Love

I am in possession of an overflow of thoughts these days. This dripped out this AM:

LOVE: Without demonstration, it lies dormant as an abstract word from the dictionary, meaningless without substance. It fills our heart with others and empties our mind of self. Love teaches balance. We are willing to be hurt, but not willing to be destroyed. 

Love equips us with its truth. A distinct pattern forms, helping us to make decisions based on what we know. Predictions are useless.

Love gives power. The power to love strangers and the ability to love enemies. It thrives on the reciprocity of positive action. Love propels us forward and takes us back to moments that encourage felicity, and others that incapacitate. With it we are everything, and without it we are small.
