love is the only miracle. love

gifted freely,

unconditionally,

fearlessly, and

unabashedly … love

without doubt,

without disgust,

without assumption

or hesitation.

 

love is the one choice that transcends,

that heals by seeing wholeness

and no other possibility.

that recognizes we are already one,

each with the other,

and with all that is.

 

the question one asks

to kindle this choosing into being

is not whether i,

in all my imperfection,

am capable of loving the world like this,

or even

of loving another being so fully.

but

whether i am willing to.

and

is what i am doing

right now,

this very minute,

beautiful?
