“…Love should
grow up like a wild iris, but doesn’t, it comes from
the midst of everything else, sees like the iris
of an eye, when the light is right,
feels in blindness and when there is nothing else is
tender, blinks, and opens
face up to the skies. “
—Susan Griffin
What opens your eyes to love?
Opening MY eye(s) to love seems to jump out at me when I see something special in the EYES of another. That way there is recognition of a reciprocity there that encourages more to come. Sparkly eyes, with a curiosity showing through, engage me to make my mind respond in the same way. I’m not sure which comes first…the other or mine. However, it’s an amazing , sometimes immediate way of deep communication.
