Triadic Love

With so many distorted versions of what love is, one is left wondering if the future holds more hope. Might “Love for Sale” be ready for the scrap heap? But of course, far too many don’t even know love has become a commodity for human bondage. Yet…. “Your heart and my heart are very, very old friends. - Hafiz Pic Tara Lesher”

Triadic Love

What works?

What doesn’t?

AI android anyone?

No need

For

Basic human logic proffers

Equal give

Equates with

Equal take

The tree and flower give

We take

Some of us give back in return

Be it mulch

Irrigation

Cultivation

Animals give trust

We often betray

They are patient

Innocence caresses the heart

So it is with Man

Heart gives

Mind takes

Respect mutualizes

Love’s yin and yang awaken

Honesty

Lifetime Guarantee

No super-natural programming needed

If one assumes we mammals all contain some similarities in our DNA. Just nurturing our young to adulthood requires love. But once we reach a way to manipulate our environment, we can fake it, buy it and sell it. Detach ourselves from the reality of what love originally means taking care of our offspring until they can care for themselves. If we can't remain mammalian in our interactions, I guess we will have to let AI do it for us.

Wisdom abounding as usual, Odin! I hold these words dearly. If we continue to "take" and not "give back"..........well, that's pure stupidity. Write on!

Love ya!

Jimi Hendrix suggested: "When the power of love overcomes the love of power, the world will know peace." There's (some) truth in that. Treating others the way we want to be treated is golden. We rise in life by lifting others. Enjoyed the threads of wisdom in your words Odinsan. Peace.... rlc
