Love always thinks of the other; ego thinks only of oneself. Love is always considerate; ego is absolutely inconsiderate. Ego has only one language and that is of self. Ego always uses the other; love is ready to be used. Love is ready to serve.

So what we really talk about when we talk about love is spirit of generosity and hope, limiteless and timeless, complete and total aceeptence of self and other as part of some greater whole-- whether it be a marriage or the world-- without burdens or obligations-- an energy, something undefined, that once created can never be uncreated. And everything else is just pap.

Whoops, I guess I forgot that.

Cleanse on.
