What is this thing called Love?

I was not really sure if I was ready for this trip, spiritually speaking, when I started. All I knew is I felt a draw towards it, almost gravitational. God has drawn me to himself through this trip, and also used it to give me motivation to do things I hate doing. He's a clever guy, that Almighty Creator.

He has drawn me to himself in such a way that it's almost romantic. Not the sexy part of romantic, but the part where when you think about that person, you just kinda grin. Y'know? It's nice. And it's caused me to have a genuine love for people, which has been great.

But I've realized that Love, though more important than wisdom, is not wise... exactly. It's certainly not intelligent.

If you love everyone in the world truly, to the point of genuine and consistent empathy, what do you do when people hurt themselves?

  1. I'm a little unclear on the ugly/brightest beauty part. I'm sure it will all make sense as you explain it.
