Is it possible for the rose to say,
"I will give my fragrance to the good people who smell me, but I will withhold it from the bad?"

Or is it possible for the lamp to say,
"I will give my light to the good people in this room, but I will withhold it from the evil people"?

Or can a tree say,
"I'll give my shade to the good people who rest under me, but I will withhold it from the bad"?
These are images of what love is about.

Anthony de Mello
