Lust

Love has been an essential natural emotion since the beginning of time. Many people have different ways to express this feeling to their significant other, others not so much. But ever since the mid-1700s, love has been expressed using one specific ideology, known as Romanticism, and has taken over most if not all of the modern society. This particular belief is perfectly broken down into its fundamentals in a YouTube video called, “How Romanticism Ruined Love,” by the channel “School of Life”.…

Chekhov’s The Lady with the Dog presents a remarkable, key, chapter in the lives of two individuals as they discover their true existence in a story of unabashed love and its clash with the struggle of letting go of social restrictions. It articulates the discord that ensues in the mind when it decides to act upon love that has come at the wrong time, rebelling against the holdbacks of firmly established cultural bonds and entitlements. Which ultimately leads to a mind-racking cultural conundrum…

In any case we notice that the same characters that once showered each other with love and affection find it awkward to share the same space with the change in circumstances. Here we notice, there is spatial movement of characters. They are in the same space yet in their minds they are far apart. Thus here there is a metamorphosis in the mental space of the characters too. Kinesics is the science of space and body language. It is the study of body movements, facial expressions and gestures.…

“ Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.” - 1 Corinthians 13:4.” The definition of love can be portrayed behind many different symbols as well as many different meanings. Love to me is a sacred word that you not only express and act upon but at the same time, love is one of those things that will either make you or break you … sometimes worse. It is said that the heart is the hardest working muscle in the body due to the fact that it is constantly…

Reading C.S Lewis' writing on affection was incredibly enlightening for me. What surprised me the most was not only that his insight was not only philosophical but also that his insight was very theological and practical.

In fact, it is so humble and diffused that it gives itself no airs as Lewis himself says. Although "Affection" has its own criteria, C…

Is it Catullus' own irony coming to light here in the invocation of concordia, which will be all-too-absent from the marriage, or is it ironic prophecy on the part of the Parcae? It is hard to imagine the latter, given the triple reference we have already seen to their truth, and the refrain’s reminder that they are not just foretelling the events they sing of, but actively spinning them right then and there. Why go to such great lengths to highlight the truth of their song, only to have them…

What exactly defines a romantic hero? Romantic heroes are people who are against most standards of society, and they break away from the norm of how things work. They are dark and act as if they have a larger than life personality. Romantic heroes do not let themselves be bossed around and told what to do. Romantic heroes must face some sort of connection with their inner-self and emotions. “They must strive to understand the value of life experiences through emotional feelings rather than…
