Sacrifice; Love; Attention; Identity

Sacrifice reveals and waters love. When sacrifice is not present neither is love. Love is the fruit of sacrifice, and by sacrifice does one comes to know the boundaries of the self and the object of love of the self.
Modern relationships, regardless of the man's or woman's side, replace sacrifice with gratification and called the gratification love.
This gratification is not an act of sacrifice but an act of maintaining static ego boundaries in a manner where a false sense of security and identity is derived as the ego is nurtured in a way where no moving beyond it becomes possible.
To love and be loved requires a temporary alleviation from the boundaries of what one calls the self, relative to the time and circumstances such alleviation is required by necessity, and in turn a different self emerges and is generated.
To learn love is to learn sacrifice. And this is universal for all relationships, not strictly romantic ones but friends, family, community but even relationships with one actually chooses to do. One who loves a job, loves a hobby, loves a specific type of discipline will removed layers of the self so to achieve a sense of unification.
These layers of the self are merely perceptions for by perception to we mediate attention and to reduces the layers of perception is to reveal what underlies it as the act of attention itself.
When attention is fully given to anyone person or group or anyone thing or endeavor judgement is suspended and the person(s) or thing is revealed as what it is one its own terms outside the self, outside the perception.
With this revelation the attended person or thing alleviates a sense of identity one previously had for a newly generated identity, a newly generated self, and a sense of rebirth, in a micro-scale, occurs thus a form of transcendent identity is revealed.
How? Simply the act of unmitigated attention, the attention as that which derives the necessary change for identity not only to occur but to be revealed.
People do not pay attention, deeply, as much in previous times thus a subconscious collective sense of guilt emerges as a sense of worth is extinguished by degree of a sense of self is polluted by distractions, for the attention is fractured and in this fracturing there is a fracturing of identity with it.
When identity is fractured the ability to navigate the complexities of existence, the complexities of life, becomes diminished and a sense of being carry by the storm of circumstance becomes inevitable. In these respects tragic fate takes its course as autonomy ceases.
This exponentiates as relationship upon relationship ceases to result in meaning and a static lifeless progression towards homogeny results thus creating an inherent and unnamable tension of "something is wrong" with no definitive scale to define what that something is or is not.
