Writer's Workshop 05 || What Do You Really Know About Love

 


Hey Luvs, Today's writing workshop was really needed and very fun. So, what did we discuss ? We talked about love ... wait ! Not like generic love, but what it really means to love ! Here are a few snippets of what we discussed, make sure to go to my Instagram for the IGTV episode.

We are a society that does not know love. 

Prompt 1:
Define love.

Our definition of love, is it really love?

If you were to take your definition of love and dissect it, is it surface level, or is it all encompassing. Would it be practical enough for society to use and put into practice.
When we talk about love do we forget to include all forms and ways of it. 
These forms that exist as intimacy's between partners, sibling love, familial love, the love we hold for friends, and material things.


We can't heal if we do not know, understand, and practice love.

Today we are going to analyze chapter one of Bell Hooks , "All About Love" to see if our definitions of love stand up to the test of what she defines as what love is really about.
What does it look like ? What does is consist of? What is it not ?

Prompt 2:
Do your agree with Bell Hooks ?
Is your definition of love still the same?
How has it changed, if at all? 

I am really looking forward to knowing your thoughts,
let me know in the comments below.
As always I hope this encourage you to dig into yourself a little deeper.

With Love,
Alexus Fay

Love is an Act of Will, both an Intention and a Action.
... extending ones self for the purpose of nurturing one's own growth or another's.
