Decomposing Love

Can you truly love a rock, you've never directly seen or touched, or some other relatively inanimate object, like a steel wall, or ego-centrism? If so, then how is your "love" different from a whimsical "appreciate you"? If not, then what is different between your "love" and your "co-passions"? Compassion, passion with and toward, but not passionate energy returned from Other necessarily, or, Yes! Necessarily!? How do you know your love is also co-passion, reiterated and returned, however un-equivalently expressed it may be? Is this not a matter of positive faith, of unconditional co-invested hope? That boundary-free time between Other's stimulus and your response, before and after, subjective anticipating felt objectives, identity refined through co-relationship, in an environ-mental healthy cause that is, by effective default, setting aside mutual immunity barriers, to more courageously and opportunistically co-habitate, curiously co-integrate, co-passioning environ-mental love Rather than fear, anger, anxiety, apathy, all dissonance settings of negatively felt default, oppressive to self, suppressive of Other's natural integrity Tipping pointed barometer of active curiosity toward positive values of win/win strategic opportunity Edging out double-binding mind/body spirit/nature ego/eco Self/Other disvalues of two passively negative non-risk takers, hoarding against a co-passionate future more contentedly resilient than a contentious ally of death-defying Me v We Yang v Yin +PolyNomial v -(-PolyPathic) hopeless despair, unpaired negativity.
