i cant shrug the notion that humans are missing something about love: a self must be centered around itself to be itself. love inverts this relationship such that the more selfless one is, the more part of a center one becomes. the balance between self and center is maintained; the self is no longer centered around itself but is centered around

"It was here that nature finally yielded its secret to me in a simple, still moment in which I saw how it all worked. God or life[love]was not in anything. It was just the reverse; everything was in God. And we were not in God[love] like drops of water that could be separated from the sea, but more like . . . well, the only thing I could think of was the notion of trying to pinch out a spot on an inflated balloon; if you pinch out a spot and try to cut it off, the whole thing will pop because it can't be done. You can't separate anything from God[love], for as soon as you let go of the notion of separateness, everything falls back into the wholeness of God[love] and life." -Bernadette Roberts
