Every day, hour, minute, and second, important events are taking place that will affect me, you, and the whole of the population. Many of these events are needing immediate help and aid: world hunger, the accident at Chernobyl, etc. Although most people want to turn a blind eye to it ("we dont know we don't know") the "time is ticking out" and actions need to be taken to better the environment, and our social situations. "For me love is all" tells us that all we need to do to stop these atrocities against the environment and humanity is to have sympathy, compassion--- love. Love is all we need- love that will make us take action to better the world for ourselves and posterity. But then, that's just me.
