What is love? Why love? Does love only matters? Let us explore
We are concerned with affection among homo-sapiens; But some animals also exhibit love and affection.
It seems that love is like a oil using which the human social engine works. Let us try to grade the affection among people
From weak to strong
1. Affection between strangers
2. Love between people and their pets.
3. Affection among friends (it is difficult to place)
4. Among blood relations.
5. Brotherly affection.
6. Affection between mother and son
7. Love between man and wife.
The last two always compete each other. Hence many conflicts arises in the family. It is always safe to maintain required strength of love in each category. If you give more or less, you will be in trouble.
The affection between man and wife is having the highest strength an should be the top most. The man and woman are first attracted by their outward appearance and then move into the realm of pure love. Recall the marriage wow "till death do us apart, I will take part in your good and bad happenings". Everywhere, in bank, in insurance, the natural nominee is the spouse.
When we return from work, we want somebody to wait for us with food at home. Homo-sapiens have this carving from the stone age. We always work and live for some body. When we buy a gift and offer it to some one we love, we feel elated.
Love is always accompanied by sacrifice. Love for selfish motive is a fake love and will not flourish.
The saints,and sanyasies should renounce everything in the world. They should be free from worldly attachments and affection. Some have achieved it and some have not.
Love is born when one strike a same chord with the other. There is affinity among book lovers, bloggers, sports persons, teachers.
At the end of the day or at the evening of life, we want some body to care for us. Unless we have deposit in the 'love bank', we cannot get any returns. Some people think they can buy love with money. That will be a fake love and you will not feel safe and secure.
Man is a social animal. Society is glued with affection. Hence love everybody as mother Theresa said, man being 'emotional being' no emotion is supreme than love for him.
Love . Because love is a verb.
