Demonstrably a part of the human condition, we share with all others the need to love and to be loved. Here, we speak not of a love likened to, and stemming from, the intemperate passions of the body, but of the love embeded within the soul; part and parcel of our very being: immortal, life-giving love. This is the divine love that cannot be denied; love that forever sustains us. To know it fully, we must first love ourself, that we may love and be loved. It means going within to face up to that which gives rise to our disquiet. In the end, as with all else in life, it is simply a matter of being honest with ourself.

“… the need to love and to be loved.”
Listening to a radio program about story telling I thought about my weekend which was planned around meeting up with three friends, one-on-one. Each meeting’s thread of commonality had a comfortable setting, friendship, story-telling and the need to love and to be loved. blw
