someone to love

Leonard Cohen says in his song “Anthem”:

every heart to love will come… but like a refugee.

We are surrounded by people to love. And when it comes right down to it, that’s what ultimately matters.

Have you seen this video on Youtube of people hiding in a convenience store refrigerator during the tornado in Joplin, Missouri? All the emotions exhibited in the face of imminent death… fear, screaming, praying, comforting, crying… and one guy saying, “I love you. I love you. I love everyone. I love everyone, man!” He saw the light.

I look around you right now. Who do you see? Start loving.
