Here,
we are born on this misshapen sphere of water, rock, and molten iron
careening through a mindbogglingly vast chasm containing little more
than a faint microwave echo of a colossal explosion 12.75
billion years ago. Here, we are given a myopic sliver of history and
cultural customs tightly bound within sacred rules and rituals
painstakingly preserved on fragments of decaying vegetable fiber and
told, “This is who we are, what we do, how we do it, and why. This
is what we kill and die for, cheat, swindle, and lie for. This is
us.”
I tell you there is something far more in store for you, and you, and
you too, if you but Love. Love fiercely. Love invincibly,
unabashedly, unstoppably, furiously, eternally. Love without measure,
without remorse, without fear of loss. Love and never count
the cost. Love.
Here
and now, this is who we are. This is what we do. This is how we do it
and why. Because on this tiny fragment of minerals filled with
vegetables and animals speeding through the frigid bled we rose to
our feet and shouted to the Heavens, “We can never Love too much
and I Love all of you. Every last one of us. We are them. They are
us. I am you. You are me too. We Love all of you!”
This
is who we are. This is what we do. This is who... I AM... LOVE. So
are you.
