This line resonated very deeply with me. Love is not spineless. It stands up for truth and justice with the same intensity as it loves all of life.

I think love does not shy away from passing judgement when it is required. But I think it will judge with one hand and bless with the other.

I think love will acknowledge the ground reality without pronouncing grand platitudes about the need for non-judgement but it will not lose sight of a greater possibility where a stronger and better harmony is possible.

Perhaps it’s a lot like nature where a volcane can thunder and a flower can bloom at the same time.

I have been thinking these thoughts for the part few days but cultivating and holding that balance is easier said than done. It’s the work of a lifetime.
