Funny Holidays - Love Conquers All Day

The Latin expression Omnia vincit amor et nos cedamus amori comes from the pen of the ancient Roman poet Publius Virgil Maron. A phrase from a poem he wrote in the “bucolics” genre is translated as “Love conquers everything, and we submit to love.” This popular expression is found in the works of D. Chaucer, W. Thackeray, F. Stendhal, and other poets and writers. It is difficult to disagree with the wisdom and depth of knowledge of life contained in Virgil’s statement. June 3 is celebrated as Love Conquers All Day. The touching Love Conquers All Day encourages people to show their feelings to those they care about most. It is customary to celebrate the holiday of joy and warmth with friends and family members - with everyone you care for and cherish. Love gives a person the ability to accept any challenge in life and to endure the trials sent by fate. Therefore, in honor of the holiday, do not skimp on displays of tenderness, sincere interest in your partner and emotional affection. Love is a sublime feeling, sung millions of times in poetry and prose, cinema and music, which means not only passion and desire, but also disposition and acceptance of another person. Eros, philia, storge, ludus, mania, pragma, agape, philautia... Ancient Greek philosophers identified so many types of love. Each of them had a special emotional coloring and tonality. Thus, philia was the name given to the love of brothers and sisters, the relationship between children and parents; storge meant tenderness, warm partnerships based more on friendship than passion. One of the strongest feelings in terms of emotional intensity gives a person confidence and makes him unbending under the weight of the problems that have fallen on him. Love conquers evil and fear, dispelling it like a ray of sunshine illuminates the darkness. She is capable of defeating a fatal disease and overcoming any obstacles encountered on the way to a person dear to her heart. The wisdom of Virgil's statement is confirmed in the collisions of "Romeo and Juliet", "Orpheus and Eurydice", "Tristan and Isolde", the plots of "Gone with the Wind" and "Titanic". Love Conquers All Day is a celebration of a pure and beautiful feeling, the happiness of which nature has generously rewarded a person. Love, according to G. Heine, “the most sublime and victorious of all passions,” has many faces. It is felt towards a child, parents, husband and wife, Motherland, nature, art... The Day “Love Conquers All” encourages us to think about the power of feeling that sometimes gives a person an unbending will and self-confidence.
