The Code of Love (continued)
observations are a subjective commentary based on my own perceptions and studies.
Do yourself a favour and argue with me. Listen to what I have to say and then play it out across the landscape of your own circumstances. Accept some of it, all of it or none of it, but do think about it because it is only through the process of conscious thought that the seeds of change can be planted.
What I do know for certain is that people can change given knowledge coupled with desire. I know this because of the many times I have seen people make the choice to change as a result of circumstances that are quite often tragic. I have seen people change out of the simple desire to be more than what they are. I have seen people change when the proverbial light shines in their mind and suddenly they ‘see ‘ what it is that needs changing. Over the course of a lifetime each of these examples could be valid as the catalyst for change that leads to growth as a human. Growth and maturity are integral to all processes of life. No living organism is designed to stagnate or stay the same. That is not to say that it doesn’t happen, it is just not the natural order of life’s construct.
My challenge, both in writing this book and laying out my perceptions of love, is to adequately incorporate the understanding that humans are complex, unique individuals and that no one brush can be applied to all. You may and probably do share commonalities with thousands of people across the world, but how you think and feel as an individual is unique to you as is my thought process unique to me.
As you read through the next pages on what love is use the words as a measure to assess how much or how little you apply love in your own life and thoughts. The measure will vary considerably from one person to the next depending on personality traits and the components of your life. For instance, compassion is part of my nature so it is not something I have to think about. On the other hand, acceptance, particularly the part about being non-judgemental, is something that has been learned and requires my attention on a regular basis.
