The primary lesson to learn in life is to love. Love is so strong that it is unbreakable, and yet it is intangible. You can know it; you can feel it; and yet you cannot hold on to it; tor as soon as you try, it will slip away like quicksilver. Love cannot be possessed; it is as free as the wind and moves where it will. Move with it. Love is unity and wholeness. Love knows no limitation, no barriers. With love comes freedom. It is fear that binds and limits a soul; it is love that frees and cuts away all bonds. Love opens all doors, changes lives and melts the hardest of hearts. Love is creative; it builds up, creating beauty, harmony and oneness. It works for, not against, anything. Love brings such joy that it cannot be repressed. It dances and sings through life. Is there love in your heart? Love for each other? It starts in you and works out and out.

　　人生中最首要的課程就是學習去愛。

　　愛是如此地強大，它是堅定不移的，然而它也是不可觸碰的。我可以知曉它；我可以感受它；然而我無法抓住它；因為一旦我試圖這樣去做，它就會像水銀一樣蒸發。愛無法被佔有；它如同風一般自由，去到它想去的地方。與它一起流動。

　　愛是統一，愛是完整。愛不存在侷限與障礙。與愛一同到來的是自由。是恐懼和約束侷限了一個靈魂；是愛釋放和斬斷了所有的羈絆。愛打開了所有的大門，改變了生命，融化了最堅硬的內心。

　　愛是富有創造力的；它積累起來，創造美、和諧與合一。它為任何事物運作，而不是針對它們。愛帶來愉悅，這一點無法被抑制。它在生命中載歌載舞。

　　在我們的心中有愛嗎？對彼此的愛？它從我開始，然後再不斷向外運作。
