hai all...a comment i received from a scotland based professor is as follows...
"My comment is for M R M. Sorry, would not be able to type your last name correctly. So, let le call you M.R.M.
I read your dissertation on the theme of love here and the first reaction I had was ... Memories. 70s. Raj Kapoor's movies. I wasn't born and raised in US. So for those who never saw indian movies: Drama, lots of tears, very often death, and a lot of music. Love stories.
First and foremost, every culture has its definition of "love". I read some comments, and everybody referred to a love between humans. You all forgot about love that animals feel, love our pets give us. An unconditional, survive-anything love... Humans are not capable of that kind of love. I experienced shock in my first years in America, when people referred to cats or dogs, any other pet as "it". It shocked me. Animals have a heart, a soul, they feel pain and happiness, compassion and anger etc much bigger and deeper than humans. And call them "it" shocked and repulsed me. Love is what makes one happy, it is what makes one feel like walking on air. Love is when your heart aches and longs for that someone you feel connected on intellectual, physical, and emotional levels. Again, Every culture has its definition of love. I cannot talk for all cultures. I can only say about a culture I came from, and about my observations about cultures surrounded me. Selfless love vs, selfish love. Restoring love vs self- districting love. Religious love vs "scientific" love. Platonic love vs physical love. We can talk about it for years. It all comes to What One Feels. It all comes to how one perceives an object of one's effection. An upbringing plays a very important role. Remember, we are born as tabula rasa- blank plank. What genealogy and social surrounding put on our plank defines our approach to every aspect of our emotional behavior toward others. Sorry for the long comment. Nobody can give one definition of love. That is how I look at it"
my observation is as follows....
every emotional relationship changes a person...his attitudes and many other aspects of personality gets changed...as there is a chemical reaction between the personality attributes of both the individuals...specially adaptability...every human being starts with the default emotional relationship of father, mother, grand parents, siblings and it goes on endlessly with more relationships called 'friendship'...other relationships are limited by number...so, with every emotional relationship a human being evolves into another new human being...depending upon his or her flexibility to adapt to each and every emotional relationship...so, we change continuously...we are never the same...as i said the survival challenges can change even the hardest of the hard personality attribute...when high morals, ethics play with love, he becomes an enlightened person ultimately...as all sorts of personalities he or she comes across chisel the person into find round highest flexible personality with high maturity...lots of crying, lots of longingness, lots of happiness, all these make a person to carve himself or herself...only thing is the person should challenge all these and withstand to become an enlightened one...all those who agree with my above philosophy can hit LIKE"
