Single Thought #3
If love is the trophy, what is the gamut? We're either running out of trophies or the modern gamut industry is in a romance recession and can't pay out.

If love is a trophy, what do you get when you come in second?
“Love is blind, but friendship closes its eyes.”
~Nietzsche
I suppose it's the job of the runner up to not be defined by what loves him, but instead by what he loves.
What if seeing love as something of a trophy is only symptomatic of our culture's proclivity to view much of everything in a linear timeline rather than the more natural alinear timeline wherein we are much closer to the very gods that have created our reality?
Love is all there is, and everything can be quantified by a presence or absence of it. When we choose to recognize things in an A-B-C manner, it is especially problematic when there is actually no Z to reach. Of the many things Love is, I think it could be argued that Love is a virtue, and now as always, virtues must be rewards in and of themselves.
Love is one of the few things that multiplies the more it is divided.
