DWQA QuestionsCategory: MetaphysicsDon Byas said, “You call it madness, but I call it love.” What is Creator’s perspective?

This was made a bit tongue in cheek but it, too, contains much truth, that love is captivating, love is a force to reckon with that can overturn logic, cause someone to throw caution to the winds, and even engage in daring and reckless conduct in service to the pursuit of a love object against all reason and convention. There are many examples through history where men, in particular, have been daring and risked even death to reach and pursue someone they fancy and wish to have as a life partner. Those not swept up in the heightened emotions and desires of passionate love will simply not understand what could possess someone to act so irresponsibly and illogically, from their perspective, but the one in love knows. It is such a powerful and hypnotic sensation it is like an addictive drug for many when it reaches intensity that becomes a primary focus in one's order of priorities. People who taste of love will never again be satisfied with anything as a substitute, they will always want the real thing and will seek it out avidly. The saddest thing about this quote is the fact there are people who do see it as madness, and not as unbridled joy and a kind of jubilant exercise of freedom to follow one's heart if not their head. Love is so very important because it is the dominant force of the universe, and it is the single most important characteristic that sets Creator apart from all other creatures in existence, that Creator has the greatest love, the most eternal, the most complete, and the most unconditional love there is. Evil is an illustration of what happens when love is absent, and then selfishness and a lust for power are pursued as a very poor substitute for acquiring some kind of reward for the self, for there is truly nothing like love to be the healing salve for any ailment. There is no state of emotion or unhappiness in any form that cannot be restored to a healthy balanced degree of function by the addition of love in the right way at the right time. Those who are evildoers, the criminals among you, the sociopaths, the narcissists, and others who are problems for society as well as themselves, have in common a restricted connection to the higher self and beyond—that is the conduit for the flow of love from the divine. If you are cut off from above, love will wither within you and it is the most tragic of handicaps because an absence of love leads to depravity, and that harms the perpetrator more than the victim, but all will lose in a world that is loveless.
