I am S.T.R.O.N.G. at UAP, Thoughts on Love

Jewelz shares...

There was an I am STRONG, 2-day seminar at UA&P where over a hundred students participated from different schools and different provinces. On their second day, one of the topics they discussed was about love. I found some quotes on love that I want to share. Take time to ponder each on each one.




Quote #1:


"Yes, it may be true you're not doing

things my way, yet I love you,

I honor the good in you,

and I want the best for you, just the same."



I like this quote because it does not try to change the other person and it respects the other person for who he or she is.

Quote #2:


"The love of a person implies not

the possession of that person,

but the affirmation

of that person

in all their uniqueness."



In this quote, material things are not important when it comes to love. What is highlighted is the person's individuality, being different from everyone else, and that's what makes him or her special.

Quote #3:


"Those whose perception of others is

unconditionally loving will receive

unconditional love,

enough for themselves

and to give to others."



This quote is similar, however, this time when we love unconditionally it means that we should not expect anything in return.

Quote #4:


"Everyone, at any given time,

is doing the very best they can with what they have.

When people learn better they do better."



We should seek to do what is good so we can better ourselves. We should do things that contribute to our own development. For example, in school we should study not for the sake of getting good grades but for ourselves. We apply the lessons we learn from our teachers, our classmates and our experiences. When we continuously apply the good things that we pick up, we form good habits that will make us more mature and a better person. As a better person, we can share what we know to others.
So aside from loving another person for who they are, we should also learn how to become a better person so that we can share our knowledge. These relationships do not only happen between men and women, but also with families and friends.

Thank you Krystle for telling me the different kinds of LOVE;Filial,Eros,Platonic & Agape.I think Agape is the highest form of love.

There are 4 kinds of love

Anonymous said...

Love is a feeling of warm personal attachment or deep affection, as for a friend, for a parent or child, and so forth; warm fondness or liking for another; also, the benevolent affection of God for his creatures or the reverent affection due from them to God; also, the kindly affection properly expressed by God’s creatures toward one another; that strong or passionate affection for a person of the opposite sex that constitutes the emotional incentive to conjugal union. One of the synonyms for love is “devotion.”
