Love is the Mystery that Binds Us

We are all bound together by love. We might not always feel it or know it but there is an invisible force that connects us all. When we recognize this force, everything

seems to work out. When we recognize our love connection we see the world with happiness and joy and if anyone is suffering we see this with eyes of love and compassion.

Joe the Garbageman: You mean I am connected to my garbage?

Well, yes you are connected to everything and your garbage is a part of everything.

Joe: So, the love is in those old broken toys that were thrown out.

Yes.

Joe: And the love is in the dog stuff my shoe stepped on.

Yes.

Joe: Then why do my wife and I keep fighting all of the time if we are connected by love?

Well, I guess depends what the fight is about, but you can bet that underneath the surface of the fight the love is there.

Joe: I don’t know about that. What about when I want to watch football on TV and my wife wants to watch some reality show about running around in the jungle dressed in nothing but peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. I mean I like peanut butter and jelly too, but not when people are wearing it. Gross, I say! Gross.

Well, that is not the point…

Joe’s wife: Are you talking about me again and my shows?

Joe: I was just talking about that reality show where they are wearing peanut butter and jelly.

Joe’s wife: They are not wearing peanut and jelly. They are wearing cashew butter and bananas.

Joe: Well that is worse! And the author of this blog is saying that love connects everything. I don’t see the love in that?

Joe’s wife: I don’t see the love in a bunch of grown men fighting over a ball!

Joe: Yeah, you would rather see them fighting over a banana dipped in jelly.

We are all connected by love and if we learn to tune into that love then we could see the love connection in everything, and we could then enjoy everything from a new perspective, because we realize that we are never alone, but always connected.

Joe: Do you know what this guy is talking about?

Joe’s wife: I think he needs to watch more TV. Why don’t we go and watch that show that we both like? Bowling in the jungle with ketchup on our bowling balls.

Joe: I love you honey. Let’s go!

Joe’s wife: I love you too.

And this proves that point that we are all connected by love…

Joe and his wife: Shut up!

They must be from New York. New Yorkers express their love in a different way than the rest of the world, but it is love all the same. And so, remember…Love will the mystery that binds us.

Joe: And peanut butter will be the cream that delights us! So says I Joe the plumber!

Joe: I’m with you hubby!
