What is it?

cause and effect, is the first thing to come to mind when I try to list the smilarities of logic and intuition, because I was explaining to my kids that they ought to seek wisdom and not just being smart. I tried to explain the difference between the two, It was not difficult because I uderstood clearly the difference myself. I thought of how great my dissapointmets were because lack of a thing I called integrity but now think it is love, which elluded me because I never undestood what love was anyway, I just used it to blanket the things I could not understand, a thing I often thought to myself was "God is Love". i could not quite understand what I was really talking about and how it was revealed to anyone or even why it mattered and every train of thought ended in sex which I understood exactly to not be love, but an appendage of it, like coughing is to having a cold.

I have mentioned it may times, but the best explination of how sex was related to love was explained in the TV series "Bones" when Seely Booth explain it as when two are so completely in love that they want so badly to occupy the same person. sex is an attempt.

My mother wrote an email to me long ago where she explained that love is sort off the basis for our entire existance, very deep. That is my mom for ya. She taught so much by example, she has more integrity than most living souls. She also taught that there is both a literal and symbolic meaning to all things. My best friend and I used to joke that there was not anything worth saying unless it could be intended in more than one way. ha ha it seems like we were saying things ought to be easily misunderstood as well as understood or why bother.

so why love seems both unecessary and all encompassing is to pick apart the dual nature of man`s existance Love is both logical and intuitive, and to only explain it one was i to not be wrongand still not right. I will explain that one with a proverb or stoy about 3 blind men who were going to document what an elephant honestly was to those who wanted to know. the first felt his foot and leg and described what he knew by experience, the second found an ear and described what an elephant seemed to be from his experience. then, the last grabbed ahold of the trunk and had aa completely different impression of what a snake-like creature this elephant thing was. This is how it is nearly impossible to understand what love is although every one is right, they seem incompatible like, ok, which one is right?
