...as that epyphany opens a new window for him to look both inside himself and into the woman he now has discovered how he loves, thus making his love greater, not lesser. Now she has shared her secret with him, they can become closer to each other, once that wall has fallen down...Greek word for that higher kind of love is "Agap�", which has no exact equivalent in today�s languages, something like "love beyond passion" being the closest...
Strange thing, love, always going against the rules of economy, as the more you share it, the more you have. And how wise old Greeks were, when they conceived the ones in love as not acting on their own, but possessed by a god who drove them beyond reason (did you know what the word "enthusiasm" means? "Driven by (a) god", no less...)

I see it. ( maybe it is that YOU never has suffered ( enough ) because of love, he-he..) Anyway I can feel is suffering because he KNOWS that her love to him never will ever reach this high again. Of course it makes his love greater, as you always want what you can not got....Love bejond passion is just an excuse for putting you into a dormant state of mind.
Love is not in small pieces. It is all or nothing...
Passion.
The rest is like a cold expresso.
Demon or God, who knows for sure?
Salut Bernardo, and think, without love life is not worth....
