Excerpt
Diana Ross proclaims, "What the world needs now, is love, sweet love." This is undoubtedly true, but the question still remains as to how to fmd this love. Maybe that approach is the problem. Humans instinctively pursues love for themselves, rather than demonstrate their love to others. This is possibly due to the fact that loving others is often difficult. Martin Luther King Jr. outlines his view on how to love the unlovable in his "Pilgrimage to Nonviolence." Although King was addressing how to love one's enemy, his steps still illustrate an effective approach to love. The relationship between Norman and Paul in A River Runs Through It, by Norman Maclean, demonstrates King's ideas on love.
