i'm not sure if there is such a thing as healthy love.
because its not healthy to cause yourself harm
and yet
love always results in suffering.
if we were honest, our phrases would go like this:
"pain is blind"
"all you need is masochism"
"and the greatest of these is suffering"
love, love, love.
you mess everything up.
and god is love, therefore god is the source of suffering
ReplyDeleteperhaps i have wrongly equated one of the results of love with actual love.
ReplyDeleteor perhaps, i wrongly believe that suffering is wrong, anti-God, anti-love.
it seems like there is a constant tug-of-war between believing that God creates evil in our lives or believing that God is powerless over it.
at least i have the comfort that my questions are not new.
