Love's Spirit

As I close my eyes and drift away to a land where there is love, health, peace and blessings. I wanted to take the time to think and reflect particularly with regards to the topic / concept of love, that once again I am beginning to explore deeper. It is interesting that love crops up again as Valentines Day is once again upon us. Love intrigues me. fascinates me. A source of gain, pain, pleasure and plights. Yet, as humans I always wonder can we live without love? Weather that be with the attachment of friends, family, loved ones, intimacy, sexual, or just learning to love the self. Or even the Godly form of love, that pulls us through the many circumstances, happiness or sadness that we face. 

     But I have always said that the relations, bonds that we do form with humans are equated to that of from God. As God's spirit lives within us, as we choose to believe or not. The very beating of our heart, the breath that we breathe, and the blood that circulates within us, is enough to make us ponder. This idea of life, God, attachments are linked to love. It is the power of love. Love's power is and should be very different to that of hate or anger. Love's power does not seek to harm, hate - even in betrayal or distrust, love continues to trust. Love continues to strive to love. This is what is means to offer sacrificial love. To love for the sake of the other, even if we ourselves have to suffer. This is the power of love - love should always seek to remain love, even in the difficult instances; these are simply a test of what it means to love, and remain committed to the mission of love!
