What is love?
arqios said:
Such excellent words and thoughts about the altruism of love, not of necessity or coercion but of value and esteem. Thanks Soren!

Emotional scripture
arqios said:
Reminds me of the Jedi sacred writings that was supposed to have been incinerated by Yoda to shake up a jaded Luke Skywalker. It\'s not about what\'s inked but the spirit in/of which they were written and sent off.

Life
Doggerel Dave said:
You take on big themes, soren.
\"In the end one dies.....see it as a whole\" - not sure how smart I am, but that\'s the way I see It. Thanks.

Do you believe?
Doggerel Dave said:
Funnily enough, soren prior to my arrival here I had used the word \'believe\' in relationship to another piece posted today and then rejected in preference for certainty.
And therein lies the difference: Belief is a perception without real evidence to verify any of the social constructs you list.
Could almost be developed into a mantra. Well said.

Do you believe?
Bella Shepard said:
Excellent questions! I have come to feel, at my late age, that belief is a very powerful word. Be it for good or bad, it has a rigidity to it that sometimes disturbs me. So I now prefer to use the word \"think\", because every day is a learning experience. Love that you have posed this quandary, that I may now think up on it. Great write my friend.

Apologies I have a very literal mind (always doing this here). Your title... only after I popped back briefly to see if you had any bites and explanation as above.....neat write.

Love and hate
Bella Shepard said:
Too often our foolishness supersedes our humanity, something we\'ve yet to dwell upon. Maybe somewhere in that distant future? You\'ve given something to truly reflect upon.

Hateful creatures the lot of them... Is that why all the extraterrestrials aim to purge this planet of humanity!?

Life\'s meaning

2-door Mercury from 1970? In my case I shall be feed for grass. And yes, the \"circle of life goes unbroken.\"

Tightrope (between heaven and hell)

When there is not even anymore losses to minimise escaping with the skin still on our backs seems the sensible thing to do. Thanks for sharing.

I must endorse this - I\'ve argued the relevance of history on these pages for a while. Kudos to you for the provision of concrete cues the open minded could follow...

Have we forgotten?
arqios said:
Could the chain and recurrence be that there is a forgetfulness that needs reminding? Nuts and bolt to the proverb about history \'repeating\' itself? And that this isn\'t an isolated case where darkness and injustice is insidious and persistent. Help us to remember.... more. Thanks for sharing.

Lament
Bella Shepard said:
I\'ve often thought the phrase \"the cost of living\"is a misnomer. It\'s more \"the cost of surviving\"\' in a commercial, political, impersonal world. Quite accurate my friend.

Words to dust
Bella Shepard said:
For me this is a sublime metaphor, the mining and crafting of words into poetry. Who knows when that refuse may become gold. Such a fine write dear poet.
