hai all...here we continue...
comments from abroad specialists...
"love, with me, is a process for reflection ourself. It makes we know what we need. hopeful. trustful to some one, who can make we laugh, happy, follow inner values, and in the end, make we know how we live."
" Study after study has shown that people who have pets are better of both psychologically and physically. Not because the pets do anything but because when the juices of love flows, it just plain keeps us healthy. For someone who lives alone, it is especially an advantage to have a pet to daily appreciate and love in order to maintain health. So there"
"I think Love is a state of mind at any any given time.It can be joy, sad, Love its self, but it is a "feeling" that comes when your whole body agrees with your head"
"A loving lioness will readily kill any predator who would harm her cub, but I can't see her being so ready to kill anyone who attacks the lion which has just mated with her. I think evolutionary psychology can also tell us something about love"
"Hmmm....interesting thoughts on "Love"...such a complex and illusive concept.
For me...I categorize Love and Fear as "emotions" and then "feelings" as other expressions that flow from these two core place of "being" as a human.
So these "places" within us are complex...because they involve physicality, spirituality, and dimensions we may not be fully aware of that go beyond even sight, smell, hearing, touch, etc....and yet include these as well.
And I don't think Love stands alone. So it involves "the other" and "The Other"...as Martin Buber would describe....i.e. when two come together as "I" and "Thou" there becomes something more in the "in-between" space of "both".
So "love" and "Love" for me...even meld together. And I believe "literally" and "subjectively" that God IS Love...so G-d flows in and through and around all of us - and inspires Love within and between us.
The best metaphor I can come up with - is as a Mother and the emotion of Love that just IS with her baby, child, teenager, adult-child - no matter what their life ends up being. Love just is. Somewhere deep within it IS.
It is not made...it is. And similar is the mystery that occurs when two people come together in a committed relationship like marriage. So many complicated factors in what draws two people together.
Often as Crabb says....in the beginning with undifferentiated or non individuated states of being we may be like two ticks and no dog....but hopefully under the important meaningful arrangement of "covenant" (different than commitment) comes the umbrella covering to work through, to grow each other up, and to "become" so much more (through various crucibles - I think of Shnark-Passionate Marriage) as we learn to be more for and with each other in that particular relationship with "the other".
And this applies to other relationships out there as well - as we shed our narcissism....slowly and learn how to be our best - which is our most human good - within the imago dei we were created in to reflect.
So we are always searching and becoming more - and love and Love is the end all......and we get to grow/go there.....through various pathways including the fun of "feelings" if we so choose to engage fully.
And if we don't - we will be drawn.....eventually. One way or another. Given our freedom of choice.
The opposite of Love is Fear. And Love casts out all fear....and living life most fully is without fear and that is in the fullness of love and Love"
