It's been said that We are each of us angels, with only one wing. The truth is, we only think we can fly alone, in the symbolic sense, separate and apart from those around us. Of course, some individuals do feel this way and perhaps suffer the aloneness such a thought process creates.
Love is much like life, with different meanings and perspectives for everyone.
Maybe love is about family, or friends, or animals, or spouses, or maybe it's about materialism. It was once said to me that if it doesn't have a heartbeat, a material thing should not be made quite so important. And if it is, then maybe it's time to re-examine its importance. I speak of love not from a place of understanding, but from a place of feeling and a place of living. And, I speak of love not just from the heart, but from the brain.
