Love
Love can be defined as a strong feeling of
deep affection for somebody or something. Love can be classified into various
types: universal love, parental love, friendly love, sexual love or romantic
love, married love, neighborly love, monetary love and specific love. Universal
love means you love all things and beings created by Allah. For example,
Coleridge talks of universal love in his poem "The Rime of the Ancient
Mariner". Parental love is the affection
exists between parents and children parents for their children. Friendly
love is what friends have for each other. Lovers have romantic or sexual love
for each other.' Married love is the love of
the married couple. When you love some hobby or habit or game, it is
specific love. For example, your love for study of Shakespeare. Neighbourly
love is the love for your neighbour. Monetary love is the strong passion that
you have for money. The advantage of love is that it "conquers all".
It makes the world go round. The disadvantage or danger of love cannot be
ascribed to every kind of love. For example, universal love is always good, but
monetary love is always bad. There is a proverb, "The love of money is the
root of all evil." Too much
romantic love leads to death or suicide. Bacon rightly said, "Nuptial love
maketh mankind; friendly love perfecteth it; but wanton love corrupteth or
embaseth it." Love should be for an appropriate person or thing, and in
appropriate measure.
