There are different levels of love. Superficial love is constituted of motivations for the limited self. That limited self is what was learned (from miseducation) and it is primarily unreal, unintelligent, and fictitious.
There is a profound love that exists beyond the illusory framework of the self. It is a vast intelligence that breaks through the limitations of boundaries and fragmentary, learned perceptions (including the distance that is, in actuality, inherited ignorance). Selfless love is of bright truth, not of shady falsity and erroneousness.
Spiny Puffball Mushrooms … Photo by Thomas Peace c. 2022
My Blog primarily consists of close-up nature photos (that I've taken locally) combined with original holistic-truth oriented prose and/or poetry involving mindfulness/awareness. I love nature and I love understanding the whole (not merely the parts and the details). I'm a retired teacher of the multiply handicapped.
I have a number of interesting hobbies, such as fossil collecting, sport-kite flying, 3D and 2D close-up photography, holography, and pets. Most of all, I am into holistic self-awareness, spontaneous insight, unconventional observation/direct perception, mindfulness, meditation, world peace, non-fragmentation, population control, vegetarianism, and green energy.

I love this Tom – Selfless love is of bright truth, not of shady falsity and erroneousness. What a big and misguided difference between that and selfish/superficial love. Great message my friend. Oh, and I love your photo. I have never seen a mushroom so pretty! Cheers my friend. 🍄🍄🍄

Yes, selfless love, Kym! 😊 And so many of us cling to the self (and are so afraid to go beyond it)… which is unintelligent. 😉
There you go Tom! Exactly! 🤗💖😊

The mushroom looks touchable Tom – like it might be soft and squishy like a marshmallow. It is an amazing shot.
Yes, Linda, the mushroom is soft and pliable, unlike a lot of people who are hardened in their beliefs and suppositions.
😉
Wow, what a cool mushroom!
