Let me tell you something about my wife . She loves people . She's only ever been supportive to everyone .

Cm one day she might leave me and break my heart but let me tell you something .

I will always always love her . No matter what . As long as I exist . An unconditional and absolute love . And that my friend is love .

Is this freight train of posts to yourself another measure of love?

If so, you might want to take a natural yogurt break.  Just to be safe.

Ghostess I don't accept its a delusion to believe that you can know that you'll always love someone . It's a beautiful and precious thing and it suggests to me that actually there is something about a person that is timeless and unchanging and I love that .

We are a couple of hopeless romantics aren't we ?

It's passed that.

Ah . Interesting . I love to talk . But I love this subject . I think there's something wonderful about this puzzle and I enjoy it .
tomtrytostay
Maybe you are right Ghostess . We are love are we not ?

no, love has no relation to ego. when you say you are love, you are being egotesticle.

tomtrytostay
Oh I like that .
tomtrytostay
That's really interesting . I can relate to that too .

This love just exists . It's not created. We don't own it .

Nice comment .
tomtrytostay
I guess it's closer to the truth to say love exists . It's part of who we are though right ?
tomtrytostay
You know sometimes people turn a blind eye to suffering . Like people of different colours saying I just don't care how things are for the other .

You know like that experiment about the teacher that said that the blue eyed kids were naughty . Something like that .

Are we taught to hate ? Do we love naturally or are we taught to love ?

My own experience is that love comes naturally . We just have to let it happen .

I don't mean being loved , just loving .

And I mean agape love I'd say

Well I hope she is always in your life. You probably have a good chance of that happening. Of course, if you stay on the forums for hours every night...

you guys have a point. To be honest a lot of my time I'm travelling so it's nice to be able to chat here. But my wife loves facebook you know. 

It's becoming that sort of world no? Where we all sit around talking online and take a break and talk offline.

I was thinking the morning about tribalism. 

I recall watching batman vs superman I wanted batman to triumph and I saw that the reason was I saw batman as a human being, part of my tribe. 

We are naturally inclined to support our own.

there's truth in that. We are an animal. Can we rise above the behaviour of an animal? Sometimes that seems to be the case. I guess perhaps some animals are as kind and as selfless as some people. 

Certainly there are some animals I'd trust above some humans.

when I watched the batman movie I noticed myself being stimualted by the fighting. We seem natually to enjoy fighting. I think perhaps we are built genetically to fight. We've had to to surive when you think back. 

And yet we are all so sensitive to pain nowadays right? We are used to having a fairly pain free life. I bet it hasn't always been that way.

also thinking about this animal evolution that's happening, sometimes we have rage that's entirely disproportionate to what's happening. 

Someone at work steals our thunder and we are about ready to kill them. We have to rise above our natural instincts don't we? Perhaps see through the pattern. 

I'm reminded of the whole religious thing. The battle of spirit vs flesh.

I miss babytigrr . Kaynight has forgiven me my sins against my father I wonder if babytigrr can too . Anyway this thread isn't about me it's about us. I just thought that I'd like to offer the hand of friendship that's all . Same to md and New England .
