Interesting topic poetry... i've wondered how many others may have entertained this idea. Yes, i agree that love of all is an uplifting state of mind, and like you, struggled with certain issues, such as how can I love a child molester, a wife abuser, a murderer? Is it really "all good"?

I guess the best i've come up with is that love for others is not always agreement with others. the love i'm referring to is not a chemistry in the romantic sense but love in a human family sort of way.

like if i someone who did a harm to another, first of course, protect those in harms way, but if i truly want to help the offending party, what better treatment than love? how could i expect him/her to have faith in my point of view about their behaviour if they didn't feel love and acceptance in my expressions?

now i'm not saying love and accept that some wish harm on others, but if one truly believes they know a better way, be the first to set the example. show the offender that kindness is strength, that there is love enough on the planet to reach every individual here.

i also do not believe in playing the fool. perhaps this particular offender is not prepared to accept the glory of love in which case it is best to remove the innocent from harms way. that still does not mean you must stop loving anyone involved.

just my two...
