sure I can, love is when you feel another's happiness and pain, and you do what you can to assist or rejoice. This is not the same love that one can have for Ek Onkar, in my view, as that love cannot be described, and I do believe anyone who attempts is a fool. One can only share.

Sri Granth: Sri Guru Granth Sahib
The great mystery, how can see you something in all, when that something, as in my case, as in most cases has been replaced by something else. How to see God in all, if God itself cannot be described, what then are you looking for? To be blunt, how can one see God in another if one cannot see it in the self? To anyone that feels they have a deep and meaningful relationship with the almighty, to those that talk to God, I suggest you are talking and having a deeper relationship with a minute, tiny aspect of what is God, and to boot, that is highly personal, and individual, as individual as a fingerprint. The point in question is should one preach one's own understanding, I have no problem with sharing, but to stand on a pedestal and insist ones own personal relationship with a tiny fragment of the almighty, represents some sort of universal view that needs to be embraced and understood is sheer vanity, again, speaking solely for myself.
