For some time Ive sought to center my identity around love. Love, as I perceive it,
is the unifying string in the seemingly diverse areas of study that I commit my time
to. Love is who I am outside of preference, opinion, and prejudice. It is the greatest
spiritual reality that I care to wonder about.
Its likely that my professional life will involve one or both of these fields, and in
considering the possibilities presented to me as a young man I will soon have to
make an important decision regarding my future path. In considering my options, I
can only say that I hope to find myself in a situation that will let me most easily
give my love to other living beings, things, and spaces. I love humans and I want to
work with them. In deciding on a career I feel that the most important decision I
must make will be how I want to do this.
I will love especially when I am with others. In loving others I discover more about
myself and expand my capacity for good. I will love when I wash dishes and when I
sit down. My nature is love, I can work to build my love even in the absence of
others. In this way, I can work at love. My literal and figurative heart is a muscle,
both can be exercised.
I will eventually die, and then I might realize that all Ive ever been and all that has
ever mattered has been love.
