What Love Really Is and Why It Matters
Вставка
- Опубліковано 21 жов 2024
- We talk a lot about love without fully understanding exactly what it means. True love is less an appreciation of strength than a tolerance of (and kindness towards) what is weak and misshapen in another person.

"There is so much talk of love in our societies, it would be natural to think that we must by now know what it is and why it counts. Love is the excited feeling we get in the presence of someone of unusual accomplishment and talent - great intelligence or beauty for the most part - whom we hope will reciprocate our interest and whom we badly want to touch, caress and one day share our lives with. This definition sounds so plausible and enjoys such powerful cultural endorsement, we are apt to miss another vision of love altogether, this one focused not so much on the appreciation of strength as on a tolerance of, and kindness towards, what is weak and misshapen…"

thank you for this 🌷
We love you :)
You changed my life, I have read all your books.
How do i not love everyone then?
Whad is luv.. baby don't herd me.. don't herd me.. no more..
It’s so easy to love attractive, smart, and seemingly-put-together people. Look at celebrities. But I’m learning that real love is about looking at people’s hearts, realising that we’re all flawed, and being forgiving, instead of focusing on material things that fade away.
Yes, when you love someone's heart, you'll keep loving him/her unless he/she changes him/herself from inside.
That's just smart to not love someone on a higher level. It won't be returned.
Amen
Yes! Exactly this!!
If you really get to know someone, you'll realize they are a fool. Nothing they say matters. They don't believe their own beliefs. They were a baby that grew up and copied what others were doing, saying. They never knew themselves, just adopted a series of personas. They are a mirror.
This channel is the best thing that ever happened to youtube

No
I find The Personal Development School and Eckhart Tolle, both way superior.
This channel is ok....but it’s like the tip of iceberg of what’s up. The other channels get to way greater depths, far more powerful for true evolution.
You're not a machine with broken parts, you're a human with unmet needs.

I really needed to hear that today. Thank you.
awwwww
Sounds like a machine with broken parts to me 🙄
I’m forever grateful for this man guiding me through the relationship I don’t have.
😂😂😂😂
chuckle, me too. I was once told by a doctor, it is healthier to be alone than be in a relationship when you are not able. I attract alcoholics so single life for me.
el oh el .. same
You don't know how much this comments means to me. You are the voice I couldn't have.
Hahaha, nah its the relationship you dont have YET, But you will
Your videos make me think that there’s so much potencial trapped in every of us.
There is
Hope you have found yours :)
Yep, we are imperfect perfection :) Do you agree?
We seek outside the wonders we have inside
Love is not an emotion it is your entie being -rumi

If love had a name it would be Jesus
I think a successful relationship is one that moves from 'love as admiration' to 'love as generosity'.
We are attracted to people whose characteristics we admire. We wish we were more like them. We idealize them. We think, "That small bit of them that I know is perfect! I bet all of them is perfect!" And, if we spend a lot of time with them, we become disillusioned; we realize they are not perfect. In fact, they have some habits and attitudes and beliefs that are quite irritating. If we can gracefully negotiate the 'fall' from ideal to human, if we can look at them with curiosity and wonder rather than judgement, our love morphs from a simple admiration or adoration to generous commitment and investment in the life of another.
This is beautiful
Love, _in spite of..._
@@DJ-bs4uf thank you for your kind words.
What a wonderful way to put it
this was brilliantly put.
I guess learning to love makes us better people. In learning to love, we can love ourselves. By loving ourselves, we can love others. Love isn’t perfect, the rough edges, the dents, the wrinkles: that’s what makes it beautiful. Love is the awkward, weird mush we want despite the caveats of losing it. Love is human.
Very beautifully said :)
Love is an animal instinct, that's why people in love chronically mis-judge each others' value and breed more animals like themselves.
Best comment!
@@marcuschan3066 Love your captors, love your slavery, love the foolish leftist ideology which makes you feel morally virtuous so you can be more easily induced to willingly participate in your own self-destruction.
"Nächstenliebe" is a German biblical term that describes this concept very well. Don't only love people because they are beautiful or intelligent but love them because they are humans, just like you.
Wow, that describes it very well!
I love the German language for many reasons, but gorgeous compound words like Nächstenliebe are the icing on a beautiful cake. Thank you.
i love that❤
Have a heart that never hardens,
A temper that never tires,
And a touch that never hurts.

Well, I'm doomed
@@thereisnosanctuary6184You are only doomed if you are resisting to change, there is something called neural plasticity, your own thought can re wire your brain.
Don't love what is perfect, that is too easy to do. True love is loving what is imperfect. That is my takeaway from this wonderful video. Thanks!
Love is letting a person be himself without wanting to make him into your own version of him.
Love is accepting his choices even if he chooses someone over you.
"True love involves precisely not giving someone what is their due, but giving them what they need in order to survive".
Alain's voice is the only voice which keeps me coming back to school of life and its videos
For me true love comes from seeing someone vulnerability and weaknesses but still showing them compassion without judgements by admitting our own flaw too. When we feel at ease with someone and free to share our burdens and weaknesses and be truly our self without fear of judgements and negative reactions, That is when true love come to place
Love in its purest form is empathy, and loving someone even on their worst days. Love starts with loving ourselves wholeheartedly, and loving others the same way we love ourselves. People who don't love themselves can't love other people properly.
Indeed.
So start by having empathy for yourself? What is empathy though? Is it the feeling of caring about oneself and others?
@@brianlittrell797 somewhat yes, be kind to yourself, respect yourself, and love yourself.Empathy is the ability to understand and share someone's feelings.I relate it closely to EQ.
@@vanessaaventura I feel like my ability to feel love is muted, turned down very low. Maybe because of trauma and chronic strong anxiety. And I have several insecurities that don't help either. Like a fear of not being good enough. Good enough to have the kind of relationships that I would like to have and experience the kind of life I would like to experience.
@@brianlittrell797 Yes, chronic anxiety probably also stems from your trauma. You need to address that and your insecurities first to feel love.Try a therapist or self help books/resources.I struggled with that too, but I've improved a lot. All the best and good luck 😊
When I imagine trying to practice this art of love, it's so much easier to envision myself doing it for strangers who have a 'clean slate' in regards to hurting me personally (on an emotional level), than it is a family member or close friend who has hurt me deeply and betrayed my trust.
"Love is patient, love is kind...it always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always preserves. Love never fails." - 1 Corinthians 13:4
Love like there's no tomorrow! 💚
Amen 🙏❤️
Also, Jesus Christ Our Lord and Saviour is coming back soon for His Bride, The Church, make sure you are ready for The Rapture my friend 👍
There's no rapture, that's misreading the Bible...
@@mauijttewaal I am sorry that you have been deceived my friend, but there is plenty of scripture to back up The Rapture, and the fact that it is Pre-Tribulational as well. Watch this video more more information: ua-cam.com/video/00QxhYbKBw0/v-deo.html
@@mauijttewaal These following verses all point to a Rapture of the Church, the Bride of Jesus Christ, before the tribulation period or at least around the beginning of it:
1 Thessalonians 4:16-17 KJV
“For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord”
1 Thessalonians 5:9-10 KJV
“For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ, Who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with him.”
1 Corinthians 15:51-52
“Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, In a moment in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.”
Revelation 3:10-11
“Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I will also keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth. Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take they crown.”
God bless you all 🙏
im literally soooo happy to finally hear his voice
Me too! Although, of course, the other voices are very beautiful too.
That was the best definition of love I've ever heard. Now if only everyone else decided to practice this.🖤💯
Love is a lot like happiness. Everyone wants to find it, but very few can say what it actually is.
Meh.
Wow...my mind just got blown there :D
You just need to use way more words to define love if you don't use some word approximating "soul". Love is like a soul-overlap in my opinion. Then you can easily describe attachment and unconditionality in terms of transformations of 2 souls, as opposed to describing them in higher-level (i.e. more vague) terms like vulnerability, feelings, understanding.
It's caring, respect, responding to the needs of the other, inviting the other to know you, learning who that person really is, treasuring a person, being sincere but not brutally honest, really listening to what that person has to say, honestly sharing your feelings and hopes with them, not using or abusing them ...
Happiness is fulfillment, which is fleeting. Love isn't fleeting, it's more like a memory, sometimes sweet like cake and sometimes like being branded.
We like people for their strengths, we love people for their weaknesses
Well said. I like that.
@@shanghaisenator The pleasure was all mine. Have a peaceful day friend.
It hits me so hard
Perfectly said! Thank you.
@@graemeroberts2935 You're welcome friend 🙂
This was so heartwarming. It's a shame not more people think this way.
That said, the fact that so few people think that way illustrates more that everyone is in their own way, crooked and broken and ugly; sometimes on the outside and sometimes on the inside. But they are all still deserving of love, we all still struggle.
Even incels?
Well said! Thank you for this comment
You say? Interesting, but from my experience love is not for me/I do not deserve love.
Everything I did, was nothing more than waste of time and energy.
I'm just curious, what made you say that?
Nonsense.
Many people are so abhorrent that they deserve every evil thing that befalls them.
Was Hitler, Stalin, or Trump deserving of love?
@@threethrushes I'm talking about people generally. Not specific evil people.

Actually it should be equal to your own for it to be healthy. Life needs balance. Loving others equal to yourself. Afterall all persons are equally important. That includes you.
*every family has a person who breaks the chain of poverty. I hope you will be that person!*
Well thank you! Have a nice day!
the real poverty is one without love, hopeless and unforgiving. One who has yet to realize the true riches of love and care for himself, among others. What you put out to the universe, so shall you receive 💗
Compassion and empathy lead to “maitri”,
the concept of loving and being open to others and ourselves.
Great topic, thanks for sharing. 👍🏽
I have seen and been a victim of superficial love who had abandoned me when I was diagnosed with a life altering and threatening disease. Slapped divorce on me when I was distraught and in pain. When a person can leave her spouse in time of distress, it made me distrust the whole concept of love. I don’t know when I will be able to love or be loved. Thanks to my family for holding me back and saving me from being lost in trenches of depression.
I love my daughter dad, grandmother, grandfather, mom, sister, brother, niece, nephew, granddaughters. I know love, we all feel it in our hearts.
„Tolerance of and kindness towards what is weak and mis-shaped.“ So true yet so hard 🙏
As a Christian myself I absolutely approve of this video. It perfectly sums up what true love is all about and how none of our mistakes and weaknesses can ever overpower this strongest of all forces. Thank you for this masterpiece!
How freeing (but also challenging) would it be to live life this way.. The world, everyone and us can easily drown in hatred, drama, anger against others and especially after realising that there are people who is just unwilling to understand. Can you imagine being able to easily allow someone to act the way they act, accept the version of them with love and carry on forward with our lives spreading more love and understanding than only carrying built-up anger and frustration against the world and humanity? I can imagine it's challenging, but what a dream would it be, especially in this age... I would love to start living this way... Thank you School of Life! For always introducing new perspectives in life :)
Your timing is just perfect!!
Hah
So perfect
"An act of love always tends towards two things; to the good that one wills, and to the person for whom one wills it." -St. Thomas Aquinas
The highest kind of love would be _unconditioned,_ towards all beings. You don't have to agree with someone to feel compassion
This is why I’m vegan. Didn’t know how much harm I was causing other sentient beings. When I did, I tried my best to minimize the suffering. It’s easy and rewarding.
I think he's talking about romantic love here.
I've learnt in the most horrible ways that when you give unconditional love to others, they often don't reciprocate, they even hurt you so deeply and so hard that they destroy you and the only thing you can think of us is the terrifying prospect of putting yourself out of your misery.
So my advice with be: don't give unconditional love right from the start. Put some conditions, like most people do (not because they're selfish but because it's the healthy thing to do), and state them very gently, but also clearly and as often as needed. Then, as times passes by and the two of you are each making your efforts to make the relationship work better, only then you can gradually retract the conditions and enjoy a truly unconditional love for each other. And if your significant other is not making nor willing to make any efforts, then love YOURSELF unconditionally and break up that relationship that will damage your life and screw you up for real.
@@x2y3a1j5 You don't know what unconditional love is.
@@robertwoods4229 Prove that I don't know it. As I said in my comment, I've learnt in the most horrible ways that when you give unconditional love to others, they often don't reciprocate. That means that I've given unconditional love to many people, only to be horribly disappointed and deceived. That's why I'm advising people not to give unconditional love right from the start, bc that equals a blind, almost suicidal temerity, a blind faith on the honesty and purity of the receiver of your unconditional love, and that, my friend, is one of the most risky bets you'll be doing. The "right" unconditional love, which does and should exist, is the one that you build over the course of time when you know the other person much better, and you learnt to love them unconditionally despite their defaults, dark sides, etc. Unconditional love is not blind, and like all true loves, may make you take decisions against the person your unconditional love is directed to when that person's actions are hurting themselves. Let me put you a personal example: my ex-gf had been sick with anorexia nervosa almost all of her life. She didn't have the kind of feminine forms I like. I truly loved her all the same (I still do). She was very manipulative (almost all the anorexic people are, they exert emotional blackmail on everyone). She wanted to extort me the solemn vow that I would never put her in a hospital should her situation aggravate. Because I loved her unconditionally, I always was very clear with her that, in truth, I would put her in a clinic or hospital whenever I felt/deemed that her life was at risk. I'm not going to let die of self-starvation the woman I love! You would need to be a kind of sick "lover" to allow the love of your life to starve herself to death.
Maybe you're ticked off by my claim that unconditional love should be reciprocal, as in the expected reciprocity invalidating that your love is truly "unconditional". Let me point out first that unconditional love may exist between same sex friends, work colleagues, parents and their children, and so on. It does not need to be only the romantic/sexual kind. Of course that over time we may and will disappoint and deceive them, and vice versa, it's unfortunately in the normal course of human nature and things. It just happens. However, we still love them unconditionally despite their shortcomings (and hopefully we are loved in return the same way, despite our own shortcomings). But, when the objects of our unconditional love, over time, most of the actions they do and the words they say all they do is hurt you, not only emotionally but also in hurting your relationships with other people, and putting your well-being at risk (for instance, constantly making you lose your jobs because you need to tend for them constantly or arguing with you about work hours, or whatever), when they eat up all of your savings, etc., then at some point the unconditional love you had for them has inadvertently turned into something entirely different, notwithstanding the appearances of being "unconditional love": it's a self-destructive pattern you have entered in a toxic relationship, which is gradually leading you to some from of hubris, self-destruction, or great harm as in altering the course of your life in dangerous ways. Now, can a love be truly unconditional in a toxic relationship? Can you as a son truly unconditionally love you very own mother when she has always gotten a way to make you miserable and she's tearing your marriage down, or making your very own children be against you, or anything like that? At some point, you have entered "martyrdom" because deep inside you have a fancy or belief that somehow your self-sacrifice will guarantee you a heavenly amnesty for your sins and secure a spot in Heaven, or something like that. Well, that's not unconditional love, because you're "loving" to secure a spot in Heaven, you're doing it for self-interest.
I posit that "real", "true unconditional love" is extremely difficult to be directed to individual people (like a romantic interest, a father for his daughter, etc.). In reality, "unconditional love" would be that we may have for the whole mankind (as Jesus Christ) or the Nature (Gaia, the numerous co-dependencies between the different ecosystems and all living beings, plants included). It's easier to unconditionally love a large figure in abstract (all mankind) that individuals. And when you do love individuals unconditionally, it does not mean that you "have" to unconditionally say yes to their every whim and fancy. And it does not mean that you turn yourself into a martyr, always loving them and always getting beaten up by them, emotionally and financially or whatever other way. You may love them unconditionally despite not longer having any relationship with them at all, because you still love them forever in your heart, but it has been better for both of you to let her go. However, should the relationship still be going, the expectancy of some sort of reciprocation (getting some unconditional love back) is very human and normal because we, who do love unconditionally, we would always love back unconditionally, sooner or later, the person loving us first unconditionally. It's not the same thing as being "lovestruck". They are close concepts, but not the same thing. Unconditional love is a conscious choice you do to love someone despite their shortcomings and their hurting you... within reasonable limits. What you're referring to is, perhaps, "blind love", which is a close concept but not truly "unconditional". Happy to discuss these points further with you, if you want to.
It’s great to emphasize compassionate love, but I think it’s important not to make compassion the only key to love, otherwise we’d completely neglect the importance of being attracted to virtue.
.
Virtue inspires passion, and passion is vital in relationships 😇❤️
What is virtue? And could you give examples?
I've learned that love is a choice we make.
I would cry... but I need to have clear eyes to rewatch this again. Beautiful and wise words.
This is beautiful. It actually reassured me that I'm doing something right in the struggle of being patient with my relationship. Thank you.
As well as loving another person, you also should value yourself. It's important that you are safe and not treated with harshness or cuelty
Hey you, yes you, you beautiful-handsome-pretty-delightful person reading, I hope you have an awesome day. You deserve it.
I broke up with a guy who truly loved me but struggled with expressing his love to me. So I appreciate the sentiment but yeah I'm feeling like a piece of shit and I dont want him back but I also feel like I deserve to die alone but truthfully I don't want to but I'd rather be alone than in a relationship that isn't fulfilling to me and this video and all the other lovely comments are killing me because they're lovingly telling me I'm a scumbag. But I appreciate especially your kind words to everyone else who reads your comment 💕
"They are watching you... but you are stronger, more powerful than you can imagine, they cannot harm you anymore... you are made of light, you are eternal" This came to my mind while meditating with this music... my heart rate was strong, I started to swing softly... like... vibrating? I don't know... just wanted to share... Love to everyone... specially YOU!
Love is most needed in the places we least want to go
What a wonderful essay on love. Exactly what I believe! And how much more interesting the world becomes when you learn to see beyond the superficial outward brokenness and see the needy often valiant but injured person within.
I think love is something different for each one of us.
Yes.
Very fitting that this drops on the first day of Lent! Pockets of North America, where I am, are dealing with brutally cold, sub-zero temperatures right now. The morning low in my college town yesterday was -30 F. Winters like these always demand extra effort with charity: you can't just throw money or supplies at the homeless. You have to *bring them inside with you* if you want them to survive. A difficult and sort of scary thing to do, but absolutely the most loving thing to do.
Brr... Good luck! Love from Germany.
We all want someone to love us at our worst.
To know we are Unperfect but still no know our worth.

Compassion and empathy.
Fill your heart with compassion and empathy, kindness and forgiveness - for yourself and all others - and your Life will be full of love, always
Love is a reward offered to any pleasant feeling, things or people bring us.
Forgiveness is as much for you as it is for them. I feel this is the foundation of being able to love unconditionally.
Love is unconditional empathy and compassion for everyone. It is able to see and experience the beauty and the good in everything even if there appears to be no good or no beauty to the ego.
Yes!!! As someone who has only known and sought this. Yes!
This channel is parent to me. It teaches me not to live a good but better life. Thankyou Sir...🙏🙂
Here's a piece of dialogue from Vinland Saga that provides an interesting perspective on love:
(for context, this is a conversation between a prince, who is mourning the death of his father figure, and a priest)
"He was a faithful man, even in death. In this world now, there is no one who loves me anymore."
*You've found enlightenment. But you are wrong.*
"Huh?"
*Was the emotion Ragnar felt toward you love?
In order to keep you safe, he watched as 62 innocent villagers were killed*
"Huh?"
....
*Your Highness... Love, what is it?*
"Are you asking what love is?
Do you think Ragnar didn't love me?"
*Yes*
"Then let me ask you If what Ragnar felt wasn't true love, then who can embody love correctly?"
....
*He's right there... See?*
_points to a dead body_
*(cont.)When he died, he became more beautiful than anyone among the living. He's love itself.*
*He will never hate others or steal anymore.*
*He was abandoned there. He is going to give his body generously to the beasts and the insects.*
*He lies exposed to the wind and rain, but won't speak a single word in complaint.*
*Death. . . perfects a person."*
....
"Are you saying 'death' is the essence of love?"
*Yes*
"Then what is the feeling when parents care for their children, when a husband and wife care for each other, and when Ragnar cares for me?"
....
*It's discrimination..*
This was quite interesting but true in a way too.
Ah I've seen this show, I loved the priest's take on this topic; it's phenomenal.
Elaborate on the last line please
@@soumyabisht2509 The character Ragnar was partial towards the prince and didn't care about anyone else in particular. In fact he'd watched a village be burnt and did nothing. Similarly, a parent is partial to a child and is discriminative to other children hence the priest argues that this partiality is discrimination, not love.
Beautiful...
Yes the only definition of love that sticked with me is "to love someone or something is to take it as a part of yourself"
this guy perpetually brings up topics I've rarely thought of
Uhh gosh! When I already achieved this with my husband, but not with myself, towards myself. Hit me like a brick. Added to my mental health list.

Excellent appreciation of love and what it is. There is such a lack of it in this world at the moment!
Best educational channel on UA-cam!
A powerful message, however also somewhat mystifying love rather than simply answering the question. My best shot at a definition:
Love is the physical warmth we feel when feeling connected to others.
Similarities between ourselves and others, and socially approved qualities perhaps, can pave the way to a connection as these things can show us a clear way to engage with one another. However ultimately it is the intensity of that engagement that translates into the intensity of the love we experience with that person.
So the more engaged with an invested in a person we are, the more love we feel, regardless of their qualities. Love comes from effort and attention, not charisma.
Side-note: one of the things we need from those we engage with, is feeling known for all that we are. Being known creates a safe space for expectations and engagement. From someone who engages with sides of us that hardly anyone sees, we need the assurance of recognition more than from people we engage with in a more regular way.
Love is the recognition of our shared being.
Love in one single word: Compassion
I wish their app thrives as much as their UA-cam channel.
In my native language there is a saying: "Being loved is a great boon."

Love is trust. Upon oneself and the other. Faith. Empathy. Kindness. Fighting our own ego and flaws to make the world a better place for the other.
Love is the journey of finding how the other would fit perfectly into our own little imperfect world.
Just a reminder, Sometimes direct that unconditional love you have to yourself. Especially when things get tougher. You're gonna get through it, love :)
Sending good vibes and a dash of love.
This video is so painfully true... loving someone to just make his/her life better (compared than him/her on their own) is the most fulfilling and encouraging act we can ever achieve. Rather than just hoping to find that idea of human being that will make us happy when we are all just not perfect at all
it’s such an eye-opening definition of love. thank you!
Thank you wholeheartledly for this💛To love the fallible, the imperfect and the transient is to journey from the mulberry leaf to silk. To survive in love is to truly live in life. V grateful for these insights

Yes, and so then we could love ourselves.
Reminder: Live for today. Not yesterday, and not tomorrow. Live now.
To look beyond our/their faults, and see our/their needs. 🙏💝
Well, somebody has to say it. So Here I go: What is love? Baby don't hurt me, don't hurt me, no more, no mo' .. :)
I hope that you and your lover don't hurt each other any more. I hope you can be caring and encouraging to each other. I hope you'll be interested in each other and respectful, too. It would be lovely if you can tenderly treasure each other, listen to each other and try to understand each other.
Haddaway☺️
I always remember this quote : "anything is done out of love is beyond good and evil" - Nietzsche
only if we have such compassion and tolerance to ourselves we can offer it to others, otherwise we are just attracted to difficult people who will make us suffer.
love itself can be explain by economic theories, its essentially just an exchange of condition between 2 individuals
