Love Is War

A Life in Three Words

11 November 2026 ~ 3 minute read

Some phrases stay with us because they capture something we’ve spent years trying to understand. Looking again, loving life, walking the walk, amplifying the light: each has marked a different stage of my journey. Now another has emerged. Amor bellum est. Love is war.
