What does love have to do with reality?

Updated: Jan 19

I previously blogged about the two realities (in this blog post: https://www.god-thefather.com/post/what-does-love-do). In this blog, we’ll consider that the true reality, the underlying reality is always love. Let’s consider it a theory instead of a fact. It’s something we can feel more than we can prove.


Some of the greatest stories ever told ultimately are love stories. The entirety of the Bible is a love story that encompasses the entire human race. The Star Wars stories are founded on Darth Vader who became who he was because of love. Even the story of Dracula is founded on a warrior’s love for a lady.


Whether true or fiction, great stories often have a foundation in love. If not romantic love, it’s familial love, love of self, love of an idea. In other words, the best stories are a result of someone acting out the act of love in pursuit of an idea. Maybe they don’t call it love, but something drives them to do what they do. It lives in their heart. And anything born of the heart is ultimately loved.


What I’m trying to say is that love is what our true reality is. We don’t even have to believe in love. We can cast it aside like it doesn’t even matter, but yet, it pervades all things. It’s there. Love is always there. I have this daydream that if each of us can grasp the idea of love our whole world will transform. But in general, societies have twisted the idea of love. It’s not an easy idea or feeling to explain with words. The best way I can describe love is that it lets go. “True love lets go.”


True love doesn’t cling to personal ideas, societal pressures, ego, traditions, even history. True love is transformative within an individual. It allows a person to become more than what they are in the moment. A person who dedicates their life to love is open to all views, all circumstances, all ways of life, and all ways of coping with life. True love is on the move, it’s never stagnant, it’s always evolving so that love can be expressed in its truest and freshest form.


Love underlies reality in ways that we can’t even fully fathom. We can grasp it from time to time, but the “reality” of life dominates and we fall back into familiar ways of thinking and acting. But love, as it is, in all its expanse and depth can truly bring healing to the individual and to the world. We have to allow it too. We have to observe it, notice it, allow it to pierce our thoughts. That’s when our reality begins to shift and change for the better.
