Love is far bigger than action and inaction.

In Love, it is not your name that is important. In Love, it is love that is important.

Sometimes you are a lover, sometimes you are a nanny. Love plays dice with your identities. Love makes a mockery of your names.

Love remains, all else is negotiable.

Sometimes you move left, and immediately you move right. Which action are you talking of? Any particular action? No, love is not there in any particular action.

Love is there, only in being particular about Love.

So, Love shines forth in action, but not in any particular action.

Neither in any particular action, nor in
