Thread Name: BS: what is love
Subject: RE: BS: what is love
Love is the highest impulse in Life, and it is the source of all Life. It is the highest intelligence and wisdom, put into action. It is the giver of meaning and the heart of all useful purpose. It is that which recognizes in the Other the same that is recognized in Self...the most intimate awareness of complete unity and shared meaning and value on every level. Love says "There is only One of us here. You are that One, and so am I, and so are all others. Together we are far greater than the sum of our apparently separate identities. Together we are magnificence. Apart, we wait only to rediscover that we are One and inseparable, united by Love."

Or were you talking about Hollywood romance? :-)

To think that Love can arise only as an emotional/biological response to another specific human being is naive. That's just a fragment of what Love is, but it can be a very nice fragment if handled wisely.
