The Essence of LOVE, can you touch it?

HELLO LOVE Project....


My heart says this is the question for today, so it goes like this......What. oh what is Love, that can be touched?

hmnnn...

Good Question... I immediatley have ideas jump to my head...like Isabella my beautiful husky puppy! And, holding hands with the great guy....and yum..the ocean..YES! Except, the HELLO LOVE project is to learn...so since I already came up with those answers.. I will explore what is LOVE that can be touched throughout my day and let you know later...!! If you know, please, please share it with me. Whatever it is for you!

A Poem by Rumi

One Swaying Being

Love is not condescension, never that,

nor books, nor any marking on paper,

nor what people say of each other.

Love is a tree with branches reaching into eternity

and roots set deep in eternity, and no trunk! Have you seen it?

The mind cannot. Your desiring cannot. The longing you feel for this Love comes from inside you.

When you become the Friend, your longing will be as the man in the


ocean who holds a piece of wood. Eventually wood, man and ocean...

Become one swaying being.
Shams Tabriz, the secret of God.
