ORIGINAL: Tinkerer quote:
ORIGINAL: OttersSwim Service is Love made manifest... I'd agree, or as I was going to say- Love is a verb. You can serve without loving, but you cannot love without serving in one way or another. Even a dominant serves their own by leading, using, and caring for them. I disagree with this statement simply because to truely serve one must have the passion... lest it is called by some other nomenclature. But you are allowed to disagree if you wish. quote:
but you cannot love without serving in one way or another. Even a dominant serves their own by leading, using, and caring for them. I wholeheartedly agree with this statement. ---- I would like to go out on a limb here and state that I believe people are attracted to love, and by proxy some sort of servitude whether it is leading people, being lead, helping those less fortunate, or some other circumstance. ------ Going back to quote:
You can serve without loving if a painter hates his job but loves his wife and two kids... is that not a form of service? This may be counter to what I have said previous. I am human and thus bound to err. :D Thank You all who have participated so far.
