Hi, welcome to Ruben Papian TV. This episode's name is "The Weaknesses of Love".
We know the power of love. We heard many times about it and we are absolutely sure that all we need is love; let's
say that it's true. But what kind of love do we need, what kind of love? Because in our imagination, if it's love it's
kind of an absolute thing. But let's try to analyze it - how much do you know about love? Love is a feeling that we
have. Sometimes it brings pleasure, sometimes it brings pain.
Still, why do we think that love is the most important and powerful feeling? Just because we like to love, that's all,
but do we know how to do that? Plus, do we need love? Everyone will say yes, of course, we need love. Each one
of us is looking for love. Are we looking for any kind of love that's on the road, or we would like to have a quality
in it, or with it? In order to recognize the quality of love we have to see how much do we know - what makes love a
quality love. Let's take for example jealousy. We know that jealousy is not a pleasurable feeling, actually it's kind of
destructive force is it? But anyone who has love wants to protect the subject of love - it wants to be sure that its
love deserves respect. Each one of us gives love and expects to be loved back. But first of all, where is the
priority? To give love or to get love? That's the dilemma. Generally, everyone, subconsciously would like to be loved.
So what we want is someone, to recognize us - so big, so important, so beautiful, so clever that there is love
towards us. It sounds like kind of an egocentrical feeling. It sounds something like: I would love to be loved, just
because I would like to be loved.
