Explore love-Love dynamics
Rainbow love-Love actually ...
A multi-dimensional kaleidoscope
Different colors and textures
How can we make sense of love-Love?
Co-elevate literacies about their meanings
Explore ego love
Ego-love is messy, complex, pleasure-pain
The ego dimensions of love
So much to love ...
One is your ancestry, family, brotherhood, sisterhood
Tribes, community, country
Another is cooking, food, flavors, eating
Gardening, personal growth, professional development
Another is science, music, maths, ethics, morality
Creativity, craft, art, beauty
Another is values, identities
Another is ideas, innovation, entrepreneurship
Technology, artificial intelligence, social media
Another is influence, power, control, domination,
Money, investments, crypto, NFTs
Another is sex, lust, eroticism
love reflect values
How do your values compete, conflict, complement
With one another and with others
Creating perverted paradoxes of love-hate
love to hate and hate to Love
An addictive sin
love-hate kills divine Love
The dark side wages wars
Look at the light and dark sides of love
Fear-driven ego-centric love divides us and them
The triple-edge sword of love-indifference-hate
Dyslexic love unable to read itself
Escalates self-righteous rage
Ferments toxicities, traumatizing, tormenting souls
With poisonous biases, noxious vapors
Soul-destroying prejudices
Sets up unfair disadvantages, stress, strain
And deep-seated stigma
Leaves wide gapping wounds
Deep toxic scars that grieving cannot rot away
The love-hate disinformation, neo-terrorism, war of words
Disregards truth-seeking and transparent accountability
A fascist pandemic more deadly than the Covid plague
Hails cult anti-heroes, fake patriotism
Victimizers masquerading as virtuous victims
Perpetrators infected with the evil quadfecta
Pathological megalomania, malignant narcissism,
Incessant sociopathy, authoritarian autocracy
Induces trances of blind unconditional loyalty
Corrupts the soul of democracy
Pillages and rapes mother earth
Perverted love-hate is a false choice
Explore Divine Love
But divine-Love so much more
What are the divine dimensions of Love?
Love is joy, kindness, grace
Zero-dimension of enso Love
The pure being zone of becoming and doing
Another dimension of Love
Your inner flow, your music within
Another dimension is creativity, the human touch,
Empathy, compassion, altruism, caring, service
Explodes the boundaries of love
Love is awe of nature, life, existence
Another is consciousness, energy, vitality
Holism, global interconnectivity, cosmic interdependence
And Love is an anti-sin
Divine Love cures the addictions of ego-love
Love is the supreme virtue, eternal peace
The light of Love illuminates our shadows
Our dark sides of liberty and freedoms
The me trifecta of reductionism, individualism, independence
Atomizes holism, interdependence, We
Fragments the political, private, public sectors
Disperses any hope of an unifying vision
Corrupts the virtues of democracy
Self-serves individual and corporate greed
Undermines civil society, public service
The pursuit of happiness, an illusion
A false promise, never fully satisfied nor actualized
And what about managing moral dilemmas
Between using tough Love to nudge change
And being Love to induce transformations
Love, the nemesis to fear, hate, rage
Why such a taboo, inhibited, prohibited
Why are leaders afraid to speak of Love?
Fear of mocking ridicule
Leaders lack courage to be vulnerable
Fear of their image being tarnished
The integrity of Love
Cultivates a web of radical transparency
Speak truth to corrupt power
Lead with Love and Love to lead
Love enables truth
And truth enables trust
Divine Love is infinite, omnipresent
Unconditional Love knows no bounds
So simple, yet so profound
Love is timeless, pure, inclusive
Without us versus them, without hate
The holism of Love heals reductionist love
The divider, the atomizer, the disintegrator
The higher ground of Divine Love
To ubunto, satori, nirvana, salvation, enlightenment
Mindfulness liberates the biases of love
Harmonizes humanity
Holds us together on sacred middle ground
Diverse together, aligned despite our differences
Creates human and social abundance
We stand up for equity meta-governance
Fair rules, fair games, fair play
Fair opportunities and fair rewards for all
Equity liberates freedom for all
There is no true freedom without liberty
One Indivisible Love beyond the rainbow
Be One with Eternal Love
The Love of Being and Being Love
Transcends self-love
To Love, equity, and the pursuit of truth-seeking
On our one-shared commons
On our one-shared planet
Co-design an equitable, regenerative and sustainable future
Save mother earth and our humanity
For the greater good of all
For our sanity, mental health and well-being
