THEME OF LOVE
Introduction
Love is a multifaceted thing. No matter what or how long love lasts, love will always be a treasured part of our future and past. Love helps to shape who you become. Love changes everything the moment that it’s begun. Cupid, the archer, looks out from above, for those who’re searching for someone to love. His arrow only flows to those he knows would gracefully accept a string to their bows.
Love as such is not possessive,dominating and destroying in its composition and make-up,but today that is exactly that it has turned to be for the present era human beings.The love of enduring nature is unselfish and it doesn’t put demands upon individuals who are in the realm of it,but today the concept of love becomes obligatory and prone to specifications of various hues and colours. The theme of love is looked into from multiple perspectives which can be summarised in the following ways.
(1) The Holistic Love
The concept of love does have that holistic tone and tenor when love is meant to hurt none but to serve the interests of one another,when love is practised with that kind of open mindedness,it can become a love of comprehensive nature harbouring no ill will towards anybody.When love reaches that plain,everything associated with it attains that level of perfection and immaculateness.
(2)Love as the Finest Human Emotion
Without love,this world is a futile place to live in,if all our actions and
reactions are fine-tuned using the concept of love,life here on this earth generates that level of goodwill towards one another and this emotion becomes the sum total of life.But the sorry thing about it today is that this pure emotion is put in the parameters of vulgarity and obscenity,as a result of which the positive side it is put in the backburner in the dealings and wielding of human society.
(3)The Worldly Love
Today,love is looked through the prism of materialism,the money factor plays an important role in terms of love that is carried out here in this world.When love is seen in this respect,its essence is gone,it’s flying wings are clipped,its fundamentals are driven out,its very purpose is taken to the wire,its imaginative capacity is curbed and curtailed,its purity is destroyed and its morality is ripped apart.Such volatile form of love is a bane on the human society.
(4)The Spiritual Love
It is the most abiding,powerful,indelible,interminable and everlasting love that exists here in this universe which is not inflicted with
egos,complexes and personality clashes.The God Almighty showers humanity with unconditional love,he expects nothing in return,that is why,it is often reiterated that God is Love.Compared to the love of God,all other loves don’t make the cut because his love transcends beyond human definitions regarding the concept of love.
(5)The Sacrificial Love
The highest love is all about giving up one’s life for the person whom one loves because in such a love,complete self effacement is in operation,when such a love comes into the picture,the concept of love moves away from the trappings of the world into the domain of lack of expectations and desires,the love of this kind is the best side of it.
(6)The Physical Love
Love of physical nature is an essential ingredient in terms of the success of a love relationship,but if the physical love is all about the fulfilment of carnal desires and intentions,then such a love can do irreparable damages to human personalities.The point here is that the physical love is to be matched up with the meeting of the minds of the lovers for the true redemption of love.
Conclusion
Love goes beyond words. It’s impossible to define it by words, it has to be experienced directly. Love can also be expressed with a simple smile or a little act of kindness. Love is a kid that plays joyfully under the protective energy of a mother. It’s two people that look into each other’s eyes because they’re in love. It’s a man who works in a global society to reach all people’s hearts and achieve their happiness. It’s to share words coming from your heart in your family, or with your friends. Love can be felt through the heart’s sensitivity. Love is the light of your heart that lets your life shine. Love is to live with the greatest humble essence. Love is to be sincerely thankful for life. A firm willingness to love makes miracles happen. In the Universe, this love is called God.
