“The Beloved sometimes wants to do us a great favor: Hold us upside down and shake all the nonsense out.  But when we hear She is in such a “playful drunken mood,” most everyone I know quickly packs their bags and hightails it out of town.”  Hafiz

Yes.  Sometimes “Love manhandles us..rip to shreds all your erroneous notions of truth.” 

We can cry for love, we can love and leave, we can love and remove ourselves from the ravages of trying to “fix” those we love.  We can love and detach.

But I can’t love you if I don’t love me.  And the Bigger Me inside of me needs all my love all the time.  If I keep that fire burning, my love for you never ever goes out.
