“Love her in love, in labour, and in fight, As if she were a song at heaven’s portal… Love her with all your heart and all your might, And with her glory we shall be immortal.” – From the poem Love Ukraine by Volodymyr Sosiura (1944)
So much hurt, so much worry and fear. The golden heart yearns for peace, for ease. Why to fight, why to blame and shame. Why not just LOVE, rather than compete.
Where do you find peace? In the woods? Amidst the clouds? In your room? In the garden? In the moment? In your prayers?
