To love is not limited to another human existence. 

To love is expanded into every category of life itself, and the depths of what life has to offer.

To love is to feel the life inside of yourself and be able to set this free into the world you're surrounded by. 

To truly love is to truly know yourself and your capacity for happiness.

Because at the end of the day, to love is to pour your heart into another being, another creation under the same star-filled sky. 

And once you open yourself up to the way of freeing love, the world will love you back.
