If you live during one day and see the glowing sun, not to know how to read and write is not dangerous, not to know how to count or swim, to understand the time zones or thermodynamics, we can pardon you that, you may not like the painting or the cycle, not believe in saints, but if you live during one day, know that the only thing which is reasonable, it is to love. |

Much enjoyed. I would just like to say though, that there are more types of love than just the love between a man and a woman. In fact, that type of love blossoms most when all the other types are healthy - the love between family members; the love between friends; the love of all humanity; the love of animals and all living creatures; the love of all living (including plants) and non-living things (including mountains and rocks and streams) in Nature; the love of God; and the love for all of those altogether that just bubbles out of one's soul (the last mentioned being a sort of Margherita-type love).

As they say, "Love makes the world go 'round!" ~ sounds "reasonable" to me!  Love & Light, Linda  |

Yes, yann, love makes the world go 'round, and it is the glue that binds it all together. It is paradoxically reasonable, and beyond reason! Oh, the wonders of the many faces of love. Thanks yann, art |
