The Omnilover
There are better ways than the way we're going.
What if we loved till the day we die?
What an exhilarating proposition! Why not, one may ask. What is there to lose?
Some creators love intensively and don't know it. Or won't show it.
"Love shall conquer all" is an inspiring thought, besides being faithful in the general sense of the word.
Imagine a world with love everywhere.
For a minute. Can we see it?
The movie "Clockwork Orange" comes to mind—a hater changing his ways forcefully to the extreme, by an extreme.
However, if it happened naturally, that would be miraculous.
Loving instead of hating. Learning instead of devolving. Building instead of destroying. Planting rather than cutting. And so on…
And why not? Why can't something switch in our brains to make us evolve for once and for all?
And love more, not less.
The funny thing is that most people are seeking such a state. It's blissful. The ones who do not are the unfortunate ones carrying such a heavy load that we can only feel for them.
Most of them are not even aware there's another way, and they're dealing with their own demons that give no quarter. No breaks. No ceasefires.
There's little we can do to fight other people's aberrations. The best we can do to help the world is to help ourselves.
Love. As much as you can and for as long as you can. For the ones who aren't able to.
It's the only way.

If You Love Me, You'll Do It
I met Jason when I was five years old. I could say that I loved him from the moment I saw him. He was so handsome to me and I felt in awe by his presence. When they introduced him as the new kid in school, I wanted to be his friend right away. I remember it like it was yesterday. I remember his smile and how he didn't seem shy. He appeared confident and ready to learn. I waved at him and said "hello," before anyone else could even say a word. He sat next to me, and I asked him if he wanted to be friends. He looked so happy as he said, "Yes!"

You write from the best part of your soul; I feel grateful I stumbled upon this piece, on this particular morning, in such a tainted world. Thank you.
This was so divine and lovely! Such a wonderful story!
Deep and emotive, so many what ifs.
Loved this. This is great.
