Why is ours not a world of love? It is there for the taking, for the making! What impedes us from realizing our true potential? Why wars instead of warmth and wonder? Why weapons instead instead of wisdom? Why jingoistic separation instead of worldwide succor? We come all from the same womb. Why then can we not all live in love in the same world of love? We have no enemies but ourselves. Enmity is the lack of being loved so we can love ourselves, and then all others. The more love is given, the more love there is to give. Our greatest gift is in the giving. To live is to love.
