Every unique photograph begins with an original point of view The first book in a brand-new photographic series--shot mostly by amateurs--about seeing the world from a brand-new perspective! Amateurs, by definition, work for love alone--so what subject could be more fitting for the first entry in a brand-new series focusing on the art of the amateur photographer than that potent symbol of love: the heart? Through their snapshot-hungry eyes, these photographers glimpse hearts everywhere: in graffiti scrawled on an alleyway wall, in paper cut by a child, and in nature’s worn stones scattered on a forest floor. All that’s necessary is to open our eyes...which is what this collection inspires us to do.

What Is the Focus of Love? You can be happy or you can be right, but you can't be both. Many partners focus on making their lover wrong in a relationship, and nobody wants to be around that person all the time. Remember: You convince a man against his will he's of the same mind still. Inside of having a deep intimacy you get to be happy, which is way more fulfilling than being right. That's where I come in. As a result of what I do, people like YOU create a life you love, have delicious relationships, savory intimacy, admiration for your significant other in partnership instead of competition and in that you fulfill one another rather than strategizing to convert one another. REMEMBER: What you Focus on EXXXPANDS! Let's Focus on the Love we really want!

Fr. Karol Wojtyla (Pope John Paul II’s name before he became the pontiff in 1978) published Love and Responsibility in 1960. It revealed his fully formed philosophy of marriage and sheds light on the dynamics between men and women. Some consider his analysis of the true meaning of human love as life changing and practical, shedding light on real issues between men and women. This updated and expanded edition of Edward Sri’s classic meditation on Pope John Paul II’s Love and Responsibility includes a new introduction, new chapters for single people and engaged couples, and maybe most importantly the stories of people whose lives have been transformed by Pope John Paul II’s foundational teaching on relationships. “Edward Sri is a gifted teacher and an equally talented writer. This book shows why. He breaks open Karol Wojtyla's great text, Love and Responsibility, in a way that's clear, engaging and very practical for the challenges of daily life.” – Charles J. Chaput, OFM, Archbishop of Philadelphia. In Men, Women and the Mystery of Love, Edward Sri breaks down the contents of John Paul’s epic work, making it more accessible to the reader. It isn’t a manual on sexual ethics, more so a no-nonsense discussion on issues we face as couples. He emphasizes the down-to-earth nature of Love and Responsibility, giving readers actionable advice on issues like: How to determine if a relationship is one of authentic love or is doomed to failure; The problem of pornography; The meaning of friendship; How to achieve greater intimacy in marriage; The difference between feeling “I’m in love” and love itself; and so many other valuable questions. While this book is a great personal resource, it also can be used in a variety of situations like small group studies, marriage preparation classes, and other parish settings. It offers valuable advice for just about everyone, from young single adults and engaged couples to newlyweds and couples celebrating their 35th anniversary. Study questions with each chapter make this a valuable resource not only for individual personal reading, but also for small group study.

This introductory text offers a clear, concise look at the philosophy of love. The author's presentation assumes no previous knowledge of philosophy, providing the humanities student with an insightful introduction to some of the most prominent writers and philosophers, both ancient and modern. From the dialogues of Plato to the writings of feminist philosopher Luce Irigaray, Wagoner presents six major ideas of love: erotic love, Christian love, romantic love, moral love, love as power, and mutual love. This study asserts that even though we have only one word for love, six fundamentally different meanings can be distinguished: erotic love, Christian love, romantic love, moral love, love as power, and mutual love. Wagoner identifies each of these ideas of love in terms of the special meaning it brings to experience. No one meaning is comprehensive. Each is shown to have a logic and legitimacy of its own. Why each view seems real and compelling is the focus of separate discussions, as well as the price that may be exacted by each idea. The extent to which these ideas throw light on actual experience is striking, but the book is not an empirical or psychological inquiry. How one self finds itself in another is first defined and then explored further to see how this shapes the rational and sexual aspects of life.

Millions of books have tackled the topic of love. Everyone has a love story to tell. Though most of our favorite writers have dedicated much time and effort to describe human love, there's still a popular misconception about this topic. We may assume we know what love is, but when challenges come, times get hard and relationships get rough, we quickly realize that we have only a superficial understanding of love. Many people talk about love but they don't show the fruits of love. Since the fall, humans have lost the real meaning of love. The world has a perverted understanding of love which is contrary to God's word. What many people call 'love' is not true love, but pleasant emotions. When God looks down on the earth, He sees no love. No man practices good; all are selfish! The human heart is the most deceitful above all things, and desperately sick beyond cure. It is very wicked, who really knows how bad it is? Love encompasses all the laws of God. The fact that no man can keep all God's laws, infers that no man possesses true love. The Law of Moses required a love which is not of this world. It is humanly impossible to love your neighbor as yourself, and even very much impossible to love God with all your heart, soul and body. Where on earth will you find such a sublime love? There is no such a thing as true love in this world; we receive it only from God. God pours His genuine love into our heart through the Holy Spirit. It is a type of love which surpasses all human understanding. It is the infinite love of God in the tiny human heart. No one can say, "I love Jesus more than my own life" except by the Holy Spirit. God is love, His very nature is love and He is the source of true love. God gives us the power to love Him and to love others. Only the one who knows Jesus Christ will display such pure love. If everyone could focus on love, the world would be a better place for all. Love should be the primary focus in every relationship, since the success of every human relationship depends on it. A great deal of emphasis should be put on how to express love and sexuality in the godly way. This book provides a holistic understanding of love from a biblical perspective and explains all the dimensions of love from the simplest gesture to the deepest affection. The purpose of this book is to provide in-depth teaching on true love, which will enable you to build healthy relationships with God and people. Because healthy relationships are a vital part of a healthy life. You also can't achieve your potential alone. To become successful in life and reach the highest version of yourself--you need to relate to others with genuine love. We must move from superficial feeling and experience the depth of the eternal nature of love.

Is love a uniquely human endeavor? Is romantic love universally felt ... or is it a cultural phenomenon? Can we control it? Love is of concern to nearly everyone--yet it is rarely understood. Drawing material from history, psychology, sociobiology, sociology, philosophy, family studies, and other disciplines, the authors provide an overview to aid readers in understanding the complexity--and ultimate elusiveness--of romantic love. Chapters in this fascinating volume encompass a wide range of material, covering the history of love; theories and research on love; and an explanation of the meaning of love as we practice it in our everyday lives. Romantic Love will benefit students, researchers and professionals by presenting the most recent empirical work on the topic and pointing the way toward more exciting research and applications. "This engagingly written little volume presents a social psychological approach to romantic love, but also brings to bear important facts and concepts from sociobiology, philosophy, history, family studies, and sociology. It is part of a series of short-focused volumes dealing with aspects of close relationships and would make excellent supplementary reading for undergraduate courses in marriage and the family, close relationships, social psychology, or human sexual behavior."--Journal of Marriage & The Family.
