Love is a word that is different for many people. People interpret the word how they believe it best suits them. People often believe that love is best represented by showing it to someone important to them. On the other hand, there are people that know what they desire from other individuals, so they convert that desire into pity hopeless love that they can never obtain. A person can extend their love from oneself to others in many ways.
The poem “When Giving Is All We Have shows that sympathy among two people can potentially be the best type of love. To know that you are not alone and that you have someone there for you can be a very important feature of love that people seek. Alberto Rios states, “We give because someone gave to us.

In many times a person can be living day to day, but if they see that another person is having it worse than them they will do all they can to help them out. The ones in need often give more than the ones who have more than enough. The most important thing to them is that they were able to help someone out at least in the smallest way. When people get together and contribute to each other in any way, shape, or form the world’s humanity is helped out.

Elie Weisel once said the opposite of love is not hate, it's indifference. In Elie Wiesel's memoir Night, the idea that indifference is the opposite of love is expressed through the dehumanization and the father-son relationships. While some might argue that the opposite of love is hate, the opposite of love is indifference. The disgusting event known as the holocaust wasn't only one of the darkest times in our history, but also a great example of indifference. Love is a positive feeling towards someone and hate is a generally negative feeling.

Love, in its original meaning, is an unconditional action of putting someone else’s welfare before one’s own. As the world has grown older, mankind’s definition of love has been warped and has dwindled down to nothing more than a fickle feeling of affection and romantic attraction– into something conditional and usually very temporary. The idea of love has been reduced to an ideal of reciprocity; “love” has become self-serving instead of self-sacrificing. Unfortunately, love often dies because of one or another person’s selfishness and pride. Pride and love engage in war in every relationship and, unless love is in its true form (unconditional), pride strangles it.

A lovestruck Romeo notices there has been an encounter in the town between serving men of opposing houses and he paradoxically talks about how even though there was hate and violence, rooted at the bottom of the conflict there was love. Using strategically placed language Shakespeare creates a paradox when he juxtaposes two words in order to explain the relationship they have with each other. For instance, he writes, “O brawling love, O loving hate” (1.1.181). Shakespeare juxtaposes “loving” and “hate” in order to imply that one cannot have one without the other which creates a paradox, contradicting the idea of love being only a happy subject. If a person falls deeply in love with something there is also a hate that comes with that love.

In one circumstance, we may feel the need to give to those who are poor to keep them from getting in our personal space; and in other circumstances we feel that we give to others out of the kindness of our heart. I completely agree with Ascher and her views on compassion, because I have been in similar situation where I have questioned why people give money, and whether they give with a whole heart or out of necessity. Furthermore, this essay can teach us plenty of lessons that can be utilized throughout our lives so we can teach others and make them aware of the need to be more

Alan Watts once said, “Never pretend to a love which you do not actually feel, for love is not ours to command.” (brainyquotes.com). Watts is saying that we can't just say that we love someone, we have to feel our heart swell with the love we have for that person. In William Shakespeare's, The Tragedy of Romeo and Juliet, Romeo and Juliet are not truly in love because they automatically fall ‘in love’ after seeing each other once, they decide to get married a few hours after they meet and they are too immature to actually know what love is . One reason Romeo and Juliet are not truly in love is that they fell in love right after they meet (lust at first sight).

Every moment is a memorable part of the journey of life. I have always appreciated the value of giving to others because I believe that just being able to lend a hand to others, no matter how trivial it may be, is what makes life worth living.
