We have conceded the idea that in order to grow as a human being we need to be learning.  We make room for it with children or when acquiring a new skill in adulthood.  We allow it in classrooms and discussions.  Life is busy teaching us the design of love and how it works all along the way.  When we open our eyes to the teachings of love we realize we can learn it from everyone and everything.  At any interval, we can ask ourselves: What am I learning about love in this situation?  Where is the presence of love in this person?  How do I accept myself when all I feel is pain and contempt for the circumstances I am in?  How could I possibly bring love into this relationship, job, circumstance, and so on?  All of our moments from breath to breath are life teaching us about the capacity and diversity of love.  We are designed to grow in learning about love so if it were to only take place in a given experience with certain people (i.e. a house of worship, a specific book, or a spiritual medium) we would be very limited. God is not limited, therefore God’s teachings on love are found in every crook and cranny of the universe.  Our job is to open our eyes to see and feel how we are being taught of love.  Often it is the least likely person, place or thing we would imagine teaching us anything about love which moves our hearts the most. It is the walking through recovering from childhood incest, working with challenging personalities at work, the desire to find a place of peace and freedom in my own body which I vilified for many years and seeking reconciliation for long wounded relationships where I have found my teachings on love which reached me deep within.
