Sometimes Love is not a Fluffy Thing

“Sometimes love is not a fluffy thing. It’s got edges and teeth. Love refuses to play small or to sell out…. I’ve never taken on a challenge as big as when I made a commitment to live my life as an expression of love – with every thought, every word, every action. In every moment, I ask myself: what would love think in this moment, what would love say in this moment, what would love do in this moment? When we look at what’s happening in the world today, if we care, we get angry. But that’s just a natural defense mechanism to dealing with something we care about being hurt. If we’re not careful, we get stuck in the anger mode. And then we try to bring love and healing into the world, but instead we bring anger to the situation. Anger is a disconnect. To turn things around, we can choose to bring love, even when it’s a fierce love.”

In conversation with Richard Brendan, first part requoted from an interview with Yoga Plus Magazine, podcast published April 22, 2013
