Dostoyevsky on Love ~

Published by iowahippiechick at 11:24 pm under Inspiration Edit This

This is my favorite piece of writing …

Love is God’s creation, the whole and every grain of sand in it.
Love every leaf, every ray of God’s light.
Love the animals, love the plants, love everything.

If you love everything, you will perceive the divine mystery in things.
Once you perceive it, you will begin to comprehend it better every day.

And you will come at last to love the whole world with and all-embracing love.

-Fyodor Dostoyevsky

 

Isn’t that something? 

Just think what a different world it would be if people purely loved?  

As I’ve gotten older -

It truly is easier to embrace Dostoyevsky’s thoughts on love. 

Because in the end …

Love really is all that matters - 

Simply love.

Happy Valentine’s Day -

Peace and Love,
