Strength in What Remains

I think one of the biggest motivators for individuals towards acts of kindness/ generosity is what lies at the core of the human experience. At the core of all humans, is this trait called love. Love maybe an elusive idea, but it is evident in many ways. Love of the neighbor, the stranger on the city streets, the lost dog wandering the carelessly around town, etc. We all share this emotion in some form or another, some more than others of course, but it exists in all of us. We all experience this collective as part of the human condition: we encounter great movments in life(highs) and we also are faced with extreme hardships (lows) in life, regardless of wealth,friendship, enthnicity, and so forth. Thus, we all encounter this universal problem. Yet we move towards the greater good in all of us, its innate... Its this invisible force, some says its "GOD", for others it may be some type of energy force. In sum, despite what notions we have of someone/something, despite what has happened to us, we can put our differences aside, our feelings aside, and move towards forgiveness, which is a can be shaped in the form of Love. We alll live on the same sphere called Earth, all are part of humanity.
