  • You need to read the Greek philosophical work by Plato, it’s called ‘Symposium’. Plato theorised that each of our souls has a twin somewhere in the world, and you rarely encounter it. It’s not about ‘romantic love’, because as we all know the opposite of love isn’t hate, the opposite ...

  • Part Two of Two My interpretation of love, and gleaned from what I have read through the years, love is a term that has been inextricably linked to romantic endeavour, which obscures its real power. In that it has the power to absolutely heal and restore. And it’s opposite is ...

  • Hey Douglas. It’s interesting you would equate the word peace to monthly living expenses, having ‘enough, what you ‘have’ or don’t ‘have. You come into the world with nothing, and when we die who wants to be the richest guy in the graveyard? I expect you mean like peace of ...
