The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from God The Invisible King by H. G. Wells: former and are absolutely incompatible with the latter. The former
is the intensest realisation of which our individualities are
capable; the latter is the way of escape from the limitations of
individuality. It may be true that a few men and more women do
achieve the completest unselfishness and self-abandonment in earthly
love. So the poets and romancers tell us. If so, it is that by an
imaginative perversion they have given to some attractive person a
worship that should be reserved for God and a devotion that is
normally evoked only by little children in their mother's heart. It
is not the way between most of the men and women one meets in this
world.
