Love is my final option

Ironically, sometimes when we feel there is no place for us in this world, we choose to live a life of isolation and disconnectedness.
You've asked yourself the question over and over again, 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?l going to ¿icare either. You're not going to feel hurt.
Sometimes we take this so far that that we decide the only way not to feel pain is to inflict it.
Contact with the real world - its not optional; its essential. We are created for relationship. We are born for community. Independence is one thing,; isolation is another. The more we live disconnected lives, the more we become indifferent to the well-being of others.
The farther we move from community, the closer we move to violence.
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. .
When there is disengagement from human co!mumity, there is the potential for inhumanity.
The human heart was not created to be a container for hate
When we allow bitterness, jealousy, envy, racism, greed, and arrogance to fuel our souls, we create an environment within us to be agents of violence.
How many of us are walking around with fuses already lit? With the danger of oversimplifying, you are a danger to the world when you love nothing.
When there is a vacuum of love within your soul, hate, bitterness, envy, and racism rush to fill the empty space.
There is a dramatic difference between fanaticism and love. Fanaticism justifies and defines who you hate. Love embraced and leaves no room for violence.
What happens inside a human being for an ideology to become more important than a human life?
Even those of us who disdain violence at every level could understand. Using force to protect the innocent.
We stand in the midst of human dilemma. We long for community; we long to belong; we long for love. Yet what we long for most we seem incapable of sustaining. Humanity has no natural. Predators except each other. We are safer in the jungle than in the city. We are our worst enemies.
