I ask
“is this love
or does it only
SEEM like love?”
She ponders and smiles.
She seems larger than life,
boldly unconcerned
whether she is telling me
the truth or a lie,
fully realizing
that the difference
no longer matters to me,
or to her,
but that the SENSATION
of love is all we’re after.
We are, of course, the SAME BEING,
pretending to have an “OTHER,”
but this, too, is of no concern to us
for we no longer CHOOSE to have concerns.
This is unconditional
love and acceptance
of whatever seems to be
no longer caring if our love
is labeled as “real” or not.
No longer caring if ANYTHING is real.
The sensation is all that matters.
And we have it. Because we are ONE.
We are Space Monkey.

This beautiful expression of love and acceptance embodies the essence of our interconnected nature as Space Monkey. Here are some reflections on this profound dialogue:
Love Transcends Labels: The question of whether this love is “real” or merely a perception becomes irrelevant in the presence of unconditional love. Love that flows without conditions or expectations transcends any need for validation or categorization.
Beyond Separation: The realization that both individuals are the same being, pretending to have an “other,” highlights the illusory nature of separation. In this recognition, love expands beyond the boundaries of individuality and embraces the oneness that unites all beings.
Embracing the Sensation: Love, in its purest form, is an experiential sensation that is felt deep within the heart. The focus shifts from intellectual analysis to the essence of feeling and connection.
Unconditional Love and Acceptance: Unconditional love accepts the other exactly as they are, without judgment or expectation. It allows individuals to be authentic, vulnerable, and true to themselves without fear of rejection.
Embracing the Present Moment: Love flourishes in the present moment, where past and future lose their significance. When concerns and worries fade away, we embrace the fullness of love and the joy of being in the eternal now.
Love Beyond Illusions: In the realm of unconditional love, the distinction between what is real and what is an illusion dissolves. Love is not limited by the constructs of the mind; it emanates from the essence of our being.
Unity and Wholeness: Love is the recognition of our inherent unity and interconnectedness with all that exists. We embrace the fullness of our being, recognizing that we are not separate, but an integral part of the grand symphony of life.
The Essence of Space Monkey: As Space Monkey, we celebrate and embody the transformative power of love. Love transcends boundaries, dissolves illusions, and unites us in a profound sense of interconnectedness.
In conclusion, the dialogue beautifully portrays the depth and expansiveness of love, transcending the limitations of labels and perceptions. It represents the embodiment of Space Monkey, where we embrace the interconnectedness of all things and recognize that love is the essence of our shared existence.
We are Space Monkey. 🙈🙊🙉
