%FALLING LOVE GOD RISK TRUST BALANCE MUTUALITY+990607
%SECURITY VULNERABILITY 990607
Falling in love is both risky and exhilarating
because:
1. As suggested by the word "falling", the process
is NOT dominated by those who are "falling" being in full
control.
2. Yet, when people are truly falling in Love ---
they find that it is possible for them to be both
vulnerable and therein to enjoy true security which is the
freedom to be safely vulnerable with each other in Love
and humility.
3. The process of falling in Love is dynamic; rather
than boringly stable, ordered, systematic, planned, etc.
4. Participants do not know exactly where: they
are going to, moving toward, likely to arrive, going to
end up.
5. Through profound dedications to balance,
mutuality and honesty --- participants discover wonderful
ways to enjoy being in each other's presence in
cooperation --- free of disintegrative collusive games of
mutual self deception.
6. Rather than wasting energy and resources in
futile contentiousness --- people learn to invest energy
and resources in coherent, integrative and joyful
cooperative activities.
7. Peacemakers show the way to enjoy shalom; rather
than plan and prepare for: threats,
coercions, manipulations and violence --- which lead to
personal and communal disintegrations.
8. Through prudently cooperating in taking
incrementally greater risks --- people discover ways to
engender incrementally greater levels of trust and
security.
9. Love becomes written instinctively in hearts,
attitudes and approaches to each other --- rather than
imprisoned in increasingly complicated commandments
being written in additional volumes of law-books,
judicial cases, and occasions of excommunication.
10. God is Love.
Technocrats cannot find much of value in these
considerations; because they are preoccupied with issues
of control and the technologies which they hope will lead
to glorious success in being in control --- and so
achieving superiority over those people and things which
they fear.
