“Martin Luther King, Jr. called for us to be lovestruck with each other, not colorblind toward each other. To be lovestruck is to care, to have deep compassion, and to be concerned for each and every individual, including the poor and vulnerable.” — Cornel West
Ever since I read this quote, I have embraced the concept of being lovestruck. I have been reflecting on the importance of being lovestruck by everything with which I share the precious resource of my time. That is how I live my life in a spiritually grounded way. That is how I make all of my work love made visible, following the sentiment of Kahlil Gibran. There is a power that accompanies love. I can't do anything beautiful or true without it.
