Framing Love

I found a great place to start.  Any point of entry to the problem domain will do.  I like this one: 
Simple Words: Thinking About What Really Matters in Life by Adin Steinsaltz

 There are extensive portions of the book here.

You can see that the link lands on the page that contained my google search term "Object Oriented Love"  I had expected to find something written by a total object oriented nerd that writes their dreams in code using object oriented language and lives their life in a total world where everything is as an oriented design structure from the top down to the bottom and up again to validate itself.

Not many living  purely in that world but we all do to some extent so it is not so hard to conceive.  It is just necessary to know and apply the object oriented language of that world.  Learning a new language is hard but when the language encapsulates highly defined structure to organize structure then when you start to "think" in an an object oriented language everything fits neatly, no matter what is being thought about.

There is a semantic ambiguity problem in the term "Object Oriented Love" as I have used it.  Maybe a subtle one but clarifying the subtleties is a disambiguation.  Maybe explained by the story of the fish in the "Simple Words" link.  As I apply Object Orientation it is the subject methodology view and approach to  Love, not the Object of Love in a Subject/Object structure.

I have always used Object Oriented as the term of choice to define the methodology.  "Subject Oriented" would be better and is in fact used by Wikipedia here.  Is that simply a less ambiguous philosophical way of looking at the same concept that happens to be popularly known as "Object Oriented"

Gotta Frame it right to get it right!

Maybe "Subject Oriented" is really "Object Oriented version 2.0"

I should take this view back to Money and see if the problem domain takes on a different aspect.

Aspect Oriented Design and Programming?

Time to go somewhere else and think about other things!
