The mind cannot interpret the heart's logic.

My daughter has met her first big love. The other day, over afternoon tea, she told me, "I've been noticing that when I try to explain to someone why I love him, I encounter this fog. The only thing that makes any kind of sense - and still, it feels like an outside kind of logic, is to say, 'I know it when I feel it.'"

What a beautiful and clear example of what happens when the mind tries to make sense of the heart's logic. What a perfect demonstration, also, of how that doesn't work.

When the mind tries to 'rationalize' or name or categorize love what does it get? This fog. As my daughter told me, "I give up trying to understand it. I just want to touch him. I just want to love him."
