Aristotle’s purpose of life is for one to acquire the good, the good being happiness. For human being’s happiness can be honour, wealth and success. There is one factor that Aristotle forgot to mention that every human being needs, which is “love”. I cannot speak for non-rational animals, but humans do need love.
We are surrounded by love every day, whether it is love from a friend, from a parent, a partner or even a neighbour, we can’t ignore the love we receive from others, and by accepting that love it means that we love back.
Psychology stresses that when a child does not receive love from a parent at a younger age, that child may be rebellious, unwilling to love, and may spend the rest of his or her life lonely in the near future, because they lack that parents love. So every child need a parents love.
Some people confuse love with intimacy. Intimacy is closure found from a friend, a partner or parent, love is an intense feeling or deep affection one encounters. Intimacy is one of the characteristic of love.
A person can live without intimacy. Intimacy it is in our mind, we think we need it, but the actual fact is that we want it, while love comes from our heart; we feel the need for it in our hearts. There are couples who love each other but are not intimate, and their happy with only just the love they have for each other.
Some feel intimacy is one of the reasons that contribute to people hating love. When you are intimate with someone, you get used to that closure and forget about love, and since intimacy is a want and a person wants different things every day, people end up wanting closure from different people. As the result couples break up, and friendships end, as the result we end up blaming it on love, forgetting that you are the one who rejected love by depending a lot on intimacy.
Despite all that intimacy drama we still feel the need for love. We have witness in romantic movies how people, fight, and torture themselves because of love, because the void of love in our hearts cannot be ignored. Yes you may have honour success and wealth, but love is the only thing that completes a human being.
Mother Teresa once said, "There is more hunger for love and appreciation in this world than for bread."
