There is no difficulty that enough love will not conquer; No disease that enough love will not heal; No door that enough love will not open; No gulf that enough love will not bridge; No wall that enough love will not throw down; No sin that enough love will not redeem..... It makes no difference how deeply seated may be the trouble, How hopeless the outlook, how muddled the tangle, How great the mistake, a sufficient realization of love will dissolve it all.... If only you could love enough you would be the happiest and most powerful being in the world....
Now you will feel no rain, For each of you will be shelter to the other. Now you will feel no cold, For each of you will be warmth to the other. Now there is no more loneliness for you, Now you are two persons, but there is one life before you. Go now to your dwelling-place To enter into the days of your togetherness. And may your days be good and long upon the earth.
Spirit breathed a love that would hold, but not restrain; A fondness that would enfold, but not bind; A joy that would delight, but not possess; A promise that would be sacred, but not burdened; A mindfulness that would be constant, but not obsessive. Here two souls would share An open invitation to one another, A mutual consent to one another, An unshakeable trust in one another, A timeless, simply elegant love
They knew that nothing and no one could ever part them. Though their love holds them, neither restrains the other; Though their fondness enfolds them, neither binds the other; Though their joy delights them, neither possesses the other; Though they are promised, one to the other, neither rules the other. Though their mindfulness of one another is constant, neither controls the other. And through the years, their invitation to one another will remain open, Their consent to one another shall be mutual, Their trust in one another stays ever unshakeable, Their love is timeless, simply elegant -- High Romance.
Let there be spaces in your togetherness. And let the winds of the heavens dance between you. Love one another, but make not a bond of love; Let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls. Fill each other’s cup, but drink not from one cup. Give one another of your bread, but eat not of the same loaf. Sing and dance together and be joyous, but let each of you be alone, Even as the strings of a lute are alone, though they quiver with the same music. Give your hearts, but not into each other’s keeping, for only the hand of Life can contain your hearts. And stand together, but not too near together, for the pillars of the temple stand apart, And the oak tree and the cypress grow not in each other’s shadow.
family. Of all the attributes of God, love is undoubtedly the most beautiful. In Divine Mind, love is the power that joins and binds in divine harmony the universe and everything in it.... Love is an inner quality that sees good everywhere and in everybody. It insists that all is good, and by refusing to see anything but good, it causes that quality finally to appear uppermost in itself, and in all things. Love is the great harmonizer and healer.... Divine love will bring your own to you, adjust all misunderstandings, and
(Charles Fillmore).
“Love that fulfills the Law is the great sense of unity that prompts the soul to seek the understanding and practice of that which is for the welfare not only of the beloved, but of all humanity” (Myrtle Fillmore).
Love is patient and kind; love is not jealous or boastful; it is not arrogant or rude. Love does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrong, but rejoices in the right. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never ends.
