Blog 42 Why Can’t People Love One Another ? (Gary)

My liver (I guess it's my liver) is hurting (or at least my right side is) so I slept in today and have hung around the house doing simple chores.  I noticed a thought that I simply wanted to know why people couldn't love one another and I felt very sad.  I think that was a twelve-year-old’s voice.  I think that has been my quest for most of my life.  Why can't people simply love each other?  Why not?

            Again, in the quiet I find much revealed.  I know I must fully love my wife and risk trusting her without fear, resentment, judgment, or reservation in order to do it.  I am also aware that the ego is the enemy of relationship.

            Do you allow yourself to love?  I mean really love someone.  What would be the cost?  Are you afraid that would mean you would be responsible for them?  What stops you from loving fully?  Fear?  Judgment?  What are your stops?
