Be Loveable

I've never thought I was much of a Dick Gregory fan, maybe because I have an aversion to the word activist, or maybe because I have an aversion to proponents of extreme eating habits, but he was on Chicago Tonight last night and he seemed alright. Certainly his focus was to be admired.

The one zinger he dropped, for those congregated here to bask in collective knowledge about the nature of love, was that after 10 kids and 45 years of marriage, he had learned that it wasn't enought to love, but that the key was being loveable.

Whoo-whee. That kind of flips the script deoesn't it? That's worth the price of admission right there.

Why is it I always find I have something to learn from things/people I have an aversion to? I guess if they didn't mean anything to me I wouldn't even notice them.

Striving for loveability-ly yours..
