Loving Others

"Love is of utmost importance. Once you have set your will that you will learn the way of love, then there is no flaw or irritation in another person that you cannot bear. You will find , in fact, that you are able to live so at peace that it will take a truly exceptional irritation to affect your love for anyone.
If this one commandment were kept - 'Love one another' - I know that it would carry us a long way toward keeping all the rest of our Lord's commands." Theresa of Avila (1515-1582)
