The First Love: And the Eternal Search for Love and Freedom

First Love discusses all the marginal aspects that are intrinsic to love and that sometimes contradict it: freedom, attachments, betrayal, independence, intimacy, violence (opposite of love), God, loss, adolescence conflict, separation. But most of all, it explains the origin of the love we carry within, the love we give and allow others to give us by looking at the mother-child relationship. Our fears of being left alone and our fears of trusting others.

The importance of freedom is well explored in this book in conjunction with the importance of maintaining intimate relationships. The importance of having an intimate relashionship with God and build a better self and a better world by loving others is well explored.

It argues that love has the same root. The eternal feeling of fusion, ecstasy, intimacy and trust we felt in the first moments of life in the arms of the one who welcomed us into the world are forever remembered, missed and desired, inducing us to look for a repetition of such moments throughout our entire life. The search for love is endless, from birth to death. It's our quest, it's our motive. Love is the omega. The beginning and the end. It's what motivates us all to fight for life, to conquer and to accomplish wonders in this world.
