"You will notice that what we are aiming at when we fall in love is a very strange paradox. The paradox consists of the fact that, when we fall in love, we are seeking to re-find all or some of the people to whom we were attached as children. On the other hand, we ask our beloved to correct all of the wrongs that these early parents or siblings inflicted upon us. So that love contains in it the contradiction: The attempt to return to the past and the attempt to undo the past."

That's trippy. I like how it was put. I do believe whether subconsiously or not we look for companions who have the same qualities as our close loved ones. I know I've watched this movie, but can't think of what it's in. Good quote!

The only problem I see with dissecting love in this way, and I as well as all of us have done so, is that it can only ultimately lead to the feeling that love is nothing but a futile mind game that we play with ourselves. The evolved personality might have less of these games but how many of us are that evolved? I say, keep that thought in the the back processor of your brain and continue to be open to love. After all it is glorious to be in love!!!!

great interpretation..think about it and look into yourself and see what this speaker is telling us..this was truly made for us to become aware of the paradox of love.. this truly is the crux of love when one doesn't no better. so many people repeat the worst of their childhood and then some of us seek to repeat the better of it with great partners..

future is to be created . we cannot repeat wat is wrong in the past so when we have own family and children we had to make sure the mistake will never be repeated.
