The answer is love, not the mopey dopey, happily ever after story book kind.
But the kind that changes a diaper for the third time in an hour, the kind that looks beyond annoyances and slights, the kind that picks up your burdens and carries them for a while, the kind that will lay down their own lives or interests for another, the kind that takes on inconvenience and irritation for the sake of a stranger.
This is not a feeling, this is not a passion, it’s a cold, hard, smelly, painful, and lonely choice.
The only way to build that love is to live it regardless of what others do. If you want heaven on earth, you have to live like you are in heaven and stop trying to make everyone else do it.
