Lust

Would not it be amazing if the world could be healed of all its illnesses only with love? Some will say that this can only happen in dreams. Universal love has been discussed in all eras, each had used it to their own understanding, based on the fact what states that everyone must love all human beings equally, with the same effort and dedication, regardless of whether they are close or not.

Love is a powerful emotion people can experience as a human being. Love can be defined as a strong expression someone having toward somebody or something. Love is naturally formed from a relationship between individuals. Those who have strong feelings toward each other are generally expected to stay closely and spend most of their time with one another. Unfortunately, that ideally love-life situation is nearly impossible. In facts, as people grow older, they tend to have more responsibilities.…

What is love? Love is a chemical reaction, a rush of dopamine in the human brain. The ‘dream’ encompasses and displays all the boundaries of love and the challenges that come with such an intimate relationship. When we profess our undying love for one person and make a promise to them until the day we die, what are the deepest thoughts going through our heads? Dreams are a window to the soul and this dream could be a window into the audience's soul as well as shakespeare's personal…

The excerpt from “Love 2.0” by Barbara Fredrickson dispels the common beliefs of emotional love in favor for a biological viewpoint. For most people, love is seen as an intense emotion felt between two or more people who have a deep connection with one another. It is often limited to a small group who instantly click with each other and can trust each other with their lives. While this may seem dramatic, Fredrickson offers her own biological perspective in her essay to explain these phenomena…

When we precisely think of passion we think of love, devotion, and excitement. Passion, according to Merriam-Webster’s Dictionary, can be defined as a strong liking or desire for or devotion to some activity, object, or concept. Initially, when we see two spouses kiss and show affection towards one another, we admire the passion and love that they have for one another. Also, throughout the years my parents, mentors, and teachers all encouraged me to pursue my passion and go after my “dream” job…

I think in the story, “Two Friends”, friendship was presented more realistically because of the events that happened in the story. I thought the story “Damon and Pythias” didn’t show a realistic approach to friendship because of how Damon didn’t hesitate and trusted his life to Pythias. Although it’s nice that they deeply care for each other, the part where they would die for each other was too exaggerated. In “Two Friends”, the way Morissot and Sauvage act around each other shows that they’re…

What is love? Love is the romantic attachment to another person. It is the warm butterflying feeling that lifts the spirit. An individual care more about that person than themselves. It is filled with compassion and appreciation. There multiple layers to love, but the most profound is true love. A true love is the individual that completes the other’s soul. They are one of a kind because they are the missing piece in one’s life. If apart from this person, there is no need to stay alive because…

At the end of Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night, the characters end up with something they weren’t seeking despite the happy marriages because the characters push aside their original feelings. Orsino’s undying love for Olivia vanishes at the end of the play when he marries Viola at the drop of a hat. Olivia’s love for Viola or “Cesario” is disregarded when she marries Sebastian. Malvolio wants Olivia’s affection but he truly desires a higher social ranking. Spontaneity is part of love's irrationality…

People say love is a feeling that one could describe in many ways. A person can love someone for his/her looks, personality, sense of humor, how fit he/she is--but when does his name become a factor of if one loves another or not? Writer Owen Wilson claims “Love is the soul's recognition of its counterpoint in another.” One does not typically prefer to date someone with the name John, rather than Dylan, for example. Usually, a person will say a name does not matter when it comes to loving…
