How should we live?

By Roman Krznaric

• Love
  • Eros, the fiery, passionate yet dangerous love
  • Philia, the platonic love between friends and comrades
  • Ludus, the playfulness that is found among new lovers and children
  • Pragma, the deep understanding that grows over time between partners
  • Agape, the selfless, charitable love for our fellow humans
  • Philautia, the love of the self, which could be either a positive acceptance or a detrimental self-obsession

Rather than relying on one partner to satisfy all these needs, the ancient Greeks believed that each role could be fullfilled by different individuals.
