have violent ends"” (Bond 1). In the beginning of the play, Romeo professes his love for a girl named Rosaline. He claims what he is feeling is...

...Love vs. Friendship Love is a four letter word that until now has provided a lot of meanings and descriptions. It can be anything really, from an emotion to an affection and dedication. It can be your love for your parents. Love for God. Love for your friends and the long list goes on. Love symbolizes a lot of things and is described in a lot of ways. Love represents a lot of things. It is a universal thing. But probably the most dominant understanding of love to the common is the beating of one’s heart for another person. Romantic Love. Friendship is a certain bond between two people. Like acquaintances. It is the word that describes your relationship with your friend. The trials and experiences you had and the moments you chose to treasure forever. They can be from your closest classmates, workmates, and friends of friends. There are a lot of words that go well together. But does Love and Friendship mix well? It can actually. It all depends on the beholder. It depends on how he or she handles it and it also depends on his or her perception of the two simple but meaningful words. Do they see them as just words? Symbols? Signs? Codes? It doesn’t really matter that much. But what matters most? When you have Love, Friendship comes in a second. It becomes a little bit neglected. It dries out in your part when you are too much occupied with love. In friendship, being without love may seem like there’s a missing puzzle piece in your life.
