Unfixable by Tessa Bailey Pdf

A new adult novel from Entangled's Embrace imprint... He's the last thing she wants...but the only thing she needs. Willa Peet isn't interested in love. She's been there, done that, and has the shattered heart to prove it. Ready to shake the breakup, she heads to Dublin, Ireland. But there's a problem. A dark-haired, blue-eyed problem with a bad attitude that rivals her own. And he's not doling out friendly Irish welcomes. Shane Claymore just wants to race. The death of his father forced him off the Formula One circuit, but he's only staying in Dublin long enough to sell the Claymore Inn and get things in order for his mother and younger sister. He never expected the sarcastic American girl staying at the inn to make him question everything. But even as Willa and Shane's fiery natures draw them together, their pasts threaten to rip them apart. Can Shane give up racing to be with the woman he loves, or will Willa's quest to resurrect the tough-talking, no-shit-taking girl she used to be destroy any hope of a future together?

71 Forms of LOVE by Anas Ameen Pdf

When you say "I love you" to someone or something, what do you mean by that? What do you mean when you say "I love you" to your mother? And is it the same love that you and your partner share? Is it the same love you have for your favorite food? Or for your favorite pet? And what about the love for your best friend? Is it the same love you feel about your clothes? Your car? Your city? And if the feeling of love is strong, raging, and flowing, is there a point where it reaches a certain peak and starts to weaken? Or is it constantly nourishing and expanding? Do you love yourself? And what about loving the people around you? Even if you don't know them? Love in my belief, and according to my enjoyable experience, is a large orchestra that contains multiple types of musicians, which each is enjoying and radiating a unique form of love, but all are harmoniously playing a wonderful symphony that connect all of them to the one source of everything. Love is an essential component of the pure and genuine human instinct, that is not contaminated by misconceptions and twisted doctrines (intentionally or unintentionally), or by the separation believes about the nature of the relationship between the tree and the branch, as the branch in itself is not separate or independent from the tree but to the contrary, it is an inherent part of it. Mawlana Jalal al-Din al-Rumi is one of the pioneers of the global love ideology that does not discriminate between human beings in any way, but melts them in one pot of kindness, compassion, and unity, and such wisdoms have echoed in the hearts of love longing souls around the globe, so his wis*dom have reached the 4 corners of the world and his words overflowing with divine love have become a global calling for human unity with the one and only source of LOVE. Some of his famous wisdoms go like this: "Your job is not to search for love, but rather to remove the internal barriers that prevent you from reaching it within you." Just as the lazy darkness dissipates in the presence of a glimmer of light, also the difficulties of the game of life will disappear by simply allowing the light of love to shine through the sides of the soul to replace the thoughts of separation, fear, and hatred for the self and for the other, whatever or whoever it is. Until today, I was able to count 71 forms of love that I lived as a personal experience, and in this book I would like to share them with you in the form of lite short stories, hoping that they might stimulate the same beautiful echo that I touched in my life and still do, for it is in fact seventy one gifts from the beloved, who enlightened my vision and my insight, so I saw, realized and loved all those gifts and their giver, and I still excitingly looking for more. These forms are what I have been able to see and practice until this day, but they are not all forms of love, because as I mentioned to you earlier, every creature is a unique substance worthy of love, and perhaps you and I could practice many other wonderful forms in the future, each according to our desire and the extent of our openness and acceptance of what the game of life offers us. My goal of this book is not to gain the acceptance and approval of everyone, because satisfying all people is an impossible goal, but I am sure that many, and perhaps you, dear reader among them, have refreshed their hearts with some of these wonderful forms of love, and this book is to gather those lovers who share common interests. You might not be interested in all subjects of the book, and that is fine because as I mentioned before, it is my own experience and yours is different for sure, based on your own interests. Allow me now to take you on a journey inside my heart, where these forms inhabit and share the spacious place with their different sizes, shapes, and sweet melodies that generously spread In all sides of my life. Let's go.... ANAS

All About Love by bell hooks Pdf

A New York Times bestseller and enduring classic, All About Love is the acclaimed first volume in feminist icon bell hooks' "Love Song to the Nation" trilogy. All About Love reveals what causes a polarized society, and how to heal the divisions that cause suffering. Here is the truth about love, and inspiration to help us instill caring, compassion, and strength in our homes, schools, and workplaces. “The word ‘love’ is most often defined as a noun, yet we would all love better if we used it as a verb,” writes bell hooks as she comes out fighting and on fire in All About Love. Here, at her most provocative and intensely personal, renowned scholar, cultural critic and feminist bell hooks offers a proactive new ethic for a society bereft with lovelessness--not the lack of romance, but the lack of care, compassion, and unity. People are divided, she declares, by society’s failure to provide a model for learning to love. As bell hooks uses her incisive mind to explore the question “What is love?” her answers strike at both the mind and heart. Razing the cultural paradigm that the ideal love is infused with sex and desire, she provides a new path to love that is sacred, redemptive, and healing for individuals and for a nation. The Utne Reader declared bell hooks one of the “100 Visionaries Who Can Change Your Life.” All About Love is a powerful, timely affirmation of just how profoundly her revelations can change hearts and minds for the better.

Love and Society by Swen Seebach Pdf

Why does love matter? Love and Society discusses the meaning and importance of love for contemporary society. Love is not only an emotion that occurs in our intimate relationships; it is a special emotion that allows us to relate to each other in a lasting fashion, to create out of our individual pasts a shared past, which enables us to project a shared future. Bringing together the idea of Simmel’s second order forms with theories of love, this insightful volume shows that the answer to why love is so central to society can be found in the social transformation of the last two centuries. It also explains how we can build our strongest social bonds on the fragility of an emotions thanks to the creation of "special moments" (love rituals) and "intimate stories" (love myths) that are central to the weaving of lasting social bonds. Going to the cinema, reading a book together or sharing songs are forms of weaving bonds of love and part of the cycle of love. But love is not only shared between two people; the desire and the search for love is something we share with almost all members of society. With rich empirical data, an analysis of love’s transformation in modernity, and a critical engagement with classical and contemporary theorists, this book provides a lively discussion on the meaning and importance of love for today’s society. It will be of interest to undergraduate and postgraduate students and postdoctoral researchers who are interested in fields such as Sociology of Emotions, Sociological Theory and Sociology of Morality.

The Four Loves by C. S. Lewis Pdf

The Four Loves is a 1960 book by C. S. Lewis which explores the nature of love from a Christian and philosophical perspective through thought experiments. The book was based on a set of radio talks from 1958 which had been criticized in the U.S. at the time for their frankness about sex. C.S. Lewis examines storge or empathy love; philia, friendship love; eros, romantic love; and agape, or God love. Excerpt: "GOD is love," says St. John. When I first tried to write this book I thought that his maxim would provide me with a very plain highroad through the whole subject. I thought I should be able to say that human loves deserved to be called loves at all just in so far as they resembled that Love which is God."
