What is love? Baby don't hurt me. Don't hurt me no more. But really, what is love? I am not the person to ask.


First, how do we become attached to others?
There are many factors that lead to attachment and being in "like".

It should go in this order. If you and your partner are very touchy, you may think you know the person better than you actually do. Or, you may begin to trust them more than you should.

Attachment leads to being in "like" which then leads to love.

There are different types of love: Storge, Philia, Eros, and Agape.

Storge: The kind of love parents have for their children. Sacrifice is a huge part of this love.
Philia:  Brotherly love. The friendship love.
Eros: The touchy feely, ewey gooey love. This love is passionate and with a romantic partner.
Agape: General love for mankind. Charity is a huge part of this love.

So, how do you love?

Challenge: Love everyone you meet with an agape kind of love. See how your day changes.
