Document Summary

In reference to the lad and the princess, kierkegaard"s advice is to move on, based on the idea that loving without being loved back is a waste of time. There is someone out there who will gladly be the receiver and the receptor of love. The lad is specifically in love with her not the idea of love. He would rather be alone with this impossible love then to pretend to love. In his eyes, he believes that happiness will only be attained through being with her. He concentrates all of his substance of his life into one single desire. The lad must take his love and give it onto the heavens. As years go by, his heart is complete because he had accepted that he could never get her. He was able to transcend the love of isaac beyond the physical being that is isaac.
