Inspiring storyteller, writer and speaker, Dr. Nina Kelly talks about different kinds of love swirling about in the air we breathe and turns her attention to Agape, the love of humanity.

New Orleans, LA – February 13, 2020 – Dr. Nina M. Kelly, Inspirational Storyteller, Coach, Author and Co-Author of The Big Question with Larry King, and Success Mastery and Success Breakthroughs with Jack Canfield, recently posted a new blog on her website entitled, “Agape Is In The Air,” in which Dr. Kelly talks about six different words for six different kinds of love.

“It’s February,” states Dr. Kelly. She asks, “Can you feel the shift that has occurred as people begin to think about romantic love?” She continues adding, “Commercials and ads for long-stemmed red roses, chocolates, wines, lingerie and romantic restaurants flood the airwaves. This is the time lovers are planning how they are going to demonstrate to their loved one just how much they are loved on St. Valentine’s Day.”

Dr. Kelly writes, “I am all for romantic love, however, there is another more enduring kind of love that I would like to draw your attention to. The Greeks call it Agape, which means the love for everyone, for all of humanity.”

According to Dr. Kelly, “The Greeks actually have six different words for different kinds of love. Of course,” she says, “we all know about Eros, or sexual passion named after the Greek god of fertility. Next is Philia or the love among good friends. Ludus is playful love, while Pragma is the name for longstanding love and Philautia is the love of the self.”
