The Shared Heart New Dimensions of Relationship by Joyce and Barry Vissell Love Is a Multimedia Event Many of us long for deeper connection with our loved ones. Sometimes we fail only because we are not willing to accept other people's language of love.
Love is a multimedia event.
Each one of us has our preferred media, for example, books. We need to accept that someone else's preferred media may be music. In one of my favorite parts of Light in the Mirror , Joyce told the story of her father's show of his love through building shelves for the many houses of our previously nomadic existence. Although one part of her is still childlike, sweet and innocent, another part of her is immersed in a different world. Pearl Jam, Bush or R.E.M. are playing nonstop on her boom-box.
