One cannot steal Love; therefore Love has not been stolen. Our minds have been hijacked and we’re holding the box-cutter to our own throats. One might choose to demolish the flesh and bone of children, but one cannot steal the Love that is born in them. It isn't for sale and it isn't for the taking. One can also choose to keep all of the things that they have allowed another to pile on top of the Love born inside of them and then scream about their love for some delusional freedom that has been and continues to be offered to only some of the people some of the time, but not all of the people all of the time.
We are not free. It has been a very long time in coming, this idea of freedom, this delusion of liberation from the shackles of fear, and it has arrived without us! We are allowing fear to conquer our will. It has arrived before man has given himself over to Love, the only thing that will save him from himself, from his ideas, from his thoughts, from his ego. Love, which is free, arrived long before man had thought, long before man decided he owned her, long before he decided it was his to conquer. The thought is not enough, the signs are not enough, the marches are not enough if we cannot see beyond our own desires, our own inability to change, our own failure, our own sightlessness when we argue for or against our own inept words, our own hopeless ideas and our own clumsy and corrupted ideas of forgiveness.
If we choose to love what we love, we are missing out on the rest of Love. Love isn't divisible. Love is its own. It is all. Love is Love and it never changes. It is we who change. We change to fit our own self interests despite our braying to the contrary. We can either choose to stop this idea that any one of us knows more than the next or we can wholly fail.
If our words are to reflect Love then they must come from Love which knows no sides, no philosophy, no religion, no race, color or creed! Let us imagine ourselves bringing nothing to the table but Love! Love must rule any movement in order to move the world; the 100%...
"If we choose to love what we love, we are missing out on the rest of love."
ReplyDeleteThis does not make sense. Nobody chooses love. It's not a choice, it's an emotion felt, not by choice.......it should be..."when we love what and who we love, we embrace also the rest of love". But I must add to that, What you love and who you love has a responsibility to not end that love, based on the selfish notion that they think "they know what's right". Nobody knows everything, and sometimes when you make a decision, especially where love is involved, it should be one made with the loved one in mind, especially what is best for them......and respecting what they feel as a person should be considered in that half of decision.
suppressedsoul, it makes sense to me. Love is born in and of all things, if we choose to only love what we "choose" to love, instead of loving all things and creatures equally, we do miss out on much of the love.
ReplyDeleteAre we choosing to try and destroy our home (earth) through love and peace or through greed and hatred?
