The Seed of Love

I find the events of this world, like the drama, strong negative emotions and even emotional pain, are very compelling, though hollow and transient.  Those events draw me/us in and seem very real, even for me, having felt and lived with the reality of the other side.  Within each of us there is a seed of the peace and love of the other side.  When we find that seed and act on it, we know its truth and know its power, it feels right.  The trick for me is to continually turn my back on the compelling, but very transient, things of this world, and turn towards the peace and love in the eternity of the absolute.  It is my understanding that we are all learning to do that.
