Everything Posted December 6, 2016 (edited) I don't think courage is dangerous, as it often includes a person doing the right thing in a given situation, which seem more beneficial than not. However, since we're talking about "little love" Here's a quote by Paul de Leeuw, a comedian, singing about little love, translated into English by DreamlandGirl: I don't know if you're waitingfor a kind word from meif I recall you in my mindit makes me many little bits happyI feel it when I see you sittingwhen I only smell youit's in a hundred thousand butterfliesthat are floating sweetly in my stomachI love you all my lifeIt's much more than liking you It's as if it's in my bloodas if I cannot live without youyour lovely eyes make me meltthey put me on fireI feel it just when seeing youI get it from my home town as wellI love you, I love you, I love youwhat should I do without youIt's three tiny wordsand even though it scares me a bitI love you, four seasons longI feel it often when you get upor after a summer rainI'm all soft at the thoughtof you walking around in my favorite sweaterIt's my hand that you suddenly grabif I'm biking next to youit is also, that's the crazy thing,even because of nothingI love you, I love you, I love youwhat should I do without youIt's three tiny wordsand even though it scares me a bitI love you, fourteen flower parades longI taste it when we kissor when you suddenly laughI see it in shooting starsafter intense lovemaking in the nightIt's that tingle, that breezethat makes you all mineI think when I see you walking byGod, there's an angel passingI love you, I love you, I love youwhat should I do without youIt's three tiny wordsand even though it scares me a bitI love you, a thousand and one nightsone of my best dreamsis to grow old, the two of usthat it may come trueI love you even after the retirementI love youwhat should I do without youIt's three tiny wordsand even though it scares me a bitI love you, hundred four Christmas trees longI love you, I love youmy whole life.

Aetherous Posted December 6, 2016 (edited) Coincidentally, I've been contemplating those same words lately.Seems to me like any lack in courage is the direct cause of a lack of love. For instance, think of a typical high school scenario...you see a kid getting picked on and beat up by a group of strong bullies. Do you speak up and risk getting pummeled yourself? A lack of courage causes injustice to flourish, and your love is silenced by fear. And courage (facing something you are averse to, doing something you're scared of) has its root in genuine love...why else would a person dive into the dragon's mouth, but to save the village?In another thread, I came to the conclusion that truth is one of the foundations of love. I'd also say that courage must be there, too. Edited December 6, 2016 by Aetherous 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The hero fights the dragon, to die, and be reborn as a warrior who knows his limits. Hence you never hear about a hero who's of old age ;P A hero always gets the woman, but doesn't know what to do with her, so the story ends there. To be honest, love is a fast moving wave, need very good balance to ride that wave. Clean pure fast vibration, true self, super efficient. I used to be able, for a while, but fell hard, messed up big time. Intense out there on the leading edge, great fun tho intense.
