Can't Help Falling in Love
Wise men say only fools rush in/ but I can't help falling in love with you/ Shall I stay/ would it be a sin/If I can't help falling in love with you/ Like a river flows surely to the sea/ Darling so it goes/ some things are meant to be/ take my hand, take my whole life too/ for I can't help falling in love with you/ Like a river flows surely to the sea/ Darling so it goes/ some things are meant to be/ take my hand, take my whole life too/ for I can't help falling in love with you/ for I can't help falling in love with you –Elvis Presley (1)
Elvis may have been wise before his time, because research has found out that you cannot "help falling in love". (1) Many recording artists sing about love and how you cannot help the way you feel about someone when you are in love. Many researchers have done studies to find out what happens within the brain when you are in love and the results are interesting. Before one can understand the emotion of love, one must look at emotions themselves and what they do within the brain.
Emotions:
Emotions are defined as "stereotypic patterns of the body, which are triggered by the central nervous system in response to distinct external environmental situations or to the recollection of memories related to such situations." (2) In other words, this means the emotions are the way the nervous system reacts to different situations one might find themselves in. In order to survive, emotional responses must be present. (2) "Whenever an emotion is triggered, a network of brain regions (traditionally referred to as the limbic system) generates a pattern of stereotypic outputs, which ultimately induce a biological response of the body." (2) These stereotypic outputs are what humans call emotions. They are predictable responses to certain situations, for instance when a person is in a sad situation, they will cry and feel depressed or if a person is in a happy situation, they will laugh and smile. These responses are because "specific circuits of the emotional motor system have evolved to both generate this stereotypic emotional facial response, as well as instantaneously recognize it when it occurs in somebody else." (2) This holds true for people in love, when you see someone in love you can tell because their face tells all.
Claude Monet played an essential role in a development of Impressionism. He created many paintings by capturing powerful art from the world around him. He was born on November 14, 1840, in Paris, France. Later, his family moved to Le Havre, Normandy, France because of his father’s business. Claude Monet did drawings of the nature of Normandy and time spent along the beaches and noticing the nature. As a child, his father had always wanted him to go into the family grocery business, but he was interested in becoming an artist. He was known by people for his charcoal caricatures, this way he made money by selling them by the age of 15. Moreover, Claude went to take drawing lessons with a local artist, but his career in painting had not begun yet. He met artist Eugène Boudin, who became his teacher and taught him to use oil paints.

The emotional coping function is also known as the mammalian brain since it is common to all mammals whose babies are born live and completely dependent upon their mother for survival. Neuroscientists, refer to this small but essential brain function as the limbic system. As we will see, without our emotional brain mothers would not feel an instinctive need to nurture and feed their young. Nor would babies recognize and sense that their survival depends upon staying close to their mother for protection. This relatively small but important brain function serves a variety of coping and sensory purposes including our capacity for emotional attachment to others. When we talk about our "feelings" we are describing sensations and impulses arising from our emotional coping brain.
H.A. Tompkins is incorrect about Johnson because he was a bad president, no matter the time, or congressman in charge. Johnson let his personal vendetta against aristocrats and view of African Americans cloud his judgment. Also he did not work with moderates even though they desired to work with him, which would have given him more support in Congress. Plus he knowingly got himself impeached and did not care. A President should put the country before himself and the presidency also requires him to provide stability of the Government. Johnson could not do this; therefore he is a scorned President.
First of all, this line in A Midsummer Night’s Dream can mean that you have to work hard for love. Amorousness doesn’t just fall out of the sky and land right in your lap. It takes patience, determination, and hard work! Helena says, “If I have thanks, it is a dear expense/But herein mean I to enrich my pain/To have his sight thither, and back again.” (Act I, Scene i, line 252, page 36). This means that she is going through a ton of pain just to be with Demetrius, she is working exorbitantly hard for her affection. Love takes a huge amount of hard work because you must prove to that person that you really do love...
Impressionism is very pretty and complicated. It was from 1860 to 1910. Monet is the perfect Impressionist. Impressionism had its basic tenants. Their subject matter was the middle upper class, the city, and leisurely activities. They painted on en plein air which means they painted outdoors. They painted in snow, rain, storm, just in order to record directly the effects of light and atmosphere. They painted with strokes and touches of pure color by using a great deal of white and rarely black. They recorded the shifting play of light on the surface of objects and the effect light has on the eye without concern for the physicality of the object being painted. They were influenced by Japanese art and photography. One of Monet’s works is titled Water Lilies. The medium of this work is oil on canvas. Monet is an impressionist. He puts up pure color just describe the water. He said, when you go out paint, the impression of the scene not the exact scene.
Claude Monet made the art community address a revolutionary type of art called impressionism. In a style not previously before painted, impressionism captured a scene by using bright colors with lots of light and different shades to create the illusion of a glance. The traditional method of working in a studio was discarded and the impressionist artists carried any needed supplies with them into the countryside and painted the complete work outside. The manufacture of portable tin tubes of oil paints as well as the discovery of ways to produce a wider range of chemical pigments allowed artists to paint in a way unimaginable before this period in time (Stuckey 12). Monet and others, such as Pierre Auguste Renior, Paul Cezanne, Edgar Degas, Berthe Morisot, Edouard Manet, Camille Pissarro, and Alfred Sisley, took this style of art to a new level never seen before.
Every living person has the ability to love. It is the gift we are given to make this world a better place. Sadly, many people do not use this love to its full potential, and that leads to people in less fortunate situations suffering. That is not the type of person Radio is though. Love has always been the most important part of Radio’s roller coaster life, and even though he will never reach the mental ability an average person has, his ability to love will always remain much higher.
A situation that includes the immense mental contribution in pleasure or displeasure is termed as emotional. Emotion is an experience that happens when one is actively involving their cognition. Science has its definition of what feeling is thus making the term enormous with at least one meaning. Factors that contribute to emotions are things like mood, motivation, disposition, and personality. Some theories about feelings hold cognition to be a crucial factor. People who operate under emotions are termed as fewer thinkers, though the brain is usually at work (Brown, Stephanie, & Micheal, 17). Emotions are sophisticated in all cases. Components involved in emotions
Paris is vital to the impressionist movement as all the key impressionist artists mentioned above where born or lived in Paris. A significant artist who broke with tradition in his work was Manet. Paris born Manet is considered today as the father of impressionism. He began his art career studying under the academic painter Thomas Couture3 progressing to open his own studio in 1856 where he experimented with less c...
Emotional Arousal is defined as the arousal of strong emotions and emotions behavior. It is a physiological state that is entered during anytime of arousal, whether it be negative or positive. Arousal is a heightened sensation in our body and mind to make us more alert. Becoming aroused can come from stimulation which is more commonly found as emotions such as fear and anxiety or sexual and relaxation. Arousal starts in the brain, where the Reticular Activation system connects the primitive brain stem and the cortex and affects sleeping-waking transitions.
Love begets love. It is universally known that humans long for the feeling of love. However, what humans perceive as love might not be what love actually is. Many people believe love to be either physical or emotional, but it is never seen biological or physiological. Barbara Fredrickson, however, argues in her article “Selections from Love 2.0: How Our Supreme Emotion Affects Everything We Feel, Think, Do and Become” that people are looking at love with a closed view. Fredrickson explains how the system of love is divided in three sections, the brain, oxytocin, and the vagus nerve. Each plays a special part in making a human what they are emotionally and physically. All of these also play
Among these impressionists, is Claude Monet and he is perhaps the most commonly known of the Impressionists. Claude Monet is known for his mastery of natural light and painted several different times of the day in an attempt to capture changing conditions of the environment. Monet tended to paint simple impressions or subtle hints of his subjects, by using very soft brushstrokes and unmixed colors to create a more natural vibrating effect, as if nature itself was alive on the canvas. One technique that is identifiable from Monet is the “wet-on-wet” technique. Monet did not wait for paint to dry before applying layers upon layers. These layers helped produce softer edges and “blurred” boundaries that suggested a
Emotion is the “feeling” aspect of consciousness that includes physical, behavioral, and subjective (cognitive) elements. Emotion also contains three elements which are physical arousal, a certain behavior that can reveal outer feelings and inner feelings. One key part in the brain, the amygdala which is located within the limbic system on each side of the brain, plays a key role in emotional processing which causes emotions such as fear and pleasure to be involved with the human facial expressions.The common-sense theory of emotion states that an emotion is experienced first, leading to a physical reaction and then to a behavioral reaction.The James-Lange theory states that a stimulus creates a physiological response that then leads to the labeling of the emotion. The Cannon-Bard theory states that the physiological reaction and the emotion both use the thalamus to send sensory information to both the cortex of the brain and the organs of the sympathetic nervous system. The facial feedback hypothesis states that facial expressions provide feedback to the brain about the emotion being expressed on the face, increasing all the emotions. In Schachter and Singer’s cognitive arousal theory, also known as the two-factor theory, states both the physiological arousal and the actual arousal must occur before the emotion itself is experienced, based on cues from the environment. Lastly, in the cognitive-mediational theory
Claude Monet and Camile Pissarro were two of the founders of Impressionism, a movement that was largely influenced by its predecessor, Realism. Originally, Monet’s career in art started with him drawing caricatures of the townspeople of Le Havre. Then in 1857, he met en plein-air painter, Eugène Boudin. He urged a reluctant eighteen year old Monet to paint outdoors, encouraging him to “see the light.” Boudin’s teachings would later influence Monet as he met artists such as Pierre-Auguste Renoir and Alfred Sisley in 1862. Together they refined plein–air painting; they investigated the effects of light as they painted with broken colours and rapid brushstrokes across a canvas. In contrast was Pissarro as his earliest works were rendered in the more traditional Academic style-invisible brushstrokes, and realistic subject matter. Though in 1859, his works became looser and freer, greatly influenced by Camille Corot’s rural scenes and Gustave Courbet’s plein-air paintings.
I disagree and would argue that being in love and loving someone has two very different meanings. The word love is used too loosely. Loving someone and being in love with someone are two very different things. Although I am not a love master, being only 19 years old and in two serious relationships in my life, I have come to realize being in love is something special. I believe when you are in love it’s not a choice, that person is picked for you. You are addicted to them, you want all your friends and family to love them as much as you do, you are there when they succeed and there when they fail, you miss them every minute you are apart and you unconditionally love them, even when times get hard.
