Caricatures of Love
Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.
Love: I love you, because you are you…
… that is, you fall in love not with certain characteristics or abilities of the other one, but with the one who owns those features.
However, there are love caricatures…
love as curiosity
love as relaxation, leisure, pastime
love as sex, sexuality, sexual activity
love as obeying the rules
love as skill, performance, proficiency
love as rivalry and battlefield
love as control, constraint, chaining up
love as reproduction of the species
love as politeness, gratitude, indebtedness
love as self-esteem confirmation
love as logical consequence
love as business interest
love as leveling
love as punishment
love as the rescuing solution
love as desire, attraction, lust
love at any cost
love as healing, rehabilitation, playing the doctor
love as generosity, charity by an charitable organization
love as an educational institute.
