The limits of love

(The prodigal son) left and his father didn't get in his way. He respected him! It's unbelievable: God's respect, how God respects you. He didn't get in his son's way!
- Go, my son.
- You don't love me?
- I love you deeply.
- So, you want me to go?
- No.
- You don't feel pain?
- I do.
- Then, why don't you do something?
- I do.
- What?
- I respect you!

from radio broadcast (father Andreas Konanos)

About love...

I was constantly thinking of some lines of "the little prince". Words so full of meaning...

"You have to look with the heart. The substance of life can't be seen through the eyes". And with these words, I couldn't help thinking of Jesus' command of loving God and people.

Words so full of wisdom.

If you love, you no more see through the eyes. You see what really matters in life and you see it through the heart. Because if heart is full of love, it sees everything and hugs everything. It accepts everything with humility. It doesn't care about the hows or the whys.

Love mantles every man on earth with affectionateness and simplicity. One loving look is capable of changing the heart!
