I see this theme repeated in philosophy a lot -- "prepare" to love. What does that mean to you?
Although Kierkegaard tends to be pretty on-point, I'm not sure about the idea of applying rules to what it means to be in love. What do you think?

What do you think? Does your affection tend to grow with time, or does it become routine?

#philosophy #ReasonAboveRitual #PhilosophyForRealLife #ReligionIsObsolete
I find this one very interesting. Do you agree that real love can't be passive?

#philosophy #ReasonAboveRitual #PhilosophyForRealLife #ReligionIsObsolete
Some philosophers claim that love requires patience, and others claim that true love is marked by impatience. Which one do you think is more accurate in the real world?

Here's a sweet and simple one to end a busy week. What do you think? Is this simplified description of love inspiring or does it frustrate you?

#philosophy #ReasonAboveRitual #PhilosophyForRealLife #ReligionIsObsolete
I just like this one to end a hectic week. Today is my sweetheart's birthday, and it's safe to say that we've both been transformed.

Is this true? Is one side of a love affair always more cautious than the other?

Here's a slightly different spin on the old "confidence is attractive" axiom. What do you think? Is it realistically possible to hunt for love, or is it enough to be receptive and live with an open heart?

#philosophy #ReasonAboveRitual #PhilosophyForRealLife #ReligionIsObsolete
Here's a spicy one that rejects the "everyone deserves love regardless of personal quality" axiom that's become a modern touchstone. What do you think?

#philosophy #ReasonAboveRitual #PhilosophyForRealLife #ReligionIsObsolete
What do you think of this? Is a quiet soul required to know what we really want? Does chaos get in the way?

I think this is an interesting analogy, because fruit from a tree is never guaranteed. Agree or disagree?

#philosophy #ReasonAboveRitual #PhilosophyForRealLife #ReligionIsObsolete
Do you think patience is a critical component of real love?

#philosophy #ReasonAboveRitual #PhilosophyForRealLife #ReligionIsObsolete
This is very romantic, but do you think it's realistic? Should we really expect this level of connection between two separate thinking beings?

Aurelius has been dead for most of 2,000 years, yet his words are just as relevant today (if not moreso). This is why I love philosophy!

Another interesting turn of phrase: "what" you would be rather than the more traditional "who" you would be. To me, that's an important distinction. Agree or disagree?

#philosophy #ReasonAboveRitual #WhyYouFeelLost #ReligionIsObsolete
So, you believe that it happens in stages? Interesting.
This is one of those quotes that gets deeper after a couple reads.

#philosophy #ReasonAboveRitual #WhyYouFeelLost #ReligionIsObsolete
An interesting detail here is the word "content" versus "happy." Do you think the subtle change makes a significant difference in the overall message?

#philosophy #ReasonAboveRitual #WhyYouFeelLost #ReligionIsObsolete
A new twist on ye olde "accept what you cannot change" angle. Do you think this makes the mentality more powerful?

#philosophy #ReasonAboveRitual #WhyYouFeelLost #ReligionIsObsolete
I think about this one when I'm feeling out of sorts. Do you have any slogans that you tend to repeat in those cases?

#philosophy #ReasonAboveRitual #PhilosophyForRealLife #ReligionIsObsolete
This one sounds nice, but it also sounds somewhat oversimplified to me. What do you think?
