It is to love what is loving and lovely. The world smiles. the love for the less fortunate is a beautiful thing - the love for those who suffer, for those who are poor, the sick, the failures, the unlovely. This is compassion, and it touches the heart of the world. The love for the more fortunate is a rare thing - to love those who succeed where we fail, to rejoice without envy with those who rejoice, the love of the poor for the rich, of the black man for the white man [or the white man for the black man]. The world is always bewildered by its saints. And then there is the love for the enemy - love for the one who does not love you but mocks, threatens, and inflicts pain. The tortured's love for the torturer. This is God's love. It conquers the world." Let us all choose to let go of evil and turn to Love - Jesus Christ is That Love!

Anonymous Coward User ID: 13676062 United States 04/14/2012 02:55 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | But how do you love everyone unconditionally? Easier said than done really. People, like me, have been hurt many many times so we put a wall up. We don't want to be vulnerable and be hurt again so love becomes impermeable coming in and going out. I think it's the ego. Conquering the ego has to be one of the hardest things to do. Are there any steps to take to come to that point of abundant love from within? I'd like to get there one day. As of right now, I'm a pretty cold-hearted person because of my past. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 4545733 United States 04/14/2012 03:13 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I was a christian for many years. I sincerely gave my all and trusted for answers and provision. But.......alas, after those many years I had nothing to show for my faith. I began asking questions that desparately needed answers. My prayers WERE NOT ANSWERED. I am female, found myself thrown out on to the street, and rediculed by church people. You see......I was married for over 30 years to a man who had a ThD, taught and pastored several churches. Unknown to me he also led a double life. My marriage ended in one day. My grown sons saw that I had no more money to give them and choose their father who had double-crossed all of us. Needless to say, I no longer believe in any god up in the sky who does what the bible says he will do. If there is any god it has to be US. It's a copout to point to a book, and say "your answer is in it" while not offering to help in a more physical way. Religion has provided what many think is a safe harbor for themselves, and look at the world with condemning eyes. Religion tells us that mankind is wicked beyond measure. Even with my experience I refuse to believe that. It's religion that has condemned the very inborn nature that the Creator has placed in each one of us. Religion has separated the man from the Creator. No great master artist has ever painted a masterpiece without leaving a piece of himself in it. Personally, I think we need a new definition of Love. The definition in this OP's thread comes closest, imo. Beloved.......we MUST love one another, and end the judging and condemnation. |

Wanted, loved, and cherished. A precious gift, right from birth. Others aren't so fortunate. Your post touched me so much that I looked up your posting history. From that, it seems that you don't believe in God. From my perspective, you're rejecting The One that offers you love. I wonder if there are others that have offered love but you didn't see it? Maybe if you open your heart to The One that loves you and ask Him, He will provide the love you are missing. It looks like you're a dog groomer. People who love dogs seem to be loving, caring people. I bet someone has loved, or does love you. I hope your heart and eyes will open to see it. Blessings to you. |

Why do you promote something that says to a victim: "Love the person who hurt you" . . . ? Only a person lacking self-esteem and self-respect will forgive and love cruel humans who hurt them in some way. No one can define "love" . . . it is subjective. And there is no such thing as "in love". Humans will never be happy until they realize that relationships do not work . . . humans are victims of programming which dictates to them that they MUST be in a sexual relationship, that they MUST marry, etc. There may be the occasional exception, although it will be flawed, but the majority of human beings in relationships are not happy, and never will be. |
