ARROGANCE
Some people don't want to have anything more to do with love.
Because there has been deception from all sides, they have kicked
love away. They think it is too complicated, too tiring. They say, "I'm
not going to love anyone any more and I don't want anyone to love
me, either." They don't even want to talk about it. They don't want
to hear about motherly love, friendly love, any kind of love at all.
These are the ones who end up saying, "I just want to be
independent." They think that love should mean freedom from all
these things. Actually, this is a kind of arrogance. Such people do
not understand that this earth is a field of action, and that this field
and our being on it needs that water of love.
