Love


We really have to understand the person we want to love. If our love is only a will to possess, it is not love. If we only think of ourselves, if we know only our own needs and ignore the needs of the other person, we cannot love.
-Thich Nhat Hanh

'Love and compassion are eternal,
and so am I.
Knowing this
will free you
from the shackles
of ignorance and bigotry;
allowing you to become one
with that which you perceive
to be Divine.
Embrace one another
so that you may experience
all that which is divine within your being.
In this lies
your spiritual salvation
and that of others.
(The Codex: A Divine Writ)(Rumi, Cyrus)

Namaste (& peace)
