Given the enormity of the issues of our world today, what does love have to do with any of it? What does love have to do with the Supreme Court of the land, and decisions that have stoked fear and division, wonder, curiosity. What does love have to do with women being denied bodily autonomy? What does love have to do with Creation groaning under the weight of greed and choked by pollution, and yet the Court saying let it go. What does love have to do with the separation of church and state starting to become ever more blurred? What does love have to do with the integrity of democracy being imperiled? What does love have to do with the proliferation of gun violence erupting at parades and on city streets, assassinations of regular citizens and beloved leaders, too? What does love have to do with the stress of inflation, the agony of war, the pain of division, and the worry over what might be next? Quite frankly, everything.
