To give up on love is to choose a life that is less than human. To give up on love is to give up on life.
What is the danger of loving nothing?
Have you asked yourself, Is there anyone who really cares? And your conclusion is, NO. So you decide to join them. You’re not going to care either. You’re not going to feel any more hurt.
We are created for relationship. We are born for community. For us to be healthy, we must be a part of others. Independence is one thing; isolation is another. The more we live disconnected lives, the more we become indifferent to the well-being of others.
Two teenage boys planned for over a year to ruthlessly massacre as many students and teachers at Columbine High School as possible.
The two boys had given up on love. They no longer considered themselves a part of the community. They cared for no one and cared about no one, not even themselves. Where there is no love, there is no value for life. When hate consumes our hearts, all we can think of, all we desire, is to destroy.
The human heart was not created to be a container for hate.
When we allow bitterness, jealousy, envy, racism, lust, greed, and arrogance to fuel our souls, we create an environment within us to be agents of violence.
