I was reading an email daily message from a writer called Richard Rohr. And the theme of love came up. I found it to be a timely comment on the week I have just experienced. The last paragraph of his message especially got me thinking, it goes like this:
"Is there at least one place in your life where you are giving and
receiving love? If it happens in one place, it can happen everywhere. If
you are truly capable of loving one person, you’re capable of loving
more than one, and eventually even your enemy, and
finally all. Love is one piece. Thus, we rightly speak of
being “in love” and Paul speaks of being “in Christ.” Love is all or
nothing. You either express love or you don’t. The Scholastic
philosopher, Josef Pieper, said it very well, “the proper
habitat for truth is human relationship.” How we relate to anyone is
how we relate to everything else, too."
Bring on the love ... only love!
