Love Is 'As You Like It'

Of course, the Shakespeare's four couples are not love patterns either. There is only one pattern which all truly love couples follow for centuries, and this pattern requires only one thing: to be happy with whatever relationships you want or choose.

Love is different like everyone is different in his emotions, thoughts, feelings, ideals and styles. There are many love pattern stories they remain just written or told patterns which nobody wants or is able to follow. There are four love couples in the play: Rosalind and Orlando, Silvius and Phebe, Touchstone and Audrey, Olivier and Celia. Silvius belongs to the lower class and shows the model of pastoral love to his 'shepherdess' Phebe. Unlike Silvius who worships pastoral love crying and suffering his beloved Phebe ignores her idolization and Silvius' praying.

Silvius belongs to the lower class and shows the model of pastoral love to his 'shepherdess' Phebe. Unlike Silvius who worships pastoral love crying and suffering his beloved Phebe ignores her idolization and Silvius' praying. Touchstone is wise enough to not value love which, by his opinion, would only disturb real partnership between a woman and a man.

They are very educated, clever, reasonable, smart and progressive; too smart to be dependent on marriage and family duties; too clever to get caught by unreasonable and unexpected emotions. Here the Shakespeare's genius gave us a smile: do not deny mistakes until the very last moment of your life because there is always a possibility to make them. Celia's and Olivier's immediate love strike is a mistake, but they feel so happy!

Love is different like everyone is different in his emotions, thoughts, feelings, ideals and styles. There are many love pattern stories they remain just written or told patterns which nobody wants or is able to follow. Shakespeare's genius knew this like no one else.

There are four love couples in the play: Rosalind and Orlando, Silvius and Phebe, Touchstone and Audrey, Olivier and Celia. All couples belong to different social classes and originate from quite different family roots. Of course, their different origin, education, society and family environment have established different values of human nature and relationships.

Love Is The Answer (Sounds Trite But It's True)

In a world of pain and anguish, of seemingly endless problems and crises, love is so often forgotten or overlooked. In times of national crisis does anyone advocate love and forgiveness? And how often do you, when faced with interpersonal conflict, remember to keep love in your heart for the person you are facing?

This, of course, is not to say that love alone will solve all problems. It is to say that all approaches to any problem will always resolve quicker and easier and will lead toward healing when love is consciously present.

Again, this is not to say that love alone is a panacea, a magic pill that cures all. When there is an undercurrent of conscious loving energy, it is only to say that all methods and plans for positive change will always work better.

Violence does not stop violence; it only breeds more violence. Period. The scars born of violence do not go away; rather, they return and fester in kind.

It is fear that drives us to violence, as individuals and as nations. It takes courage to look beyond that fear and to consider that forgiveness and acceptance are necessary elements in any healthy relationship, whether it's between two people or between two cultures. Fear pushes away; love brings together.

Love dissipates violence. We need only look at leaders like Mahatma Gandhi and Martin Luther King, who both advocated nonviolent protest and loving the enemy, to see that armies may be conquered and systematic repression can be stopped with the use of long-term campaigns of kindness, forgiveness, and love.

It's all about love. It may seem trite to say, but its true. Love is where it's at.

Love is the one thing that is universally revered as being good for us all, and yet, with tragic consequence, it is so often ignored as a technique for change. Finding and keeping love in our hearts is the only way to consistently promote and effect healing, on both a personal and a national level.

What do you want to do in life? It goes easier with love in your heart.
Want better relationships, or a better family life? Make sure love is in your heart.
Trying to do a better job at work? Do it with love.
Trying to make a difference in anything? Start by finding love.
Is there pain in your life that needs mending? Love is what heals.
Are you lonely; still looking for that special someone? Love will find a way.

Love is the universal element that can be used in any situation where positive change is needed. It is not the only element, but is the element that can be used anytime, anywhere.

Love is the answer.
