This one love. Now this one.

:- Doug.

This is the difference between having lots to do and doing something significant, something worth pouring your life out for. This is the difference between normal family chatter and meaningful talk. It is the difference between “business after hours” cocktail talk and really conversing. This is why I say we have never talked like this: because we have not yet used up our last full measure of ourselves. Living our deepest and fullest means getting outside our own skin, doing something for beyond your little self. Are we living our deepest and fullest?

So it is that we must love others till they live their deepest and fullest.

So it is that we discover our fullest and deepest lives are in living larger than ourselves.

We do not do this then to prove a point, nor to win others over: we do this because we love.

:- Doug.

You’re getting older: are you getting more used up?

:- Doug.

What do you want? You can see to it.

:- Doug.

Love them till they live their deepest and fullest—and then you see you are too.
