Listened to the song “To Dream The Impossible
Dream” - for the first time registering the words,
to love at a distance, chaste and pure; I love truth,
wisdom and integrity, beauty, honour and loyalty,
searching for these beloved values in something to
love at a distance - psychologists say love for others
is based on love for self
I’m not impressed with my moral prowess, can’t love
myself so much; people preaching principles are cold,
overbearing, scary and judgmental, love for morality
excludes love for humanity it seems - pondering the
problem – who or what to love at a distance, chaste
and pure; who personifies these values, to be
loved at a distance, reaching for the
Unreachable star?
