An Exploration of
Love
Love Begets Love: It Begins With Us
We are simultaneously our most intimate lover and most formidable adversary. Knowing ourselves at the most personal level—what lifts us up and what drags us down—we wield the subconscious power to choose whether to work for or against our own life’s molding. This is where the true power resides.
To become one’s own adversary is to succumb to the relentless beat of the ticking clock—the heartbeat that diverges from the rhythm of the earth, and becomes the solitary heartbeat of the mere individual. These clocks are forever ticking and they forever will be, just as they have before energy even acquired the faintest trace of the idea preceding form. The perpetual heartbeat within the fabrics of space-time, seemingly antithetical to the ephemeral happenings of everyday existence, is the space we inhabit that penetrates through the inconsequential.
To become one’s most treasured lover is to untangle ourselves from the chains of created time, letting noise fade to background and becoming all that our potential has written for us beyond the confines of the passage of time. To come to this state of becoming is to let the becoming itself disintegrate into alignment, once again attuned to frequencies both natural and pure.
On Love
Love-Touched
The warmth I feel
when the sun kisses me
enveloping me with its light;
When the moon soothes me,
Nourishing me
With its cool soft touch
Pale and blue on my cheek;
When the stars,
pulsing as they radiate,
rather than reflect,
knowing within them lies the source;
Teach me more than I could ever know
In the books I love to lose myself in
and find my way out before I drown.
Touched in such an intimate
yet impersonal manner
I become it.
And I walk away with infinitely more.
Unrequited
Love unrequited,
hurts the deepest,
Yet shines with purest light,
As it present itself as a lesson
of love devoid of expectation
and feeling fades away into presence
One cannot help but jump in headfirst
In complete submergence
But in this humbling lies a recognition
That in apparent servitude,
The distinguishing point between self and other
Becomes strictly theoretical
And empirical knowledge withstands
