A Love Attempt
by Morhaf Al AchkarPublish: May 23, 2021Book Overview
Love has been the ultimate answer of my life, both when life is good, of course, but especially during the difficult times. Love put a smile on my face. When I was confused, it was the only thing aside from being delusional that brought contradictions together. Because I have been loved, I wanted to train myself to love more. I wanted to learn the how-to of loving. I had an epiphany that led me to a conceptual clarity about the subject. I arrived at a definition of loving that made sense to me. The experience of discovering the meaning of love was itself an act of love. You will not find in the book a personal account of my love attempts. It’s not a summary of studies or philosophical positions on the subject of love, either. A Love Attempt is my reflections and perspective on the matter, meant to help me learn. In that sense, this book truly is for self-help. These are exercises I completed for my own learning, and I am simply sharing them with others. At the end of the book, I want you to say, “My next act is A Love Attempt.”
