That depends on how you mean the question, Artiste.

There are matters that I have discovered that need attention, that love has no bearing on.

However, there are matters where love plays a definite role in.

Shakesthecoffecan:
That is the thing with Artiste's questions, owing to the difference in language and the mode of translation, they come out a bit escew, a bit poetic, like an archer firing off a frisbee at a deer and hitting a watermellon insted.

Certainly it seems that way. A life without love would be very bleak. A lot of our life is taken up with love, certainly in this generation and time. I am not sure about past times.

I think, and more to the point, a lot of our lives are taken up with our perceptions of love.  I think it was on Gary's thread that the discussion about politics in relationships took place.  I think it's the same with the whole concept of love.  Far too many people approach this very ethereal of human states from a "what's in it for me" perspective; from a position of power and dominance.  I don't happen to think that real love is quantifiable or qualifiable.  It simply is, and you take whatever gifts it brings into your life without asking "why can't it be more?" or "what will I get out of this?"

Shakesthecoffecan:
So my thought for the day is in responce to Artiste's question earlier,


Not always.... ;)

Artiste:
Thanks very much Shakestheground, Scott, CellarDweller!!!

Devoir accompli? (Task of life accomplished?, might be those two words translated from French to English?). There is a force which drives one to live. Certainly for me. Is is Love? Is is that for you too? What OTHER forces associates with Love??

Life is always a question of Love? may I repeat that. Since, I feel that one can NOT live without [more]LOVE, LOVE BEING WHAT MOTIVATES US TO LIVE EVERYDAY[/move][/b]??

Hugs!!! Hugs!!! Hugs!!!
