Praise Love…?
The theme of the Plato’s symposium was to "praise Love".
In that work there is one of the most descriptions of Love (Eros) by Socrates. http://etext.library.adelaide.edu.au/p/plato/p71sy/symposium.html
I ask you Philosophers of Yahoo thousands of years later to do the same thing. Grab a glass of wine and find the most beautiful reasons why we should praise Love.
I was quite impressed by the answers in my other questions so I’m really looking forward to your answers.

Here’s a poem I wrote a few years ago that praises erotic love:
My Gaze
There is nothing to think about.
Your arms are bare.
Slip out of your blue jeans
so that your legs too
can feel the air.
I want to see you
clothed only in shadow and light.
I want to explore the grace of
your moments and gestures,
the sensations of your body’s textures,
to be the hero of
your erotic adventures.
And when I’ve kissed you
and pinched you,
stroked you and fingered you,
licked you and bit you
and felt you till
you are ready for me
as the sky is for a tree,
then I’ll roar as I enter you
and together we’ll ride
on the neck of a dragon
or the back of a dolphin
through living moist caverns,
through tunnels of loving,
with your warm breath on my lips,
with heat where we touch
with my hand on your belly,
with our nerve endings ablaze.
Can you feel all this
when I give you my gaze?
