Mission Statement
  • The greatest mysteries are:
    1. The origin of the universe. (incomprehensible)
    2. What Love is. (elusive or inconsistent)
  • Having been in LOVE, I know it is real.
  • After getting to a point where I could at least think
    of something else, I researched LOVE (I do that sort of
    thing), but still do not know all the answers. This page
    is a quest for answers.

  • It is a work sheet of what I know so far.
