The Goderich Signal Star, 1976-03-18, Page 7r.• :Love makes the world go 'round, love makesthe world; go 'round," so goes the song ' of another decade. Everyone is fascinated by that word 'love'. • 'Singers sing about. it, w=ritersd "'write '-abou`tn preachers preach about it and, everybody searches,, .for it. • Yet,.for many, it:remalns an illusive . factor, Others' 'tllknk, they've found .•it ,for awhile',; only'to realize, later on, that' What they ` thought _ was., the". real thing has. gone sour: It's not so amazing that we all •di:'earri of love, that we all. hope .someday, someplace we'll.find that beautiful thine that will transform our lives it's not go amazing when_ you consider the alternative, The -alternative. is ~hatred,, greed, self centreness, ' in- differenee, apathy, jealousy and a hundred other.Jhings- that we know make .fife a'- 'mess. What is amazing is .that we so often hang ti'gh'tly unto • these mise'rab'le qualities and as long as we do we can really never experience: love ...not love in its purest and best f orm. ' • The crunch is that it takes sacrifice to° love and to be loved, and that's just what many of us don't want. Love me, we say, : just as' I am- . but if you want me ,to love you, you had-, better shape up, Buster. . The .Bible has much to say about the ' subject. '"Many floods cannot drown love". says the author of the . Songs of Solomon, ,He's .right• Love' is the •'strongest, most cementing force. in the World. • It's'. also .a source of power and what a pity more people • don't tryiit:. Paul laid down some pretty good ground rules about love• • in Corinthians when he said something like this': • Though .I go out and sway --andiences-With,rny-rhetoric or: thrill vdst numberswith my ability to_ sing, or play an instrument, and then go home and stomp, all • ove'r my family, :I'm just'a great' big. noisey wind: -bag. .
