when I hear the phrase, "love life" I think of all those I ever loved in any way whatsoever. I still love all those I ever loved, however distant in time or acceptability --- and I may fear the animal nature in humanity or doubt the capacity in us to discern what love is, but I am also still human, and while I love this wavering humanity, I too know to fear what the animal in us will do to outlive, outshine a neighboring tribe... so, you might ask how does one continue to love all those one ever loved in any way!? That is quite simple... you just never shut your heart to the need of love and all at once you realize that what ever love you gave was not in vain. It served its purpose at that time. But now your task is to widen your aim, spread your love more indiscriminately... if you expect to be loved in the general sense of humanity, you must love all yourself.
