Opposing Forces

Within the grand scheme of things
how important is it to have
loved someone and to receive
love in return?

Some were not raised within the flow
of love, acceptance and affection.
They have lived in an atmosphere of
abuse, control and manipulation.

These words and action they
have grown to know well
They need to learn about love
and have love storys to tell.

Within the grand
scheme of things,
love is everything.

The flow of love is universal..... the key is in opening our hearts to let it in. Its easy to limit our beliefs to believe that it is simply a gift based on the act of giving and receiving.... Something instilled in many of us from a very young age. But love is everywhere and  in everything... Love, was not on great flow to me as a child from where one would hope or expect.... but that did not stop me from feeling loved... or knowing the true essence of this force....  We simply have to be the conductor of the flow that allows it to reach where other sources of its flow may have failed.

  Lovely sentiments that provoke thought!
  thankyou for sharing

I couldn't agree with your thoughts more, and it sometimes requires forgiveness as well as infinite patience and unconditional love to reach one who can not trust or touch with his/her heart.

A very thoughtful write...

I see that you have your philosophical cap on today. You certainly have written some wonderful ones ~ and this is one of them!

"Within the grand
scheme of things,
love is everything."

~ I totally concur, Island Man!
