[Make Love, Not War] or [Spread Love, Not War]

Curiously, while I was reviewing some interesting posts in search of challenges, I found one that recommended using the following tag: #spreadlovenotwar. Usually I rarely stop to analyze them, I also know that many of these are composed and convey an idea or message, however, for some reason we do not stop to think about why you are.

#spreadlovenotwar is a simple anagram, if we separate it in its words it says: spread love not war. In the first instance, I thought, a phrase originated in the hippies movement of the 60s, about 60 years have passed. Wow, I did a little search on the internet, the first thing I found was a song by an African-American hip hop group I didn't know, Mobb Deep. I listened to it and I didn't like it much, but there is music for all tastes. I also found a song with a variant of the phrase, and this one is from the 60s: Make love, not war, by Jonh Lennon. The ex-Beatles song had a simple and basic message, very different from the long message transmitted by the hip hop group.

If someone asked me to choose between both songs, without hesitation I would choose Lennon's, not because it is a production of a music icon, no! In fact, there are some things about Lennon that I don't like about him, but in this particular, he with a few words said a lot, giving himself the luxury of repeating them several times, as if to emphasize his meaning.

I guess the spirit of the tag points to the message of achieving a better world in which, let's stop fighting and to achieve it, we must make love. One moment, I think it is necessary to make a clarification, make love in its highest expression, that is, fraternal love among all human beings, and why not! Extensive to the rest of the species. In this sense, [spread love, not war] is superior to [make love, not war] don't believe!

If this is the meaning of the tag, of course I join in search and incidentally, I also invite you to join.

Sort:  

In all reality, love can not be made, it already exists. It is a matter of spreading it and helping it grow and be recognized by embracing it and accepting that it does exist. I'd actually be more inclined to play the Mobb Deep LOL
