Romeo may feel defensive if the counselor moves in too close, for example, and may interpret this as a threat thanks to his previous experiences in a violent environment (Murphy & Dillon 2010: 103).

Othello Shakespeare's Skepticism: Unconditional Love in Othello Unconditional love is said by some to be the unobtainable but righteous goal of all living humans. When and if we are capable of generating unconditional love towards our fellow man but in particular those who are closest to us many believe we are capable of ascension to a better place, be it the Christian heaven which stresses unconditional love for one's fellow man and
Love For centuries, great leaders, entertainers, mothers, teacher and a variety of others have searched for the meaning of love. However, even the best philosophers, with the profound thoughts, could not fully define love. Perhaps the reason for this is that love is such a broad subject. There are dozens of answers to the question, "What is love?" Love can be selfless, selfish, giving, jealous, unconditional, temporary, and many other things. People
Love In the Symposium, Socrates repeats the words of Diotima that love “is of the good’s being one’s own always” (Symposium 268). These words essentially get to the heart of Augustine’s own feelings towards his mother Monica, who would be recognized by the Church as a saint: as Augustine observes, she was faithful to God all her life, dutiful to her husband, careful of her children and always laboring to serve
Merit: Reflection David Brooks (2015) makes a valid point in his New York Times article "Love and Merit." His aim is to show that parental love is more important and effective than meritocratic love.
