SCs
“Love’or Perish,” by Smiley"
Blanton, M. D., is a book you
must read. If you have read it,
then you should read it again.
This is a tremendous book. It
points graphically to a truth ev
eryone must know if we are to
survive.
What an outstanding thing it is
that the one skill which is needed
the most in the world today is
taught so little.
Man’s great problems today
are in the field of personal rela
tionships. Industrial leaders and
executives tell us it is hut lack of
skill which handicaps sales and
production, but man’s lack of
ability to get on amicably with
his fellow?. -
We have so left the whole field
of love to fiction and entertain
ment that we have only a scant
knowledge of its true meaning.
Isn’t it strange that this most
important of all abilities is not
taught in our educational pro
gram? There are no courses on
love in elementary schools, high
schools or colleges. No wonder
we are at one another’s throats
throughout the world, and that
the home and marriage suffers.
Even the church which is sup
posed to be dedicated to teaching
the Great Textbook of love, the
Bible, says far too little about it.
It renders lip service but not life
service.
We think of love as some emo
tional experience which takes
place between a boy and girl and
leads thefn to get married. It Is
hard for us to get love up off the
level of sex.
There are at least four mean
ings of the word love: (1) Phy
sical love, (2) Love of Compan
ionship, (3) Love of parents for
children and children for pa
rents, (4) Spiritual love, the
great sacrificial love.
This veteran Christian psychia
trist draws upon his long prac
tice in case histories and shows
the tragic results of the neglect
of love and attention.
Look about you. See and listen
to what people do to get atten
tion. Try for yourself how a word
of appreciation to another gives
them a lift.
His last chapter on loveability
points to the fact that if we are
to be loved we must be loveable
He writes, “To be a loveable per
son in the* deepest sense, there,
fore, it follows that we must cre
ate an adult version of the good
qualities originally evolved in the
relationship between mother and
child.” He says that if we are to
be loveable we must learn to for
give, have faith in God, the uni
versal Source of power, and ac
cept our own aggressive im
pulses as a natural and normal
part of life and learn to direct
and control them.
Don’t miss this book. A
should be in every home.
