Pages : 99
Book Description
Do you want love more than you’re afraid of it? What if I tell you that your soulmate is about to knock on your door? Are you ready to receive this amazing person into your life? If you have the desire to be with a soulmate, love and marriage is not only possible, it’s your destiny. The main reason you don’t have big love in your life yet is because you haven’t been ready to receive it. If you believe deep down that you’re not worthy of love, guess what? You manifest your own reality. But you can take back control of the direction of your love life, and it’s easier than you think. Part One of this book will shed light on what’s been holding you back, providing journal writing and meditation exercises to remove any blockages you may have. You might have to dig up some old pain, fears, and insecurities to release them, but it’s worth making the space in your heart to welcome in love. In Part Two, we’ll get to the fun stuff—letting your soulmate in! You’ll get to create your dream relationship, make a vision board, learn to keep your love vibration high, make a bucket list of all the things you want to do with your soulmate once you are together, and more. Author and relationship expert Elizabeth N. Doyd has written a book based on her twenty years of spiritual studies and eleven years of helping others find love with her soulmate secrets. “The Love Book” includes plenty of journal writing exercises because journaling is an effective technique used by psychologists, psychiatrists and other coaches. When you lay down your deepest, toughest feelings in writing, you can examine your internal mechanisms to make the necessary changes. If you do this powerful work, you won’t be projecting your insecurities, fears and other personal issues onto your partner. You won’t make your soulmate the sole purpose of existence. This book is not just about how to find your soulmate. It’s also bout discovering yourself, what you want and uncovering your purpose in life. When you’re whole and complete, you won’t exude the energy of neediness and decency that is so counterproductive in attracting love. Law of attraction applies to love too; like attracts like, and when you exude love, you get love! This book is NOT for you if you’re looking for flirting and seduction techniques. Instead it’s about reframing your negative beliefs and thinking patterns, and making inner shifts in order to attract long-lasting fulfillment and true soulmate love.

Work Mate Marry Love
Author: Debora L. Spar
Publisher: Macmillan + ORM
ISBN: 0374716218
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 305
Book Description
A crucial guide to life before—and after—Tinder, IVF, and robots. What will happen to our notions of marriage and parenthood as reproductive technologies increasingly allow for newfangled ways of creating babies? What will happen to our understanding of gender as medical advances enable individuals to transition from one set of sexual characteristics to another, or to remain happily perched in between? What will happen to love and sex and romance as our relationships migrate from the real world to the Internet? Can people fall in love with robots? Will they? In short, what will happen to our most basic notions of humanity as we entangle our lives and emotions with the machines we have created? In Work Mate Marry Love, Harvard Business School professor and former Barnard College president Debora L. Spar offers an incisive and provocative account of how technology has transformed our intimate lives in the past, and how it will do so again in the future. Surveying the course of history, she shows how marriage as we understand it resulted from the rise of agriculture, and that the nuclear family emerged with the industrial revolution. In their day, the street light, the car, and later the pill all upended courtship and sex. Now, as we enter an era of artificial intelligence and robots, how will our deepest feelings and attachments evolve? In the past, the prevailing modes of production produced a world dominated by heterosexual, mostly-monogamous, two-parent families. In the future, however, these patterns are almost certain to be reshaped, creating entirely new norms for sex and romance, and for the construction of families and the raising of children. Steering clear of both techno-euphoria and alarmism, Spar offers a bold and inclusive vision of how our lives might be changed for the better.

Love
Author: Anthony Walsh
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1351508180
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 319
Book Description
Love is a little word with a universe of meanings and has engaged people's interest throughout human history. The need to give and receive love lies deep within human nature. Philosophers, poets, theologians, sociologists, and scientists have all attempted to explain its exact origin, but is it an evolutionary adaptation, or a social construct?Walsh discusses that the nature of and need for love has biological origins. He draws upon Darwin's sexual selection theory to define the perceptions of love by infants through the process of experience-dependent brain wiring. He observes that mother love makes a child capable of loving and that father love makes a child feel worthy of love. He appraises the origin and purpose of romantic love in his discussions on sexual reproduction by looking at chemical and neurological responses to love and the influence of love on one's physical and mental health.With frequent quotes from literary masters like Shakespeare to orient one's scientific and humanistic understanding of love, Walsh goes on to explore various styles of romantic love, including monogamy, promiscuity, bartering love, and betrayed love; the effects of a skewed sex ratio on dating and mating practices; and the age-old quest for a perfect society populated by perfect people obeying the biblical command to "love one another."

The Ethical Demand
Author: K. E. Løgstrup
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0192598058
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 382
Book Description
The Ethical Demand (1956) by K. E. Løgstrup is one of the great works of modern moral philosophy: it is presented here in a new translation with introduction and notes. Løgstrup puts forward his distinctive view concerning our vulnerability to each other and what this requires of us in response. He starts by considering Jesus's 'proclamation' to love your neighbour and how this can be understood in 'purely human terms' as relating to basic features of our existence. Reflecting on the phenomenon of trust, Løgstrup emphasizes the fundamental interdependence of human life and how this gives rise to an 'ethical demand' on us to care for the other, which he characterizes as radical, silent, one-sided, and unfulfillable. In order to make sense of a demand of this sort, Løgstrup argues, we must see 'life as a gift', rather than treating ourselves as the sovereign grounds for our own existence. He contrasts this demand to social norms, which are often reciprocal in this way, and argues that while such norms are changeable, the ethical demand itself is absolute. Løgstrup therefore makes a fundamental contribution to our understanding of the nature of-and basis for-our obligations to each other. In this critical edition, Løgstrup's original text is accurately rendered into readable English and paired with an introduction which explains the main themes and wider context of the work.
