Ever read "The Garden of Truth"?
Amazing book thus far, as I delve further into it, my mind seems to keep growing more open and larger... hahha...
Well, thank you Syed Hussain Nasr, his words are truly eye-opening.
I am writing because I feel the itch, I know I won't be able to satiate it unless I say something. So allow me a few moments of your time.
I have realized, thanks to Nasr, that any love one feels towards anyone or anything, is a version, an attempt at, an innate desire to love God. We all have this yearning to love someone or something.
I loved my cat, I had a burning desire to please and love her. Now I realize, because of this love, I know how to love my God, and that my love for her was really a way for me to learn how to express my love for Him.
Not to belittle my love for my cat at all... it's just that... in this temporal realm, isn't it better to love the infinite? Then again... are we all not infinite?
Before you start calling me a blasphemer.... please think about it for a moment, then call me one.
Enjoy your day!
