It is something I have thought about for years and I feel that now is the time to start assembling the info to put it all together. It will be about love, but not limited to romantical love. It will be more focused on the aspects of loving outside of ones self like in loving friend, family, community, etc.
Any ideas or personal stories are welcomed. If you feel like sharing in this open forum please do so. However, if you feel that you would rather DM/PM me you may. I am very interested in everyone's story & culture that these stories have created.
Thanks for reading this post. I have a LARGE task ahead of me...

Kewl. Exploring various types of love, how they can compliment or even contradict one another could be an interesting study.

I am a firm believer in the Old Paths
Articles on such subjects as "The New Birth," will be accepted, whether they teach that the new birth takes place before baptism in water and Spirit, or that the new birth consists of baptism of water and Spirit. - THE PENTECOSTAL HERALD Dec. 1945
"It is doubtful if any Trinitarian Pentecostals have ever professed to believe in three gods, and Oneness Pentecostals should not claim that they do." - Daniel Segraves

I agree!
i am moved to love people Hoovie. I think you can tell by my FB posts, unless you have blocked me on there, that I love people, all people. It's a tough gig to have, but loving ain't easy, ya know?
I have a general focus, the book title, & even some info written down. I am looking for someone to assist me with it. I have two individuals in mind that I trust enough to help. I also know these people are rather wise & well learnt. lol
Hoovie, do you have any info you would like to lend? For what it is worth, I am taking a look at love mainly from the angle of how we all want it, we all want to give it too, but most of us are deathly affraid of it. Again, not specifically in a romantic sense.
I picture it this way. If you were to draw approximately 10 circles where there is a smaller on in the center. Then a little larger one that encircles the smaller one, then another to encircle that one until you have one large circle & approximately 9 inner circles. The center circle is "Me" or "I". The next is "Family", then "Friends"; "Community/Church/Social Groups"; "City or Town"; "State"; "Region"; "Nation" & "World". If you were to put a pen on the world "Me" and draw a straight line to touch the last circle. In every area that line crosses/touches there are people in those areas that need & desperately crave to be loved or cared for.

The best book I ever read on love is "The Five Love Languages".
If I would have read that maybe I would still be married.
All joking aside I have heard that is a great book. It's also through my divorce (my decision) & some other things happening to me (not my decision) that have made me see things down the alley of "love" a bit different. I have become more cynical in MANY areas, but NOT in the area of loving people. Loving hurting people especially and let's face it almost everyone hurts.
