Love is not blind …<br />

(05/29/<strong>2013</strong>)<br />

“For <strong>the</strong> rest of your life you are going to have a choice about how to read<br />

<strong>the</strong> actions & intonations of <strong>the</strong> people you meet. And I would encourage you to<br />

consider <strong>the</strong> possibility that <strong>the</strong> lives and experiences of o<strong>the</strong>rs are as complex and<br />

as unpredictable as your own; that o<strong>the</strong>r people – be <strong>the</strong>y family or strangers,<br />

near or far – are not simply one thing or <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r; not simply good or evil, or<br />

wise or ignorant – but that <strong>the</strong>y, like you, contain multitudes.” ~ John Green<br />

LOVE isn’t blind at all. It clearly sees all things “bad” and “mean” and<br />

“greedy” and “dishonest” and “evil” … It sees <strong>the</strong>se things, and <strong>the</strong>n it simply<br />

chooses to keep looking. It chooses to peer deeper, past <strong>the</strong> behaviors of o<strong>the</strong>rs, to<br />

<strong>the</strong> gentle Soul always residing within <strong>the</strong>m.<br />

LOVE isn’t blind, my Friends …<br />

On <strong>the</strong> contrary, LOVE is <strong>the</strong> only way to truly See.<br />
