Harassed by reality
Reality, the constant obstacle and sabotage
to love and all idealism,
is just life's greatest challenge
to stand up against and face,
surmount and get around,
and the best means and only means to do it
is by love, of course, which never can be vanquished
and which never can give up
and rather dies than tolerates defeat.
That is the very element of love:
to fight unto the bitter end for the impossible,
the unattainable and highest freedom,
the intangible ideal, the dream that always must go on.
So if reality has anything against our love,
that will at length result in nothing else
than adding fuel to our love.
