Love
We are all island universes, self contained points of experience. Within our isolation is safety; in our own minds, we can only hurt ourselves, and even in pain, the self provides a comfortable intimacy. But within that isolation is also desolate loneliness; we need others to be complete. There is no pain greater than connection with other people, and there is no greater joy. Love unlocks that connection. It is the ultimate act of faith, to give yourself over to something entirely out of your control, and to let go. This is where we find love. A power so great it can tear us apart, from cell, to body, to family, to nation. And it binds as well, within couples, families, nations, and beyond. Love transforms, heals, grows; it may be the primal energy of the cosmos, and it unites the self with others, and through them, with the universe.
