Essay On Love And Respect

Brené Brown is the author of “The Gifts of Imperfection”. Brené wrote the book to show what she learned from different people thought and to make people aware of choices lead to wholeheartedness. In the introduction, Brown states that wholehearted living is a process, not a one time choice. The key to the key imperfection is cultivated, courage, compassion and connection. Nobody in this world is perfect. This book teaches you that what we are all humans that are imperfect and vulnerable. “Let go of who you think you’re supposed to be and embrace who you are.”(cover of the book)

“finding out who one is, what he is, what he likes, what he doesn’t like, what is good for him and what bad, where he is going and what his mission is – opening oneself up to himself […] It means identifying defenses, and after defenses have been identified, it means finding the courage to give them up.”

I believe this is the most important part of having a healthy relationship. The three fundamental types of relationships for me include my relationship with myself, all other living beings, and the natural world around me. Being caring towards ourselves is the foundation of being able to be compassionate towards everything external. It’s through ourselves that we interact with the rest of the world so how could be expect those relationships to be sound if we can’t show that kindness to ourselves first? In one of my yoga classes last week my teacher Carter spoke to us about “radical self-care”. It’s all too easy to get swept up in meeting the needs of others while ignoring what we need to do to take care of ourselves. We are just as worthy of our own loving kindness as anyone else. It’s important to build a compassionate relationship with ourselves because it’s that energy that radiates outwards into everything we think, say, and do. It’s this capacity to be loving towards ourselves that we take with us into all of our interactions with others. I remember our first assignment in this class was to articulate our most fundamental belief. Mine was that “all living beings are deserving of compassion” which I still hold to be true. Every single person in the world wants love and compassion. Though it’s not always easy to treat everyone this way, it’s entirely necessary. It’s the ability to show this kindness towards everyone we encounter,

In retrospect of Philippe Bourgois’s, In Search of Respect, many social issues are brought to attention much past the prevalent matter of the crack epidemic. The author speaks of life in East Harlem in the mid-1980’s, more commonly known as “el barrio”, which means neighborhood attached with a very negative connotation. This part of northeastern of Manhattan, is predominantly filled with Hispanic with origins from Mexico and Puerto Rico to the Dominican Republic. Matters at hand in this poverty stricken area included sexually transmitted diseases- aids, teenage pregnancy and of course drug addictions (specifically with crack). New York City is composed of five boroughs, Manhattan being one of them.

Most people go through life and always hear about the word respect, but they don’t know what it means. Respect is the esteem for or a sense of the worth or excellence of a person. There are things in life you need to hold in respect. Respect for yourself, respect for others, and respect for property.

In Search of Respect by Philippe Bourgois, is an ethnographic study which explores the social marginalisation and alienation of people living in El Barrio (East Harlem). Though drug and substance abuse seems to largely be the focus of the study, it is merely demonstrating the inhabitants first hand experiences of poverty, with illegal economy being the focal point to their lifestyle. Bourgois established lasting friendships between himself and the crack dealers based on mutual trust, which was essential in the honest telling of the book. Through recording their conversations and documenting them in transcript form, the reader is thrown completely into the dialogue. This makes it not only an academic insight into the underground economy of El Barrio, but also a gritty narrative of the seemingly most impoverished side to society.

The lover becomes so entangled in doing stuff for the beloved, that the beloved comes first, above all and everything, by his choice, but at the fault of the beloved. When this happens, the lover becomes immoderate and has no balance within his life. While the non-lover will always put business first, so that the beloved is second to all things and therefore cannot be blamed for a malfunction in the lover's prior obligations.

Love has many different meanings to different people. For a child, love is what he or she feels for his mommy and daddy.

I wanna work on feeling alright about it.” She nods as thought to indicate that she now has clear direction as to a way to reach inner peace and in Person Centred Therapy, self actualization.

Love is difficult to define, difficult to measure, and difficult to understand. Love is what great writers write about, great singers sing about, and great philosophers ponder. Love is a powerful emotion, for which there is no wrong definition, for it suits each and every person differently. Whether love is between family, friends, or lovers, it is an overwhelming emotion that can be experienced in many different ways.
