Love Is the Greatest, Not just from the bible

Recently I have been listening to quite a few motivational speaker. Maybe I should not call them motivational speaker, but more like teachers of life. Among them are Anthony Robbin, Wayne Dyer and some others. As I listen to them, I find that there is something common about the things they teach. They teach about loving unconditionally to everyone around us. When the first time I hear one of them take about this, I thought of the verse from the bible.

Matthew 22:36-40

Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?" Jesus replied: "'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.' This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments."

From this verse, it talks about love being the greatest commandment, and with love, everything can be overcome. This seem too simple to be so powerful. I have hear of this verse many times, but hearing from someone who have experience this before is really difference, or maybe I have not put my trust in the bible full yet. However, I think a lot of people would just take this verse lightly because it is so commonly used. Thinking about this verse, it make our spritiual live very far from what we should be.

There are tons of wisdom in the bible, if this is the greatest commandments of all. This should be the only wisdom that we should alway remember.
