Fruit, a - how it can teach us about love

01/26/2018

What can fruit teach us about love? To simplify, let us say that a fruit is made up of three elements: the skin, which we discard most of the time; the flesh, which we eat; and the stone, which we pla nt. You might ask, ‘What is the link with love?’ It is very simple. A man or a woman offers you their love and you accept it; that is you eat it and drink it, without any kind of sorting process. And then of course, some time later, tragedy strikes. Why? Because you have not understood the lesson of the fruit. The love of a man or a woman inevitably contains some elements that would have been better to have left aside. When you are offered love you must remember that it will always contain elements that need to be discarded (let’s say symbolically, the skin), others you can take (the flesh), and finally one you must plant in your soul (the stone). Because even if the flesh of this fruit is succulent, it is better to know what tree will grow from it. When you know the exact nature of this tree, you will know if you can believe in that love and get involved.
