“For one human being to love another; that is perhaps the most difficult of our tasks; the ultimate, the last test and proof; the work for which all other work is but preparation.” -Rainer Maria Rilke
This quote has been on my mind in recent weeks. I can’t help but think it’s true…after all, people are different and challenging and motivating and wonderful, and often all of those things simultaneously. We’re also selfish (I am, at least), and it seems ironic that though love is so difficult for most of us, the desire for it is nearly universal and uniting.
