Love’s power cannot be harnessed.
No bit will fit the mouth of Love.
No saddle can straddle Love’s back.
Love cannot be broken.
Love cannot be tamed.
Yet Love invites you to ride.
Go ahead. Climb up.
Love will willingly carry you.

I think we needed a photo of you on old Widow Maker at Canyon de Chelly to complete the effect... [The author says: My friend Craig is remembering a horseback ride down Canyon de Chelly in Arizona. After eight hours, sick and miserable, I got off that horse and hitch-hiked the last hour back to camp. A Navajo couple gave me a ride. Nearly every day in summer, after getting off work at the local hospital, the couple drive their pickup truck up the valley to tend their peach orchard. They were returning home when they picked me up.]
