“Love is not union. It’s dialogue.” Philosopher Simon May on why love doesn’t erase difference — it transforms relation. Dark Matter, Bright Minds | Episode out now. #simonmay #philosophyoflove #love #darkmatterbrightminds #kindlecast

What is love, really — and why does it matter so much in modern life? Philosopher and author Simon May joins Dark Matter, Bright Minds to rethink love beyond romance: as groundedness, longing, risk, fear, and becoming. Episode out now. A Kindle Cast Original. #kindlecast #simonmay
