Lust is to speed what love is to patience. Lust is to drive what love is to endurance. Lust is a flame; love is a blanket. Lust is a flash in the pan, while love is a slow and steady boil. At times, lust and love produce synergy and birth progeny (Brad Gilmore). Lust hath these three companions: the first, blindness of understanding; the second, hardness of heart; the third, want of grace (Saint Basil). Love is patient, love is kind, it is not envious. Love does not brag, it is not puffed up. It is not rude, it is not self-serving, it is not easily angered or resentful. It is not glad about injustice, but rejoices in the truth . . . Love never fails . . . (Love has the companions of faith and hope; but love is the greatest) (Saint Paul, 1 Corinthians 13:4-8, 13). Lust feels like love until it's time to make a sacrifice (Unknown). From desire I plunge to its fulfillment, where I long once more for desire (Johann W. Von Goethe). Lust is a reckless motivator and distilled sensual delirium. Love is a purposeful force of compassion, justice, and pardon. Both are innately perceived and crucial for human experience. This is the second book of Dr. Gilmore's poetic trilogy called Arid Willows and Hallowed Haunts.
