The Greeks had a better understanding of love than we do. They had at least seven words for love, according to the variety of love one was talking about - much like the Inuit have many words for snow. If something is central to life, you build a vocabulary for it.

Distribute love like a bee distributes pollen and surely it will grow into something beautiful.
