love

Love, like truth, is the unassailable defense.

- Diane Ackerman

what can i say about this? i think it's fairly self-explanatory. love cannot be argued with. you cannot tell it that it is being irrational. you cannot say that its principles are unsound. you cannot say that it is wrong. ever.

love creates an open heart and mind. it puts a smile on your face and a spring in your step and makes the world a beautiful place to be. and with that sheer joy of living comes a sort of armor against the slings and arrows of outrageous fate, if you will. simple contentment is a better defense against what life throws at you than anything else i can think of.

open up your heart and smile at the world. it'll smile back. believe me.
