Because there is love we exist. Not because of sex, even though that’s literally how we’re here (most of us anyway), but we exist because we form bonds of family and friends. We can even bond with strangers, with characters in books or on film or other mediums.
Our capacity to love never diminishes.
We might become bitter, or angry, or vengeful, but find a way to crack that and love can enter, fully.
Removing love can make us feel broken, incapacitated, but it never ends our ability to love if we had enough love and appropriate touch in infancy and early childhood.
Love is the center of our being and emanates from our heart – which is where our goodness and spiritual connection also stem from.
Love can and has changed the world, and love can save a soul, and heal our entire planet.
We get to choose what we leave in this world. All we can do is pass on our love, and knowledge and wisdom. The rest falls away.
Love is steady and unceasing, but it must be chosen and practiced and remembered.
Choosing love isn’t always easy, but it’s an open invitation, just waiting whenever, if ever, we’re ready and willing.
