“Love comes with a knife, not some shy question, and not with fears for its reputation! You’ve been walking the ocean’s edge, holding up your robes to keep them dry. You must dive naked under, and deeper under, a thousand times deeper! Love flows down. The ground submits to the sky and suffers what comes. Tell me, is the earth worse for giving in like that? Don’t put blankets over the drum! Open completely”!
Rumi
This relates to one of the InfiniteĀ Love Principles: Infinite Lovers act in spite of fear. People without love let fear stop them.
