The Philosophy of Love
Philosophy is the love of wisdom. Therefore the philosophy of love could be called the love of wisdom of love. However when dwelling on these matters and the writing of great thinkers I guess there is a tendency to get hung up on one or two words. Is it romantic? I think it can be although love is a feeling and not a thought. One does not describe it so much as experience it.

Is love a tangible thing? What is essentially 'real' and what is temporal? How is it something so powerful and universal cannot be seen or touched?
"Disability causes me to believe more strongly in a duality between body and spirit... 'cause if I'm a soul, I'm just as good as you. And if I'm a body, then I'm up shit creek, ain't I?"
- Mark O'Brien was a diabled poet and journalist, for more on and by him go to- www.pacificnews.org/marko/index.html
"I'd always assumed I was the central character in my own story, but now it occurred to me I might in fact be only a minor character in someone else's"
- Russell Hoban in Turtle Diary
a parable  (conversation with an angel)

Where are we?
   you are here.

What time is it?
   it is now.

Why are we here?
   you are here to learn.

What are we to learn?
   to learn to love.

To love who?
   start with yourself.

How?
be kind to yourself, here and now.

Yesterday and the past are gone and that is why...
they are called History

Tomorrow and the future are yet to come and that is why...
they are a Mystery

Today God has given you as his gift and that is why...
we call Now -  "the Present"
