Well dear Lance: passion and indeed prayer are much lacking in our world, and music sometimes helps us rediscover it, so feel free to write your impassioned thoughts about the nature of REAL LOVE.
Music will bring out the deep emotions - that is why it is so powerful and so healing also. I have used music often in seminars. It can bring out the deepest of undercurrents, it can bring the "unknown" to the surface, it can encourage great vivacity, energy and joy. And music does not manipulate - it brings out what is already there, but slumbering perhaps ...
You have hit the nail on the head with this:
You don't look for Love: you try your hardest (probably why I am a bachelor) to BECOME Love. You don't try to PRAY, you become PRAYER because you are empassioned. Healthy and happy family units are important as they provide stability for our most precious gift, our children. Yet BEING LOVE AT ALL TIMES TO ALL PEOPLE is our greater aim. If nourished within a stable family structure, children are MORE EQUIPPED TO DO THIS.
All religions are corrupted (a huge topic), not least in suggesting that introspection/prayer should take place once a week, only in certain forms and in certain places, with certain priest or officials present. Islam suggested 5 times a day. Well, this is not being "constantly online to the Divine", but better than once a week, LOL!
The focus should be on our own individual spiritual journeys. In this sense, we are all "wayfaring strangers", encountering people on the same path, learning from them and teaching them. You are right dear Lance: it is all about WHAT WE GIVE.
And perhaps this fits in well here:
ED SHEEREN with a song I love singing too:
WAYFARING STRANGER. [

Oh, I have a bit of writing in me. The second song. If you have ever found a black (dark blue really) eyed woman who you did not fall instantly in Love with, you missed a thing. You missed some otherwordly passion that comes not from another, not from yourself really, it is a passion that arises from a wry grin and a certain amount of anger like taking down a wild horse. Dark blued eyed women with long black hair and I if I were the Highway man in the song...yup...I'd ride to my death.
With unction, 'don't fricking touch her or I will slit your neck'. Everyone must feel this passion for someone before it becomes clear. There has to be a driving urge to protect or a man withers. You can protect by a pension, you can protect by an inheritance, but protecting by a rapier seems the best to me. I'm going to ramble, screw it OP can delete but
Having long ago realized that Love doesn't go away (if it indeed was Love) and having a bunch of them (mostly all married and I get long with hubbies and kids) I can see how the culture has been split into 'we protect ours' and 'ours' is a couple of people but my concept which I spill out here, because I am in a mood is, you don't look for Love you try your hardest (probably why I am a bachelor) to BECOME Love. You don't try to PRAY, you become PRAYER because you are empassioned.
Can you imagine coming back to an Inn to rescue your 'black-eyed' Love even though you knew you were doomed? It didn't matter...if you do not protect your loves, your fucking life is useless anyhow. Not rising to the occasion makes cowards of us all, of either gender. Rant over about the song.
