Profundities

[drwex]

Sometimes I think that the universe speaks to me. Not in the "Noah? This is God, Noah" sense. But rather in the sense that something engages my brain in an unexpected and meaningful way. Often it's internal - I realize a thing that was true and always was true and I just didn't... know it until the universe spoke it to me.

Sometimes, though, it's words or ideas from elsewhere. Today I got a double-shot of thoughts about love and that's the universe speaking to me so I'm going to write them down.

One is a quote, that I think i want on a tee shirt or something:

"Love does not save the world; love makes the world worth saving."

And the other is from a discussion about one's self-image, and it goes:

"I needed to see myself in the world in a way I could love."

Like a lot of profundities these things may be only profound to me, and maybe only to Now Me. That's OK, I'm just here to write things down from time to time.

Yes. Love is what makes the world worth living for.

"Love does not save the world; love makes the world worth saving."

Oooooh, I'm having a big Rose Tico (from The Last Jedi) mood right now. This is lovely.
