As I would attempt to define love, I would compare it to gravity. The aspect of love extends far out beyond our global gravitational fields but we can look at gravity as that which attracts particles toward a central core.
I would compare love to affection or more precisely, the affinity of particles in space. The very fact that we can witness the bonding of molecular solids would suggest a force field that holds these particles together. The force field wouldn’t be called gravity but gravity demonstrates the principle of attraction. This basic attraction is the pervasive and first force in the universe.
Love draws all things together. The opposite of love would be then to push away. Our innate drive to gravitate toward our own central core is that quality of love that will return us to source.
All the things that I love, all those things that I am attracted to will also be as a clue on the roadmap that will tell me more of who I truly am. I am love and you are love. All that is, is love. Love is therefore the primary force in the creation of existence. It’s the principal force behind gravity.
That which brings us joy, happiness and kindness is the mixture within the formula of life that will point us in the direction of harmony of consciousness. Love is the force of not only the visible world but also the non-physical world; the realm of thoughts and awareness.
Love is the master guardian of all motion, activity, awareness and desire. Love is the glue that holds all of existence together. Once again, love is the affinity of particles in motion.
When one feels a sense of sadness or depression, physics would say you are experiencing a time of slower particles. It’s a slowing down of consciousness; of reevaluation of what direction you may be traveling. Feeling despondent is the measure of distance you might be from your core beauty and understanding. You are then feeling farther away from love, less gravity, less connection, less affinity to the outside world.
Our present energy technology is based on reversed logic; we use explosion to create our energy rather than implosion. Explosion is to push away and that is not how nature would advise. The simple logic of “As above, so below” would tell the investigative scientist that nature uses attraction toward the center for its energy, not outward. Love brings everything together; it is the fuel of the universe.
The purity of what we call love is the strongest force field that there is—for which we can be grateful. Love doesn’t apologize any more than gravity would. Love is the gravity that brings us all together; it’s the attraction toward which we gravitate. It’s what holds the molecules together. It’s what holds together the playing field of what we call reality.
Without love nothing would hold together; it would be total randomness, and from a higher point of view, nothing is random. All motion is a projected vector.
If we come together to play a game, we have a certain degree of bonding, of coming together. It’s not unlike electrons spinning around each other. We have a force field of affinity that bonds us together. The bond is as strong as we allow and accept the attraction of particles, which is us, within the agreement of the game.
Love has become a pedestrian word, not unlike the word God. Love and God both have been given many definitions and qualities, but I find love and God to be little more than joy when I feel close to all that is. Joy is when I feel connected to you, the trees and the stars. It’s the grand affinity as experienced in the life process.
I give great thanks that we can all participate in this design of being alive within our own awareness. With a larger understanding of love, we can then play a much more grand game in the process of life, living and pleasure.
The plants are happy when the rain falls towards the earth, not away from it.
