The Power of Love

Love is a power, a mighty principle that exists in its own right, independent of any individual. Man changes but the principle of love does not and cannot. Love does not leave men and women; men and women leave love.

Love is all around you, like the air, and it is the very breath of your being, but you cannot know it, feel its unfeeling touch, until you pause in your busy-ness and are still and empty of your wanting and desiring.

When at rest the air is easily offended and will flee even from the fanning of a leaf, as love flees from the first thought. But when love moves of its own accord it is a hurricane that drives all before it.
