| BkI:16.VI.1 | Realize, daughters and sons of eternal goodness, that you have created eros and thereby ignited the painful fires of passion, or you have hoped to endure the lacerating boredom of a meaningless life, a life lived in ordinariness, an overwhelmingly tedious life that plunged you into a deep fear of yourself. Children of God, you have the right to leave that meaningless life now and forever. You have the right to live an extraordinary life. But beloved of the highest, only love will make your life extraordinary—as it is with us and with God Himself. Come now to love. Change your life in the only way that makes sense, that of returning to the arms of love. |
