need your help about a debate on Love ...
 
Hi everyone!
Are you having a nice Sunday?
A former student of mine asked my help and opinion  about an essay on this topic: �Why would life be meaningless without love?"

 He has to focus on the importance/ impact of love in the last stage of life, when we get older and retired. I think it deals with all kinds of love (friendship, romance, parental love...) but I must admit I can �t find a lot of (original ) things to say.

My student talked about "life being a mistake if not filled with love" and his arguments are a bit naive I think. For instance, he wrote: "   Once you are retired and becoming older, they [your children] just send back all the love you gave them, gratefully, by paying you visits and by taking care of you in return. Why? Because they love you and they want to keep you alive!"

What do you think, dear colleagues? Why can we say life would be meaningless without love?

I �m definitely not a philosopher, lol!

Thanks for your ideas and opinions!
