Although love has not been elevated to the status of "the hard problem" in science as yet, the full story of it and the part that the heart plays has yet to be unveiled in the greater scientific arena. Love seems to fall more into the domain of mystics, poets, writers, and theologians who describe it in many ways. After all is said and done, it appears all we are left with are metaphors of something so indescribably delicious that it baffles our imaginations even to begin to define it in a cosmic context.I hope to bring a fresh look at the many dimensions of love and how it affects our bodies, minds, brains, chemistry, connections, relationships, and the world around us. In short, I hope to simplify love in an easily digestible way that will both inspire us and connect us. We are all we have.I seek to explore ways to engage this ever-expanding presence of love that has the innate power to influence both the past and the future through a joyful experience of becoming more fully human (Anthrops, Greek), bringing meaning, purpose, and yes, love into all areas of our life.Most of us know what it feels like to be in love and be loved, and how it helps this world to be a better place. Love is a place of intimacy, of caring for and knowing another deeply. Social researcher Brene Brown says that "it is hard to hate someone when you are up close to them. We are hardwired to be connected". So maybe we just need to be intimate with each other, get to know each other's stories. Learn how we share more in common with each other than we are different. Brown adds, "We belong to each other and this can never be lost, but it can be forgotten." Maybe all we need are reminders.There is an energy in the world, a spark, an electricity that everything is plugged into. The Greeks called it zoe, the mystics call it “Spirit,” and Obi-Wan called it “the force.” — Rob Bell, Love WinsWe just call it Love.
