I think the real challenge is to get the two loves working together. I don't find this easy. Thanks for taking the time to comment. Evan Hi Barbara,

Yours may be the right interpretation – I’m not sure.

I think the real challenge is to get the two loves working together. I don’t find this easy.

One of those messages that stuck. I had a different interpretation of what the lyrics meant when it was first popular. That was, if I did not have someone that I genuinely felt love for, I should just love the person that was available. Kind of, whether I wanted to or not. Or creating a situation to have love, then settling for the creation of some "love", rather than a void of love. Or maybe even an attempt at altuistic, love of all. I realize getting stuck in these messages could be very influential. And I think it has. You had a good way to look at it. Now that you say this, I'm not sure I ever appreciated or experienced two kinds of love working hand in hand or as a balance to one another. Barbara Evan,

I do think we move from one to the other and mix them over time. Thanks for taking the time to comment. Thanks DrSteve.

I like the 4-pronged analysis - Love 1 (good or bad) Love 2 (good or bad). Or two continua, perhaps. This makes for the possibility of one having mixed combinations of these at any one time (and changing over time?). Again, nicely done!
