Olivia Larson Olivia Larson (Oct 22 2019 1:53AM) : I believe that love can be fascinating, timeless, and complex. However, it can also be devastating and false. more

I think love is a human emotion that all people deserve to feel at some point in their life. It can be wonderful and unlike anything else when you’re with the right person. On the other hand, if you are with the wrong person you can be badly hurt. Love can be complicated, but can also be very much worth it.

Master Soph Boysen Master Soph Boysen (Oct 22 2019 2:11AM) : What more

I agree with the part about it being devastating and false because boi, my life is full of devastating love. However, I don’t think love is timeless, even if we’re talking about loving ourselves. I don’t love myself all the time and sure don’t love other people all the time.

Ms. Epifania Taylor Ms. Epifania Taylor (Oct 22 2019 2:32AM) : Self love more

What a fantastic point. Sometimes we only think about romantic love and how we love another person, but we don’t consider how important it is to love ourselves.

Jenny Chang Jenny Chang (Oct 22 2019 2:11AM) : I disagree. more

I disagree that love could be devastating and false. Love is something that people could rebuild from even if it’s broken. It’s complicated but there would still be love out there for any one.

Master Soph Boysen Master Soph Boysen (Oct 22 2019 1:59AM) : Love is fascinating but it feels so fleeting. more

Due to the fact that I haven’t really experienced love yet (besides the love parents give their children), I find love to be fleeting or maybe even non-existent. Love is fascinating because I have never shared it with someone else so hearing about it from others fascinates me. It amazes me how someone can love another person and trust the other person to feel the same.

Jenny Chang Jenny Chang (Oct 22 2019 2:00AM) : Love is a wonderful thing. more

Love is fascinating, timeless and complex because it’s the only thing that helps others to connect with each other. It seems complicated because it’s hard for people to express their feeling with others. There’s different ways of expressing love and that’s why it’s timeless. Love is a wonderful thing that everyone should appreciate and give.

student Yu hong Lin student Yu hong Lin (Oct 22 2019 2:06AM) : Agree more

Love is one of the strongest relationship between people. Some people say that on other ways hate, which is always a powerful emotion, is another expression of love sometimes.

Ms. Epifania Taylor Ms. Epifania Taylor (Oct 22 2019 2:36AM) : Insightful more

Wow. I’ve heard this too. I like to think of antipathy as the opposite of love. When you hate a person, you still feel something for them, but when you have antipathy, you feel nothing. I think that’s more devastating and final than hate.

student Yu hong Lin student Yu hong Lin (Oct 22 2019 2:00AM) : Agree that love is fascinating, timeless and complex. more

I agree that love is fascinating, timeless, and complex at the same time. However, I believe that most people love themselves the most. Loving someone else could be easily changed or destroyed, so it’s fascinatng and complex. Only loving yourself can be timeless.

Ms. Epifania Taylor Ms. Epifania Taylor (Oct 22 2019 2:00AM) : Love is for fools!!!! more

I think love is just a lie we tell to ourselves to justify allowing others to take advantage of and mistreat us. Many victims of abuse often explain it away or stay in bad situations because they ‘love’ the person. I’m not here to be anybody’s sucker!

Dr Jo Shua Dr Jo Shua (Oct 22 2019 2:00AM) : I agree that love is fascinating, timeless, and complex. more

I agree because love is a fascinating emotion. Sometimes we don’t even realize we love someone but we are actually loving someone. Also, love is often really complex, it is entangled between two people. Love manipulate people, let one person to think about his/her lovers whole time.

max ong max ong (Oct 22 2019 2:11AM) : I strongly agree with that!!! more

Love is a thing that you can’t control and you never knows when’s going to happen. Sometimes love is a thing that you don’t even know that it’s happening on you.
Love is a thing that you can’t imagine! You never know if you never try it.(personal opinion)

Soo-Rim Seo Soo-Rim Seo (Oct 22 2019 2:00AM) : I disagree that love is timeless. more

The interesting study found that in most couples, love chemical stops release after 900 days. Their hearts no longer beat to each other. Their romantic days are gone. Love is like a flower. Flower cannot bloom forever; it will wither someday.

Ms. Epifania Taylor Ms. Epifania Taylor (Oct 22 2019 2:05AM) : FANTASTIC!!! more

I completely agree. I love how you look at love as a chemical response. Once that fades, it’s time for the other person to hit the door!

Olivia Larson Olivia Larson (Oct 22 2019 2:06AM) : Love can be timeless because there are couples who are married their entire lives and are still hopelessly in love. more

I have never read this study before, but perhaps there were other variables at play. There are couples who have been together for whole lifetimes and are still in love. I think we should have more hope in human emotion and connection.

Mr. Denmark Jensen Mr. Denmark Jensen (Oct 22 2019 2:03AM) : Love is certainly fascinating, timeless, and complex. more

There are many events throughout history in which present these facts. Even in old times, authors and philosophers have been fascinated by love. Most old classic writings such as “Romeo and Juliet” display this fascination of love. They also display the complexity of love. In “Romeo and Juliet” there are many complications to the couple’s love. In the end of this tragic story the timelessness of love is demonstrated. Both lovers chose death over life without love which ends in their timeless consequence.

준석 서 준석 서 (Oct 22 2019 2:04AM) : I agree with the statement that love is fascinating, timeless, and complex. more

All human beings have rights to feel and enjoy the special emotion, love. Love can be considered as a way that help people to enjoy thier lives. The feeling of love has been developed by the ancestors and passed to the next generation. Their efforts has been accumulated and has developed the quality of interaction with other people. Now the love is already prevailed throughout the human being, helping us to maintain our relationship with other people.

It can make people heartbreak, and also give people happiness. If you are in love with someone, you will always feel happy when you think about your boyfriend/girlfriend. If you break up with your boyfriend/girlfriend, you will feel you lost everything and immersed in pain

max ong max ong (Oct 22 2019 2:05AM) : I believe that love is fascinating and complicated. more

Love is a human emotional that everybody has it. In my way, love is a two side sword. It could gives you a lot of happiness, it also could harm you really bad. It’s fascinating that when people fall in love, they are enjoying the relationship between you and her. It makes them happy. It’s complicated because they are so many things that happen in the life.

Dr. James Kim Dr. James Kim (Oct 22 2019 2:08AM) : Love is fascinating and complex but not timeless. more

I agree with the claim that love is fascinating and complex, but I do not believe that love lasts forever. Love is a very fascinating feeling. It can give someone or something value even to the extent of it being priceless. I also believe that love is complex since there are very powerful energy involved in the feeling love and the human body. Many of these “powerful energy” is still unexplained by science. However, I do not believe that love lasts forever. This is because “several studies have indicated that, intense love you feel for someone at the beginning of the relationship, lasts no more than 2 or 3 years. And no more than 7 years at most.” http://www.relationshippsychology.com/get-over/how-long-does-love-last

Love is more than feeling physical attraction to someone.
Love is a emotional attachment to somebody.
It’s just a four letter word
but you know it’s something more
Love is like life not always fair.
Love is a tape, concealing and healing
Love is a vape, risky and thrilling

Esther Lee Esther Lee (Oct 22 2019 2:11AM) : I agree that love is fascinating, timeless, and complex. more

Love is the sole human emotion which can save lives and make the world beautiful again. Also, loving somebody means that you are ready to sacrifice your time, money, or even yourself for your lovers. Think of your parents or God (if you are a churchgoer). They are the only ones who love you without any conditions or expectations.

Ye Eun Hong Ye Eun Hong (Oct 22 2019 2:29AM) : I agree that love is fascinating, timeless, and complex. more

Even though love can be hurtful, it is a fascinating thing. People cure and care about each others by loving. Loving can help humans go through the harsh and complicated world.

Hai Jin Shin Hai Jin Shin (Oct 22 2019 11:08AM) : I agree that love is fascinating, timeless, and complex. more

Love is one of the most powerful feelings that people possess. It is fascinating because love can cure and change people. However, love is complicated since it is a thing that needs a lot of work to overcome it.

Aria Li Aria Li (Oct 22 2019 11:11AM) : I believe that love is fascinating and complex. more

I think love is diverse, and the love that exists in each relationship is different. Among friends, love can be your unconditional support behind them. Between family members, love can be something you can do for them unconditionally. Among couples, love can be peace of mind, trust each other.

Ms. Epifania Taylor Ms. Epifania Taylor (Oct 22 2019 1:19AM) : Power will inevitably corrupt those who seek it. more

Olivia Larson Olivia Larson (Oct 22 2019 1:57AM) : I believe there is a point where a person can acquire too much power and it can change them. more

Having power does not corrupt you, but once you have too much and use that power to manipulate others it is harmful. In history people with too much power have been known to go crazy with it. By having so much control to exert over every situation you begin to lose touch with reality.

Many people that started with a good intention lose their mind during their way seeking for power. Ironically, they seek power to fight against the corrupt ones but they become those they want to fight eventually.

student Yu hong Lin student Yu hong Lin (Oct 22 2019 2:02AM) : Agree. more

Those that think that they will not become corrupt after they have power most likely never had power. Only the ones that had power have the right to say that this statement is wrong. From history, it is clearly proven that all form of government eventually goes toward corrupt.

Soo-Rim Seo Soo-Rim Seo (Oct 22 2019 9:17AM) : I agree more

Recently, Korean government, too. Before election, President Moon promised to make better society. After he got power, he was involved in corruptions. The attitudes of those who seek power immediately change when they get it.

Master Soph Boysen Master Soph Boysen (Oct 22 2019 2:07AM) : People love power. more

I agree that power inevitably corrupts people. When people acquire too much power, it gives them kind of a high, also known as being on a power trip. This is a form of corruption and for some people, they become corrupted as soon as they are given power. It really depends on the individual in how long it takes for them to become corrupted.

Jenny Chang Jenny Chang (Oct 22 2019 2:08AM) : Power will naturally destroy a person who seeks it. more

Power would never be balanced between a society. Power is something that everyone wants and there’s always a person who’s going to fight for it. People will always going to seek it which they would eventually destroy themselves from it.

Oct 22
Dr Jo Shua Dr Jo Shua (Oct 22 2019 2:08AM) : I agree with the idea that power will inevitably corrupt those who seek it. more

For example, it the super-hero movie, the heroes are the ones who used their own power for the good of the community. However, villains are the ones who used their super-power for their own goods, tend to harm the community and people. As we can see from this example, we can understand that by who is using what kind of power, specific person can either be a villain or super-hero.

Oct 22
Olivia Larson Olivia Larson (Oct 22 2019 2:15AM) : I agree with you. more

Your example with heroes and villains was very relevant. I agree that it is how people use the power they achieve that decide who they are. Corruption only comes if you willingly accept it.

Oct 22
Ye Eun Hong Ye Eun Hong (Oct 22 2019 2:09AM) : I agree that power will inevitably corrupt those who seek it. more

Power corrupts people by making them be eager to gain more and more power until they are not able to control themselves. Because poeple are weak human-beings, they are more likely to be shifted by the taste of power. So the uncontrollable greed in human-beings would lead to corruption.

Oct 22
Hai Jin Shin Hai Jin Shin (Oct 22 2019 2:11AM) : I believe that power will inevitably corrupt those who seek it. more

Seeking power would inevitably lead to the corruption, because man naturally wants more as he gets more. Throughout history, there are countless examples of power eventually leading to corruption. Desire is an inherent attribute that cannot be controlled by people.

Ye Eun Hong Ye Eun Hong (Oct 22 2019 10:56AM) : I agree with you. more

Along with the corruption of historical figures due to their desire of power, people nowadays long for power everyday, which make themselves uncontrollable, leading toward corruption.

Oct 22
Soo-Rim Seo Soo-Rim Seo (Oct 22 2019 2:25AM) : I agree that power will inevitably corrupt those who seek it. more

People who seek power are usually greedy and do anything to get power.As soon as they use inappropriate ways to seek it, they are corrupted. It is supported by Korean police; when they can get money and power, they protect criminals.

Oct 22
Dr. James Kim Dr. James Kim (Oct 22 2019 4:53AM) : I agree that Power might corrupt those who seek it, but I believe it is evitable. more

“Power” is a concept that have been existing for a long time. The people who had power survived and flourished, the people who survived and flourished had power. Today, we live in a capitalist society where “Power” is mostly gained from fame and money. Seeking power may not be bad because everybody wants to be successful; however, when your greed overwhelms your conscience, it will ultimately corrupt you. Thus, it is imporant to manage your greediness to prevent corruption.

Hunter Kang Hunter Kang (Oct 22 2019 9:16PM) : Everyone has their own container that can hold power more

How much power one can hold depends on who the power is given to. For example president Trump with his unlimited power needs others to suppress his authority. On the other hand, people like Gandhi or Martin Luther King Jr continued to use their expanding powers to promote peace and justice.

Esther Lee Esther Lee (Oct 22 2019 11:39PM) : I agree that power will inevitably corrupt those who seek it. more

It is natural for a human to seek power to impose his free will. However, excessive desire for seeking power can lead to dictatorship, devastating people’s life as well as the nation’s economy. Power is like a drug or gambling; once you taste the sweetness of power, you can no longer escape from it.
