Take a few deep breaths. Shift focus to the feeling of your breath against the upper most area of your sinuses, as air flows through it. Notice how warm if feels, and how much you enjoy noticing how warm it feels with each exhale. Feels good. That’s right.
Our minds are capable of focus on a maximum of seven elements of sensory input at once, in a constant sea of sensory events competing for our attention. Messages of love are actions of love, having been sent with the most powerful and resonant agent for influencing the manifestations we will have experienced through the five senses.
Communication between humans can be visualized as a pie, with words accounting for 7%, the medium of choice, the cadence, tone and rhythm of delivery take another 10-15%, and the remainder composed by various, subtle elements of body language, which signal the unconscious parts of your mind instructing you to be in rapport.
Love is willing the good of the other as other. - Bishop Robert Barron. Still reflecting on this, but it clearly focuses our attention outside of ourselves to the other. It's a conscious orientation, decision really, to the other. We love them for who they are not who we want them to be. The comments below regarding love reminded me of this thought from Bishop Barron.
What an excellent use of Turing‘s code breaking work as an analogy for „breaking the code of life“. Very helpful and clever. Looking forward to tomorrow‘s post and the start of your exploration of Marcus Aurelius‘ Meditations.
