1. The definition of love
The Bible says: Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous, does not boast, is not arrogant, and does not do shameful things. It does not seek its own, is not easily angered, does not take into account the wrongs of others, does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth. Bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never ends.
What is love? Love is an emotion that comes from people's hearts. It has many explanations in Chinese, ranging from something that gives people a little satisfaction (such as I love eating these foods) to dying for loving something (such as patriotism, dual union). . It can be used to describe an intense emotion, mood, or emotional state of affection. In daily life, it usually refers to interpersonal love. Perhaps because it is the first emotion, love is the most common theme in art. Love is sometimes described as obsession-compulsive disorder.
The best definition of love may be taking the initiative to treat a certain person (can be a person, object or god) with sincerity, so as to make the whole person happy. In short, love is the initiative to make the whole happy. (Thomas Jay Ord).
Love is innate, so it can be considered a trait of human nature. In other words, love is one of the essential qualities that a human being must possess. Although cultural differences among the world's various ethnic groups make it difficult to establish a universal definition of love, it is not impossible to establish. See the Schapia-Wolford hypothesis. Love can include soul or spiritual love, love for laws and organizations, love for yourself, love for food, love for money, love for learning, love for power, love for reputation, love for others Love is endless. Different people place different values ??on the love they receive. Love is essentially an abstract concept that can be experienced but difficult to express.
Philosophers say that love is a medium made of special materials, which makes people look radiant and youthful; writers say that love is an exciting lyric poem that makes people's hearts surge. It is moving and passionate; medical scientists say that love is a psychological medicine that is difficult to find throughout the ages, which can clear the meridians and eliminate worries; educators say that love is an unparalleled educational method that can make people academically successful and energetic. Our education, in the final analysis, is an education with "love", educating students to understand what love is, what to love, and how to love. Education without love is a tree without roots and water without a source. If education lacks love, it will become a desert, a barren land without life; if education lacks love, it will turn into a piece of rotten wood, a dead branch and leaf without vitality; if education lacks love, it will turn into a broken river. It is dry water without vitality. If every teacher loves his students as much as he loves his own child, there will be no students who cannot teach well; if every teacher loves his career as much as he loves his own body, there will be no education that cannot be taught well.
Love has always been praised by people throughout the ages. Love can be said to be the most beautiful love! There are many love stories that are also talked about by people! The tragedy of love is sad. From "Butterfly Lovers" to "Romeo and Juliet" that the Chinese are familiar with, they are all love tragedies in the literary world! But love is still the unchanging theme of the human world, just like justice!
How does love come about? The chemical explanation is: because the "dopamine" in your brain is manipulating it. "The center of the brain - the thalamus is the human love center, which stores Cupid's arrow - a variety of neurotransmitters, also known as love stimulants, including dopamine, adrenaline, etc. When a man and woman fall in love at first sight or after getting to know each other many times When we feel love, neurotransmitters such as dopamine are continuously secreted in the thalamus and surge out unstoppably.
Under the influence of dopamine, we feel love. Feel the bliss of love. Fortunately, our brains can tell the difference between the feeling of satisfaction that people experience when they taste chocolate or when an addict experiences a high. Dopamine is like a master key that can open many locks. It produces different reactions in the body depending on the situation. The smell and taste of chocolate tell the brain that we are eating; the body odor and fragrance of lovers remind the brain that we are in trouble. In love.
The "passion" brought by dopamine can give people the illusion that love can last forever. Unfortunately, our bodies can't handle this kind of stimulation from cocaine-like ingredients forever, which means a person can't stay at peak tachycardia forever. So the brain has no choice but to cancel this idea and let those chemical components metabolize naturally under its own control. Such a process usually lasts from one and a half to three years. Passion turns to calm as dopamine decreases and disappears. ”
