Love Commands Review
Love has been described in many ways by many people . Even different cultures have a certain twist on how love is expressed . Can love really be experienced in so many different ways and still be called love ? I think the answer is that it can based on the definition for the culture or person experiencing it . If that is the case then love really has no true meaning ; it is just an experience one has with another person based on their definition .
After all , doesn ' t how we love our siblings differ from how we feel about our parents , relatives , or friends ? Is not the love a mother has for her child the most intimate relationship that exists ? How about love of country or based on religious beliefs ? http :// rapidrefluxreliefreview . io / love-commands-program-review / How is it possible to define love differently for so many various experiences ? To me , it isn ' t possible , because there is only one kind - Divine or Unconditional Love . Everything else called love must therefore have another meaning .
It seems to me that the word love is used carelessly and given meanings that really have no bearing on it at all . For example , if a person says " I love you " in one moment , and in another says " I don ' t love you anymore ", how can that be called love ? You cannot fall in and out of love . It is eternal . Let us examine some facets of the word based on one of my favorite songs , The Rose .
It tells the tales of people ' s experiences with love in just a few phrases . The song starts with what I would call the shallow definition , but deepens on the last line of the second verse - " I say love it is a flower and you its only seed ." It then moves with this depth to how life seems and how it could be . " And the soul afraid of dying , that never learns to live ."
I asked my mom one day when I was maybe around ten , why so many songs were written about love . She said that " love makes the world go ' round ." Love Commands Review And so , from that perspective , it does . What most songs speak about is what is called ' romantic love ' which is really not love at all , but an attachment . Real love could not be described as the first line of the song ; " Some say love it is a river that drowns the tender reed ."
But let ' s look at the line that starts the second verse : " Some say love it is a hunger an endless , aching need ." This describes what I call Divine Love ; that within us that calls us to be more , to awaken to the real us . As with the line that follows - " I say love it is a flower and you its only seed " - it is a Divine seed planted in our consciousness before we were born .
For most of the people in most Western societies , romantic love has to be what is usually described as love , otherwise the divorce rates would not be so high . Romantic love , or just being ' in love ' is mistakenly taken as real love . What is taking place is being attached to the person you are supposedly ' in love ' with . How can anyone embracing deep love say , " I don ' t love you anymore "?
Divine Love is the seed spoken of in The Rose . It is that " endless , aching need ." We feel it from the very depths of our being most of our lives , but usually don ' t identify with it . There is some longing , but what is it ? The question , for many , goes unanswered all of their lives ; as the song says , " Its the soul afraid of dying that never learns to live ."
I feel the closest that most humans come to actually experiencing real love is that between a mother and her children . For most , if not all , http :// rapidrefluxreliefreview . io / love-commands-program-review / mothers it is unconditional . A mother ' s child can do no wrong in her eyes and even if she were to see it that way , it is usually quickly ' forgiven .' For many people in a long lasting relationship , what might have begun as romantic love evolves into deep love over the years .
The above two examples come as close to Unconditional Love as it gets in the Western human society . Some Eastern societies , however , and many indigenous cultures have a deep love of God or whatever word is used in the culture for some higher power . This is not a worship of God , but a deep sense of connection - Oneness . Many religions may aspire to that connection , but lack the commitment to bring it into their experience .
