Today’s Thinking Out Loud reflection is on Cervantes work, Don Quixote.
“Then, his armor being furnished, his morion turned into a helmet, his hack christened, and he himself confirmed, He came to the conclusion that nothing more was needed now but to look out for a lady to be in love with; For a knight-errant without love was like a tree without leaves or fruit, or a body without a soul.” Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra, Don Quixote
Note: Love is all. Love completes us. It requires us to bury our ego so we may love another without any thought to ourselves. When one has this type of love relationship, one forgets who he or she is and becomes immersed in the other forming a new identity. Two separate people become one. Neither one feels suffocated or trapped. Each feels, perhaps for the first time, alive and free to experience life at a heightened level.
