Vida en el Amor

I've read this book in English and the Spanish original,and all I can say about it is that this is a very, very rich work. Reality is goodness. What is love, is, and what isn't love, is not. Sin and evil do not exist as such because they aren't self-sustaining, and they should be regarded as love gone astray instead. Greed (love of money) and selfishness (love of oneself) are simple products of "mischanneled love," and even then -- in the presence of such 'sins'-- we are drawn to our peception of the ultimate romance we all search for: The Good, or God --depending on your taste. ;)
