the path of love

On the path of love there is not so much wrong and right in the moral sense, so much as what is wrong or right for you. The mind cannot help so much here. Only the heart can speak such truths. The mind may reject it, recoil, analyze and find all the reasons why the simple truth - the right choice of the heart - cannot possibly work and only lead to pain. That is why the mind does rather well, actually. But it doesn't mean the right choice - the heart choice - becomes incorrect. It means rather, that the heart has outsmarted the mind, and the mind will need to bow to the heart, even without understanding its sometimes impenetrable mysteries. Or one can choose to stay in inner conflict, fighting against the right choice, but eventually love will prevail and the way forward must be taken.
