I think I understand what you mean. I wonder if love, all real love, isn't spiritual in some way though.
If you don't mind, could I ask what denomination, if any, you belong to? I hear quite a bit from Protestants about a 'personal relationship with Jesus' that may be something similar to what I'm trying to say here.
I appreciate your views and thank you for your reply.
