Every act is an act of love or a desperate cry for love

I saw this written somewhere once and for some reason it resonated with me deeply. There is just something deep to this sentence. What are your thoughts? Just another green mumbo jumbo or a a mindblowing insight?

I remember seeing that one too. I think there's a good deal of truth in it.

It's accurate. You just have to dig down deep enough behind a person's motivations to see it. Otherwise it may definitely not look like love.

@aurum Yeah I think I am starting to see it more and more in every day life, especially in deeds I used to see as purely evil and selfish. Would make for an interesting video on your channel perhaps ;)

Finding out what is going to bring us real relief is itself part of the internal maze we need to solve. 

the culprit of all mankind's suffering right there!

Not sure if that's true. For example pooping seems kinda neutral to me. I think I heard Leo say once that reality is neutral. But I don't know if he still agrees with that.

they say love goes through the stomach :ph34r:

but i really don’t like the word every, when i hear it, it sounds like a little bit too much love - there is also running away from that. even though it could be a superlative run.

and i‘m also not sure about canteen food.

Edited by now is forever
by the way - was it written on a wall? then it was real love for running
