Elements of love

Elements of love

Care: love means caring for the life and growth of whatever we love.

Responsibility: it's not about taking responsibilities for external things but being responsible means to be ready to respond internally.

Respect: Respect doesn't mean to be submissive to another person. It means that see the other humans as they are, be conscious of their uniqueness. I don't expect them to be as I want them to be, but I love them as they are.

Knowledge: you can't take responsibility or care for a person without knowing her or him. But the more you know a person the more you realize that you don't know her.

What we think love is

What we think love is

Most of us think that love is passive, that you can be loved and that you fall in love. Not that love is actually a form of art.

Ashley Anthony

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!
