What is love that
Though King Solomon had hundreds of wives and mistresses,
he loves only the Shulamite maiden, until he became lovesick.
What is love that
Our heavenly Daddy and Jesus left all those innumerable children in heaven,
To love even unto death the lowly, shabby earthly children?
Love, Love, Love.
What is love?
No matter how much one ponders upon it, love remains a mystery.
This love is as deep and propound as God Himself.
This mysterious love is what only God possesses and thus only springs from God.
Why do both God and man become powerless and helpless
to this love, and become dragged by it?
Why do both God and man, before this love, weep, laugh,
and suffer loss, become humiliated, and still continue to love
even at the risk of losing their own lives?
And yet only this love can bring such a perfect joy and
happiness to God, man, and the whole universe.
Love is a mystery,
Love is profound,
Love is fragrant and sweet.
Love is an immeasurable happiness.
Love is a strange sickness.
Because both God and man begin to think and act strangely,
when encaptured by this sickness.
Love is a happy sickness.
Because both God and man are happily tormented with happiness,
when inflicted by this sickness.
Love is an insane sickness.
Because both God and man, once inflicted with this disease,
forget their own position, honor, and dignity,
and wander in madness.
Love is an incurable sickness.
Because there is no medicine to cure it,
neither in heaven nor on earth.
Love is an easily curable sickness.
Because if you find and meet the one you love,
you will be easily cured right away.
