A review of the book 'four loves' by c.s.lewis

"We need others physically, emotionally, intellectually; we need them if we are to know anything, even ourselves."
We hear often that love is patient and kind, not envious or prideful. We hear that human love is a reflection of divine love. We hear that God is love. But how do we understand its work in our lives, its perils and rewards? Here, the incomparable C. S. Lewis examines human love in four forms: affection, the most basic, general, and emotive; friendship, the most rare, least jealous, and, in being freely chosen, perhaps the most profound; Eros, passionate love that can run counter to happiness and poses real danger; charity, the greatest, most spiritual, and least selfish. Proper love is a risk, but to bar oneself from it--to deny love--is a damning choice. Love is a need and a gift; love brings joy and laughter. We must seek to be awakened and so to find an Appreciative love through which "all things are possible."
"The Four Loves deserves to become a minor classic as a modern mirror of our souls, a mirror of the virtues and failings of human loving." —New York Times Book Review
"Lewis has a keen eye, a large measure of human sympathy, wit, and a command of simple words." —Times Literary Supplement
C. S. (Clive Staples) Lewis (1898-1963), one of the great writers of the twentieth century, also continues to be one of our most influential Christian thinkers. He wrote more than thirty books, both popular and scholarly, including The Chronicles of Narnia series, The Screwtape LettersThe Four LovesMere Christianity, andSurprised by Joy.This book the four loves is most  to buy for  your lover.http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0156329301/ref=as_li_qf_sp_asin_il_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=0156329301&linkCode=as2&tag=loveandfrie0d-20&linkId=4KA2TLNWMYERSZEA

Can marriage survive without love

Law Offices of Todd K. Mohink, PA CALL US NOW: 410-204-4697 Available To Help You SCHEDULE CONSULTATION ≡MENU CAN A MARRIAGE SURVIVE WITHOUT LOVE? logo Back in the 1960s, The Beatles sang “All you need is love.” But do you even need love nowadays for a successful marriage? Ideally, yes. But many couples are staying together for other reasons, such as kids. Their relationship evolves from a romantic one to a parenting one. In the past, those in rocky marriages with kids would have several options: get divorced, stay together in a miserable marriage, go into therapy and work harder on the marriage, or have an affair. Having a romantic bond with your partner for decades can be challenging to say the least. It can be next to impossible when kids are involved. That’s why after the love is gone, many couples file for divorce. Should You Work on Your Marriage? If you’re living in a loveless marriage, what do you do now? Should you try to work things out? It ultimately depends on your goals.

Is He Taking Too Long to Propose? by Alexandra Fox

Do you have a man in your life, and he loves you very much... but he's taking his sweet time making things official? You might have been dating exclusively for several months now. Or you might have been in a serious relationship for several years now. And still, nothing's happening. It's enough to drive ANYONE crazy with impatience!

If this is how you feel right now, here's a piece of love advice: DON'T DO IT. Just don't. You might end up scaring him away. You might make him change his mind about your future... even if you've been together for many years! Let me reveal something weird about guys... They Don't Have A Time Frame That's right. When it comes to committing or proposing to

How to Make Him LOVE You by Alexandra Fox

What's the worst thing that could happen when you're in love with a guy?     Without a doubt, it's when you figure out he loves you too... but only as a FRIEND!     In other words, you've been "friend-zoned." And it's one of the most painful, most frustrating, and most humiliating places to be in the dating game.     But what if he hasn't been totally clear with his feelings yet? How do you know if he REALLY only sees you as a friend... or if he's just hiding his real feelings for you?     Here are some of the signs you're in the friend-zone:     (1) He prefers hanging out with you in a group, and not alone.   (2) There's no hint of romantic tension between you.   (3) He talks to you about the other girls in his life.   (4) He says you'd make some lucky guy REALLY happy.     Ouch... that hurts!     And I know how it feels. I've been there mysel
