by Brad Brown
Guidelines To Love explores love’s paradoxical nature as a place of emotional connection and as a force of radical awakening. Love is mundane and profane, fleeting and eternal; it is as inexhaustible as the ocean, and as impossible to fathom. And its lessons are the only truly worthwhile source of learning.

Kate Edgley –
“A love that clings forges invisible chains of human bondage.” Clinging to love is my pattern, something I know, intellectually, is destructive, and yet I continue to struggle not to do it. The ‘invisible chains’ gives me an immediate picture of how this behaviour that comes to me so automatically, disguising itself as something creative, in fact enslaves and alienates the other person.
Zoe Grace Cozens –
The single piece I have opened to most often is at the opening of this book: “The teachers of love are everywhere, griping, demanding, bitching, resenting, dying, caring, asking, yearning for my loving response.” This reminds me that when I am out of love I am also out of touch with all that is best in me. I yearn to come home to myself. But this is what awaits me: “Love doesn’t fix things. It transforms them.” And just in case I might decide that now is not the right moment to take the first step: “I waited for love. I forgot. It always waits for me.” I write this with a smile on my lips and gratitude in my heart. No excuses!
