Speaking of hearts, We've just started studying Frankl in class who I must say i really like and am enjoying his theories. It's so nice to be studying things I'm actually interested in and care about. Its a long road to being a counsellor but I'm enjoying my travels so far. Frankl has said ''The salvation of man is through love and in love.'' which made me think of one of my life quotes “Ultimately love is everything.” as said by M. Scott Peck.
On the whole love heart and quotes subject Ive got one more that I've been thinking of the last few days. I came across this mans quote in Hereford Cathedral (strange right?). The quote on a poster that caught my eye was ''You are as prone to love as the sun is to shine'' which for some unknown reason stuck with me until i googled it. I found Thomas Traherne had said this. He was an English poet and religious writer who was educated in Hereford. I decide to read more on him and found another quote that has become one of my favourites ''Love is the true means by which the world is enjoyed: our love to others, and others love to us.''God I hope I dont sound like a sap! For those who know me ye will know that couldn't be further from the truth! :). I just value the importance of love in our lives. Wether it be your love for music or for your dog or your best friends.
Is life without love really life at all?
