Legal notice: this has nothing to do with anyone I know! It’s a fucking poem! The definition of disappointment is simple. It is a feeling we have when someone or something behaves in a way we did not expect, or do not like. Seems to me that disappointment arises when we start to believe that…

John and Paul were right. All you need is love. The Beatles, not the apostles. To know unbounded love must be heavenly. Love that does not limit, inhibit, or prescribe. Why do we struggle so with it? When we love someone, we want to change them, make them something else! This is not love, but…
