Love and empathy, manifested through our lives, are more precious and rare than diamonds and gold.
Sometimes, we must mine deeply for them. But if we dig far enough, we will find them, waiting to be discovered and realized and shared.
Love and empathy, forces more powerful than any other in the universe.
No force can stop or destroy love and empathy.
Even death, itself, cannot obliterate love and empathy: when a person dies, the love and empathy felt and realized and shared by that person lives on in the lives of those who were gifted those most precious of all riches.
And so on, and so on, and so on, and it never ends. . .

A life lived without expressing or receiving love and empathy is just a span of empty space. I wouldn’t want that!
Me, either! It takes a lot of effort to completely avoid love and empathy!
Janet, this is so special. Yesterday, another blogger left a comment on my post explaining the subtle powers of “the butterfly effect”…a very high level math/meteorology concept that she explains can have social dynamic powers/applications, too. I wasn’t aware of theory. I think love and empathy travel, spread, continue through that type of butterfly effect dynamic…I think their effects are eternal.
Thanks, Kathy! Yes, isn’t it amazing how we set things into perpetual motion?
Beautiful and inspiring. I agree, love and empathy are more precious than diamond , gold, or even money. It is one thing we all should strive for. If we all do, this world would be a world where people will be truly happy and at peace. Yes, love and empathy survives death. It’s legacy is timeless and lives on to inspires others to do the same. Thanks.
Thanks for coming along on my journeys–I certainly enjoy going along on your colorful adventures!!!
Beautifully expressed! What I call a gem of Truth. Love never dies and it’s the only reason why we are in this universe. I am exploring Love as an energy and it’s potential for healing. Have across some amazing stories.
There are so many stories, aren’t there? Thanks, Marie!
