Introduction

Love is a Ieeling that can`t ever be explained. Love protects,
preserves and hopes Ior the positive aspect oI liIe. Always stand
steadIast love, not Iall by it. It is like a dream oI Iour matter oI
aIIection coming true. It should be experienced and not just Ielt. A
diIIerent dimension can be attained between any relationships with
love. Love can be created, and we need to Iocus on the goodness oI
other person. II this can be done easily, then we can also love easily.
And remember we all have some positive aspect in us, no matter
how bad our deeds. As what God said 'Love all, and I will love
you. Love is longsuIIering and merciIul, doesn`t exalt itselI. Love
is t he begging oI all this things, with love we can know things look
so beautiIul and wonderIul. God created by His image and lightness
and by His Love, He does all things to make us be happy.

I. Human Love and Christian Love

Human love is the same as spiritual love. Love stemming Irom attachment is
like the sun`s rays that come through us ad love our Irailties` and we have our
angers and doubts and all the things that make us miserable and quarrelsome, it`s
as iI rays oI God`s love are coming down and coming through as stained glass
window, and its come through the color that we can make it. But it still comes
through. Because oI human Irailties, the purity and charity oI love gets colored by
the emotions oI the moment.

Christian love it is the most elevated love, powerIul and radiant oI a human
Ieelings. It is maniIested as an experience oI special spiritual and moral nearness,
oI a most strong inner gravitation oI one person to another. The heart oI a loving
person is open to the one who is loved, and is ready to receive him to itselI and
ready to give itselI to the other. Christian love is special Ieelings which draw one
near to God who is love itselI, in the words oI his beloved Apostles.


II. Christian Love and other Kinds of Love
A.) Romantic Love
It is deep, intense, and unending love. It shared on a very intimate and
interpersonal and sexual relationship. The term platonic love, Familial love
and Religious love are also matter oI great aIIection. It is more desire,
preIerence, and Ieelings. The meaning oI love will change with each
diIIerent relationship and depends more on its concept oI depth versatility,
and complicity. But at times the very existence oI love is questioned. Some
say it is Ialls and meaningless and it says that it never, exist, because there
has been many instances oI hatred and brutality in relationships. But love is
not responsible Ior that. It is us, the people, who have Iorgotten the meaning
oI love and have undertaken such gruesome.

B.) Patriotic Love
It is an essential love, we seek to make secure, we look Iorward to a
world Iounded upon two essential human Ireedoms, the Iirst Ireedom oI
speech and expression is everywhere in the world. The second Ireedom oI
every person is to worship God in his own way everywhere in the world.
C.) Conjugal Love
Conjugal love is the oneness oI the love oI man and the love oI
woman. A mans like woman broken when one sacriIices.

D.) Four Kinds of love

1.) Storage Love - It is a natural love and a love Ior human.

2.) Eros Love - is a passionate love, it causes physical arousal. Eros love
makes you get that pit in your stomach. It is emotional arousal based on
body or sexual chemistry concerned with happiness.

3.) Phileo Love - It is an aIIectionate love. What we called out oI by the
qualities oI another person.

4.) Agape Love - It is an unconditional love. It desires the others highest
good. It is not based on conditions no matter what love and happiness
can a person do much better.
IV. Christian Love and Marriage Love

Christian love is a special Ieeling which draws one near to God Who
is Love itselI, in the words oI his beloved Apostles.

Marriage love have nothing in common; they are as Iar as the poles;
are, in Iact, antagonistic to each other. No doubt some marriages have been
the result oI love. Not, however, because love could assert itselI only in
marriage; much rather is it because Iew people can completely outgrow a
convention. There are today large numbers oI men and women to whom
marriage is naught but a Iarce, but who submit to it Ior the sake oI public
opinion. At any rate while it is true that some marriages are based on love,
and while it is equally true that in some cases oI love continues in married
liIe, it maintain that it does so regardless oI marriage, and not because oI it.



V. Conclusion
In the worlds oI existence, we have spectrum oI love, with its vast range oI
expressions in varying degrees oI purity. The quality oI these expressions extends
Irom luminous selIless love to darkly colored selIless love. Love is oIten identiIied
as an emotion can carry love, just as noble thoughts, and act oI kindness can. By
this topic, I have some more ideas to make a greatness one. And I`ve Iound the
truth and real meaning oI love, and by this, I can discovered how important it is too
tackled and to study. When I wrote this, each word I look at a meaning so that in
every word that I read, I can understand what`s that it`s all about. There are many
ideas and inIormation that I know about this. And by this, I learned to be respectIul
and to love other. I know that how it is important to our each individual`s liIe. I can
build a knowledge, and I can create a better and existence one`s. BeIore
researching about this, I know that it is lacking but suddenly I never knew that it`s
so really important to my liIe because I`ve discovered into myselI that I`ve been
developing with moral values and love to each other with manner and by loving
humanity and God. And by searching this I know what`s the Iactor or the diIIerent
elements which love gave me on it. I can relate to others and I have the knowledge
to be a part on it. I can manuIacture so many products that human love produced
by me. I am hoping that by this term paper, can make my Iuture very IruitIul,
wonderIul, successIul, and have betterness tomorrow.
VI. Recommendation

Love does not give all at once. It shared so many specialties oI
Ieelings. In this topic many things that I`ve want to discover more about on
it. Never surrender oI what you Ieel Iollow your heart not your mind.
Because God said; Love above all.
