Journal Entry #12

Write a paragraph explaining how these three kinds of love are different

There are three main kind of love which are agape, phileo, eros. Agape is one of Greek words that mean love. Agape mostly describe one's love towards a meal, towards a favorite activity, or towards spouse or family. Phileo is little more casual friendly or brotherly type of love. Philia means friendship in modern Greek, a dispassionate virtuous love. Eros on the other hand is passionate love, with sensual desire. The Modern Greek word "erotas" means "romantic love".
