Love what's in front of you

"...the best chance to be whole is to love whatever gets in the way, until it ceases to be an obstacle." (page 13, Mark Nepo, The Book of Awakening)

Or, as he says a page later: "Touch what is before you, giving your love a way out."

I don't know what's in front of you, or what you feel is an obstacle to you. But, I think Nepo's advice, to love what is in front of you, could change everything. Nothing touched by love ever stays the same. Either you or it will be changed by this force.

Let love find a way out - of you.
