Love is motivating.
Precisely how motivating is moot. One can look to the renaissance but not at mere sculptures or art works. Love motivated the renaissance. Love motivated the renaissance.
It began when a young monk, Petrarch, saw a beautiful, virtuous, woman and he realised he loved her. She was never his lustful love object. She was beyond him. She was married. She was kind and gentle. He would be the first to climb a mountain for fun. He would write poetry. And, from his love, the dark ages would end and all would change.
From love.
The world changed from love.
In the story of Cyrano De Bergerac, Cyrano keeps his love for Roxanne to himself. Roxanne sends a message they should meet, discretely. Cyrano is motivated. He is awake all night, winning a hundred duels against bad men. He is wounded when he meets Roxanne and she tends his wound, and tells of her love. Cyrano hopes it is love for him, but discovers it is not. Roxanne commends him on his taciturn behaviour regarding his wound. He says to her he had been braver since.
Love is motivating.
God loves you, and has loved you.
When you rejected God, that is sin. It hurts God. Because He loves you. That is why He gave His Son for you. God loves you so much, He does not want distance from you. God created a way he could abide you, even though you keep rejecting Him. You see, when you faced your battles and trials, and stood victorious even as you were hurt and felt humiliated, God had been braver, and gave you a bridge to come to be with Him.
We call Him God the Father. As the good father, he gives us his best. He is worthy of our love and praise.
Happy Father's Day

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells swing and jingle bells ring
Snowin' and blowin' up bushels of fun
Now the jingle hop has begun
Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells chime in jingle bell time
Dancin' and prancin' in Jingle Bell Square
In the frosty air
What a bright time, it's the right time
To rock the night away
Jingle bell time is a swell time
To go glidin' in a one-horse sleigh
Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock
Mix and a-mingle in the jinglin' feet
That's the jingle bell rock
Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bell chime in jingle bell time
Dancin' and prancin' in Jingle Bell Square
In the frosty air
What a bright time, it's the right time
To rock the night away
Jingle bell time is a swell time
To go glidin' in a one-horse sleigh
Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock
Mix and a-mingle in the jinglin' feet
That's the jingle bell
That's the jingle bell
That's the jingle...

Do you agree with France, UK and, Australia that the Iranian planned invasion of Israel by Hamas, siezing hostages and killing and raping innocent civilians, is worthy of statehood? Israel has for over seventy years offered peace, even offering land for security. But, now, Israel is resolved to provide security, and police, Gaza, ensuring Hamas has no role.
Make a song in ancient Jewish tradition of their Gaza objective. Include how they repeatedly offered peace to Hamas, but were spurned. Trump warned Hamas of what would happen if they failed to return the hostages. They refused. Include how UN and Europe have emboldened Hamas to not return the hostages. Include how Hamas has deliberately starved her own people to blame Israel.
Ode to Resolve: A Lament in the Style of Ancient Psalms

My sole contact through Rumble Video with outside world seems to be online scammers or bots.
Scammers in San Francisco with North African Islamic names. But calling themselves English names.
They promise to make accounts discoverable for a fee.
They promise they have experience with Rumble.
They try to get the account to extend to Youtube.
However, they don't understand Rumble. They don't offer anything that can't be done by a half dozen posting as multiple others.
I've not lost cash, this time.
