Give Up On Love : The Means Of Love

Because of this, love shows that it can be dangerous when the hard choices are made, like avenging your

A loss is something most people find difficult to deal with. A term commonly used to refer to loss is been bereavement, which is the position of having lately departed with someone important in one’s life through death. It is normal in the human world to experience such a loss and people ought to know how to manage such experiences when they do happen. Bereavement is never easy; it is a period that individuals experience too much suffering that leaves them feeling vulnerable. Some people are also at risk of developing physical health and mental problems. It can take months or

Loss is a phenomenon that is experienced by all. Death is experienced by family members as a unique and elevated form of loss which is modulated by potent stages of grief. Inevitably, everyone will lose someone with whom they had a personal relationship and emotional connection and thus experience an aftermath that can generally be described as grief. Although bereavement, which is defined as a state of sorrow over the death or departure of a loved one, is a universal experience it varies widely across gender, age, and circumstance (definitions.net, 2015). Indeed the formalities and phases associated with bereavement have been recounted and theorized in literature for years. These philosophies are quite diverse but

In different ways and for different lengths of time. But grieving a love one is one of the hardest thing I think a

Imagine being told one day a loved one has been savagely murdered. I could not imagine being told something like that, but I have had to go through the deaths of two grandmothers at the hands of cancer. I can personally say watching someone you love day in and day out suffer is one of the hardest things a person can go through. My dad’s mom passed away before I was even born, so I am left with knowing my grandmother loved me so much but I never got to meet her. My mom’s mother passed away when I was eight years old and she was always my babysitter and loved me more than anything, but they were both taken away from me due to breast cancer.

The experience of a person losing a loved one is very difficult to accept and then cope with. “He gets all teary telling about the good times they had together, how her brother made the war seem almost fun.” pg. 67-68 (Tim O’Brien). Losing someone close to you is hard to accept because once their gone things don’t feel the same anymore and you just can’t stop thinking about them and the memories you guys shared together. It’s also very hard to cope with because you’re so used to having that person around and when their no longer there you feel so empty and that feeling is so horrible. Having to deal with the fact that someone who was so special to you is no longer there isn’t easy to accept.

love doesn’t exist. This quote also helps to show how the speaker’s grief over his beloved’s

Everything was gone inside of me. I did not think. I could not think. I knew she was going to die and I prayed that she would not. Don’t let her die. Oh, God, please don’t let her die. I’ll do anything for you if you won’t let her die. Please, please, please, dear God, don’t let her die. Dear God, don’t let her die. Please, please, please, dear God, don’t let her die. God please make her not die. I’ll do anything you say if you don’t let her die. You took the baby but don’t let her die. That was all right but don’t let her die. Please, please, dear God, don’t let her die. (Hemingway 330)

”This is saying she also has moved on and doesn’t have to fight the pain. These 2 quotes tell us that love is a thing that you will want to get over to help improve your life.

Love is said to be the greatest human experience in which mankind are privilege to partake in. To love can be a wondrous experience filling life with bliss and other strong emotions. Some people believe to love is to be alive and be able to see the good in the world and others. The purpose of this paper is to examine and find a better understanding of what is love, to explore what people believe love to be, and what lies surround the perception of love and to explore and expose what the meaning true love is or at the very least the authors understanding of the perception of love. In addition to exploring the concept, deception and the truth of love,

In Joseph Campbell’s film titled “Love and the Goddess” it was stated that, "Love, you might say, is the burning point of life, and since all life is sorrowful, so is love. And the stronger the love, the more that pain, but love bears all things. Love itself is a pain, you might say, but is the pain of being truly alive." I believe that this statement holds validity in many situations. When someone values another so highly, the individual is making his or herself vulnerable to pain and heartache. With love comes pain, whether it is intentional or unintentional. Loving someone can be considered a risk because if anything happens to that beloved person, devastation is imminent. For instance, in the myth Demeter and Persephone, Demeter’s source of joy is solely Persephone. It can be implied that Persephone is also Demeter’s weakness because when Hades retrieves Persephone, Demeter becomes devastated and abandons her harvest. Due to the vast love Demeter had for her daughter, the thought of never seeing her again inflicted great pain.

This quote is what I’ve held in my memory for as long as I can remember and have made me truly understand the concept of love. Love can either be the greatest gift one can receive, or it can be heart breaking when it doesn’t correspond to

“You don’t get to choose if you get hurt in this world… but you do have some say in who hurts you. I like my choices.” -John Green. I think this quote means how it’s inevitable that you will get hurt eventually. In the present or future you could try to minimize the pain of hurt that comes your way. You could try to minimize the pain by finding the person who may or may not hurt you and go from there. I think this quote is significant to the story because these lovers who were lonely and hopeless found each other, and fell in love knowing the outcome would hurt more than anything before. This formed them and a new chapter in their life that they will forever remember. Every memory they made, every kiss they had, or every tear they shared will

Life is a collection of moments and many of those moments are surrounded by those we love and care for, but sadly sometimes those who we care about pass away. Love and death go hand and hand in the crazy thing we call life, love fills the journey with happiness along with some sadness, and death grounds us and brings us back to reality. Love hits us all at one point or another, some of us it sweeps us off of our feet, some it nails us in the gut, and some of us it smacks us right across the face. For many, love is a goal, a hope, a dream while for me, love has always been considered a distraction; however, Roger Angell has me second guessing my choice to avoid romantic relationships. Angell uses humor and witty comment to pull on our heartstrings

Now I can say that I had never understood others suffering from a bad loss of a dear person.  I would hate to hear that anybody died. When this happened to me, when my dear mother died, I started to understand all those people who lost someone they loved. There are perhaps no proper words to describe this pain, This intolerable pain which tears you apart, which is like a stone on your heart, and which make tears run down your face with each moment spent with the dear person who passed away. Time is unlikely to pass so fast this hurt, no matter what others claim.
