Love's Longing

Somewhere along the way, there develops within the soul a yearning that can no longer be ignored, a craving for the great love affair. It is incomparable. It is the love affair with our own true nature and the source from which it comes. The desire is in all of us but, more often than not, it is ignored for other interests. Human love is the shadow of the Great love and, of all loves, it is romantic love which has the most riveting effect upon our soul. It is not by accident that it has such an unfailing pull on our psyche. If we cannot connect with visible human love, we will not be able to find the invisible Love. Human love is leading us, most of us unknowingly, straight to Love's secret way; which is no secret at all.
