This was a sweeping, thought-provoking journey through love in all its forms, from the intimate to the uncomfortable truths we’d rather not face. I especially appreciate how you tied the Greek concepts back to lived experience. “Love breathes” is going to stick with me.
Thanks for sharing how it resonated for you, Elham. Love is really so expansive and it’s really only through our own lives that we discover all its forms. In the West, we’ve been taught this singular idea of it which is so limiting and false. I appreciate your comment. 🖤
Yes exactly, love is too vast to be held by a single definition. It shapeshifts through each of us, and maybe that’s the point: to keep discovering its many faces in lived experience.
