Learning what it means to love truly and completely and finding that the more I love, the more this small self disappears into the whole.
“mindjob” Heh!
I love this: “The more confused you are, the better.” Than I’m doing great
Thanks for giving us another way to view love relationships. I struggle a lot like your sociology student did, wanting something tangible, but when I can drop that love just becomes a field we swim in, with no reason to attach to anything. Another lovely post!

“when I choose to love, that love is divine”
LOVE that. ok, i don’t think in terms of divinity, but i get it.
my emphasis is always on the quality of the love. i had never thought of the moment, that nanosecond of choosing love, as the perfection.
