Love is essential for human existence and fulfillment from "summary" of The Art of Loving by Erich Fromm

Love is the answer to the problem of human existence. It is not a mere sentiment or a feeling that comes and goes, but a practice that requires effort and discipline. Love is the only force that can bring true fulfillment and meaning to our lives. Without love, we are incomplete and lost. In our modern society, we often confuse love with possession or attachment. We see love as a means to satisfy our own needs and desires, rather than as a way to connect with others and the world around us. This self-centered view of love only leads to disappointment and suffering. True love, on the other hand, is a selfless act of giving and sharing. It is about caring for others and seeking their well-being above our own. Love requires us to open ourselves up to vulnerability and to be willing to take risks. It is a leap of faith that allows us to transcend our individual egos and connect with the greater whole. Through love, we can experience a sense of unity with others and with the world. Love allows us to see beyond the superficial differences that divide us and to recognize our shared humanity. It is through love that we can find a sense of purpose and belonging in this chaotic and uncertain world.
  1. Love is the foundation of our existence. It is what gives our lives meaning and significance. Without love, we are like ships adrift at sea, without direction or purpose. Love is the anchor that keeps us grounded and allows us to navigate the complexities of life. It is through love that we can find true fulfillment and happiness.
