"I love you."
"I love you, too."
"But, you love everybody."
I felt a profound sadness for her
as I realized she actually believed
that made it mean less.

I was smiling about this insightful conversation ...
and would continue it like this :
"and he answered : 'don't the sunrays both fall upon pretty flowers and excrements ? does the rose choose the receiver of her perfume ? true love makes no distinctions ... the lover, beloved and love are one ..."
well, this kind of thing ...

I think....I think.... I think this is sometimes my reaction too...'she' could be any one of 'us'...we want to be the only one in anothers heart, but we want to be free to love whomever we will....we make ourselves so self-important and then believe the lie ...I love this write, Allan. It hits like an arrow, like Cupid's arrow of real love...it pierces the veil of ego and finds its mark perfectly. So sad it didn't win in the contest. Peace, Rhonda

Pretty good! Is there a difference in the depth or amount of love? Do you love here more than me? How is it measured?
Love,

Our hearts are big enough to hold love for many people, and on many different levels. Some people think that lessons the love for them, yet it doesn't. That is sad!
