"The lesson is clear: Love, like physical resources, need not be rationed."

I do understand the premise of "inexhaustibility" and while it MAY apply equally well to emotions as to energy sources..........I find it hard to accept that EVERYONE is deserving of this affirming love !

Some people are absolutely hateful and deprivation of that love is not only justifiable , it's just about the only tool left in the tool-box that you can utilise to admonish them !

So , no ! LOVE does NEED to be rationed in some cases.....and completely cut-off in some others !

It is FAR EASIER to unconditionally love the masses of humanity that YOU have NEVER MET than

to love AN INDIVIDUAL that you already KNOW and have reason to dislike !
