Love is God. It is one of the most powerful of Gods and also the youngest.
In love, there is no act that can be considered “good” or “bad”, it is not the action which is judged, but the situation, the usage; the context in which it is performed.
Why do people fall in love? The end objective being “immortality”, immortality of the soul, of the heart. To be remembered as a lover.
The most superior love is that kind, which evolves in it the power to combine two soles, so that in each life you are together, to produce children who are the combination of the two, soles in one.
In Greek mythology, it is remembered that the prehistoric times man was a mammal with four legs and four arms, two heads. It was a combination of forces of both the earth and the heavens. These mortals were extremely notorious and moved fast like wheels when attacked. A God, agitated by this trait, decided to weaken them and spilt them into two.
It is said, in this context, that love is the search for the whole, the cut half, the twin sole. We are all counterparts of another in this universe.
Love is innocent. It knows no good and no bad. It is youthful and frivolous, lending itself to the young and the hearty. Love lives in everything that is soft, for there it enjoys maximum joy.
Love is indeed more powerful than desire and pleasure. It is far more superior and the lord of all.
In reference for searching for the “whole”, love wants that which it does not posses. But after it possesses what it is in search for, what does it get?. Love is neither rich nor poor, it looses nothing and ironically gains nothing.
Love is the constant pursuit and sustenance of that which it does not possess.
Plato: The Symposium
