Love for ‘Love’
Dr. Gerald Jampolsky, a local gem, told us in 1979 that “love is letting go of fear.” It changed my life. I thank Cincinnatus Hibbard for his contribution to this endeavor (‘Revealing the Nature of Love,’ Feb. 11-17) and Weeklys for featuring it.
Love does indeed make the world go round rather than flat. Yet, it may take decades of dedicated practice to free ourselves to be lovingly kind, consistently.
In my roles as counselor and local columnist, I explore “Love Arts” as the master key to well-being. Each of us is meant to bring love “to life” uniquely. This epiphany becomes initiation into elderhood, into offering a wisdom legacy to those who’ll follow.
Welcome, Cincinnatus, to the fold.

Regarding ‘Beasts of the Pacific: Northern Elephant Seals at Home in Drakes Beach’ (Bohemian/Pacific Sun, Feb. 18–24): Thank you for this informative article. Why did the Smithsonian group feel the need to kill the elephant seals?

The elephant seal killings occurred in 1892, so, unfortunately, the answer to your question has been lost to time and presumably science. – Editor
