In the euthyphro dialogue socrates and the sophist euthyphro discuss the nature of piety and, in general, right action. Euthyphro spoke of arresting his father and socrates rebutted against why he was arresting his father. Spoke of how to be philosophical and how questioning all may allow you to get to the bottom of every argument. Love relative to human nature is to be back with the one who we were once connected to.

After we have found all of that beautiful, we see all things as beautiful.
