艳情
One of the most important human emotions is love. Hoever there ere different kinds of love.
Romantic love is certainly one of the most interesting kinds of love. It can be beautiful, onderful and hearbreaking , sometimes all at the some time.
Romantic love can make our lives full and meaningful, but it can also be an escape from loneliness and suffering.If romantic love has a purpose, neiter psychology nor biology has discovered it.
Hoever , through history, philosophers have offered opinions about it .The Greek philosopher , Plato, said love makes us plete.He relates a ic story in hich humans originally had 4 arms, 4 legs and 2faces. Then , hen they angered the Gods, they ere cut in half.Since then every person has been searching for their soulmate, the other half of his or her self.
Another philosopher believed that love is an illusion. In his vie, people fall in love because they believe the other person can make them happy. But in fact , this is just an illusion designed to make us have children. Once e have children, e are right back to here e ere, still searching for happiness.
For nature this is a success, because e have children to maintain our species. But it leaves us still searching for something more.
In Buddhism , romantic love is seen as an attempt to satisfy our desires.These desires are a defect, something e need to overe.The ay to free ourselves from suffering is to remove desires.Once free of desires e can reach a state of peace and isdom.This state of being is called nirvana.
