"You see rank and distinction; you try to order the world so that everything has a place either above you or beneath you. To a Seon, there is no above or beneath, there are only those we love. And we serve those we love."

Seriously? I love that.

Ah shucks, that is one of my favorite books.
that quote reminds me of my dad. he's not a man of words, he's a man of acts.
i knew exactly what it meant when he'd take my car for an oil change and vacuum it out.
Nice thoughts :)
What a beautiful quote! Thanks for sharing it.
I love it! Thanks for sharing.
Great message!
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful.
I guess we all too often do compare ourselves to others and think of them as being better or worse than ourselves.
I started a post on a topic like this and wrote a bit more on it the other day. I should publish that literary masterpiece soon.

what a great quote indeed......neither above or below (equal) loving each other
serving each other.

That is awesome! My love language is service too. :)

I love Brandon Sanderson! He is such a talented writer. And this is just one example.
Love the quote and the book the Five Love Languages. Thanks for the reminder!
I've been meaning to read that for a while. Have you read his Mistborn series? LOVE THEM.
