Hate-Love Relationship

Where we embrace love, Grief is as strong as death; love lost. Where we are afflicted with hate, Gratitude is as strong as death; loss wished for. Grief rages against loss, Yet gratitude lost can become violently angered, terrorist frightened of present and future as past's reincarnate vulnerable pain. Grief begins felt in solitary vulnerability. Gratitude eventually heals through transparently shared solidarity. Love is as strong as mortality's vulnerable weakness. No more, no less, as these merge into one healing face of gratitude for co-relational gain more than mere mutual absence of pain. Habitual love, Earth-inhabiting resonant life, Eco-regenerativity as strong as Ego-relationality. Together, ego/eco-passion.
