“If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal.”

1 Corinthians 13:1

Love and truth


Speaking with intelligence, with eloquence, and having the faculty to direct ourselves to others with profound words, or naming love, without truly retaining love in ourselves, ends up being as an instrument that only makes noise, without music, without being something real in its essence. It is difficult to define love, but it is not only intelligence, or only emotion, or knowledge of goodness.

Love rejoices in truth. From the moment we connect with that feeling our words will come out of us with truth, with sincerity, and coherently with who we are, with the way we feel, evoking music in our words.
