When thinking of love, many may refer to that famous line made famous by the movie Moulin Rouge, "The greatest thing you will ever learn, is to love and be loved in return." But is it? Is that it? What exactly constitutes as love? What does it mean to be loved? Is true love meant to be selfless or is love selfish? These are the questions that open up the gateway to an exploration of love from a philosophical perspective in this week's podcast episode. Drawing from the wisdom of ancient philosophers like Plato and Aristotle, we examine notions of love as a force that brings about personal growth and connection between individuals.In our quest for understanding, we challenge listeners to contemplate their own experiences with love and to critically examine their preconceptions. By delving into the philosophical exploration of love, we seek to unravel its mysteries and shed light on this intricate, essential, and often precarious endeavor that humanity holds in such high regard.We are joined by Leopold Ajami, a creative by nature and philosopher by degree. Leopold is a renowned public speaker and founder of the Novel Philosophy Academy, a philosophy driven academy for creative thinkers. He is also the co-host of a podcast show called Ideas on Trial designed to confront "undisputed, yet culturally accepted" ideas that aren't being questioned.
