Why Love?
Why Love? Every single day something terrible, life-altering, soul-crushing is happening to you or someone you care about. We answer with anger, fear, judgement or indifference because those are easier to process. But they do not heal. The comfort they provide is fleeting. When I speak of love I do not speak of a cure all or magical potion. I speak of the action of love, which is an ever changing and evolving apparatus that is not easy to wield.
We let petty things destroy us. We give power to our weakness. We are hypocrites and fools. Nothing good will ever come out of this, except love. Our darkest and most damning days can still lead us to love.
I can not answer what is love, or how to love. I can not tell you when love will find you, or when you will find the love you need. But I feel like I understand why. Even if I can only express my answer with some flowery language. (Originally written 5/11/2016)
