• A comment on Conversation: Love vs. Connecting

  Mar 25 2011: Connecting somehow seems larger than life. Love is more personal, a tad selfish when looked at as romantic love. But unconditional love is something else and probably higher than mere connecting. Yes, one needs to have an emotional connect with friends and the people we interact with, a 'smiling' connect with our daily aquaintances and the strangers we meet...i guess connection happens on multiple levels, but love is more intense and as you said, is to do with worrying about someone and their lives without really wondering about what you may get in return or if the same feeling is reciprocated or not. Some folks may term this kind of love compassion...:)
