Yes indeedy the big existential questions, that seem complex but when all is peeled away it comes down, as you say Deb, to love. Thicht Naht Hahn says love is about understanding, so it becomes even simpler because we can all understand, can't we? We can try to understand even if we do not agree. The meaning of life, what is to be achieved between being born and dying, for me is about finding meaning within it. Trying to understand is trying to find meaning so there is love in it. Being able to love and find meaning, if I did not have those two things then, at age 63, I think I would not have worked hard enough on the important things. Happy days, Doctor. :) x
