What is love? Countless answers, contradictions, and struggling for understanding. A pure spark of joy. An aching, throbbing pain. An immersive bliss. Staring into the divine, looking God in the face, dancing with Creation. Attachment. Connection with other. Respect for self. Powerful. Vulnerability. Rawness, Richness, Aliveness. Full body breathing. Giving up trying to comprehend. Trying again in desperate search for answers. Realizing the futility of attempting control. Giving in to the dynamic fluidity of love's grace.
Brother Love was a man at Rainbow Gathering who would ask hundreds of people each year, Love is...? He handed out printed sheets of the answers from the previous year.

I believe our task as humans is to return again and again to living in love. Life will continue to dish out opportunities for us to be in love and it's our calling to learn how to say yes!
