Seek ye first to be and then to
find
a Low Maintenance Lover:
someone who recognizes their own
broken needs for and expressions
of love
as the wonderful imperfections
they are;
someone who gives love,
not for reciprocation,
but for the sheer joy of
catching glimpses
of how even broken-to-broken
expressions of it are capable
of calling forth the joyous
divine purposes hidden
deep within us all;
someone who often realizes
that sharing intimacy in all its
glorious manifestations is far
closer
to imago dei than reproduction
could ever be.

This is just wonderful and just what I need today.
