All Four Love
Return to postsJust as there are four seasons and there are the four corners of the world,
we have four types of love:
Physical
Emotional
Mental
Spiritual.
We all need love in all of its forms, albeit in varying degrees depending on
the person. I have considered each one and given my thoughts on how they can manifest.
Physical love, perhaps the most obvious expression of love that comes
to mind when thinking of a couple, it is of course an important one. It is when
two people can pleasure each other through physical contact, and not just in a
sexual way. An embrace can be all things - comforting, soothing and arousing.
What can be more special than sharing your personal space with someone else?
Emotional love is the kind of love that transcends the bounds of
physical attraction and is more to do with the desire to care for and to
protect your partner. It is a yearning to understand and to know them.
Mental love means that an individual is committed to the other,
whether this commitment is reciprocated or not. In fact, the other person may
not even be physically present, yet the bond is strong. The person that is the
recipient of your unwavering love may not even respond in kind, however, the
love you feel for them will never be diminished in any way.
Spiritual love is arguably perhaps the purest and deepest form of
love, where two are connected from the heart and mind. The longing for one
another is so strong that they communicate with ease and know each other
implicitly. In fact, spiritual love makes it possible for communication without
the use of words. This form of love is nurturing and allows the other to grow and
flourish as it is patient and unconditional.
Having read the above, it would be interesting hearing what kind(s) of love
you would seek? Or have experienced? Are you someone who is content with just
connecting emotionally, or do you need all the kinds of love?
I for one, am all four love!
