the moment contains love - the power of now?

[Marc]

Let's say in the present you are being viciously attacked by another whether it be torture, being shot at or something one would consider horrible.

How would these very things contain love? I know they are love but how are they love? Why are they love? I don't intend to be a Debbie Downer. I just wish to know if anyone has a clear answer.

Also, I don't think enjoying the present means ignoring or rejecting the past or future but embracing the past that made the present and how the present will make the future; Embracing it all as one, if you will. In others word, the present isn't single but a product of the past and the creator of the future.

I'll put the scenario in context. WWII-- a Nazi soldier is shooting you. Why? Because he wants his family and country to prosper and believes what he is doing is right. He is shooting you out of love for his country. Same thing applies with terrorists-- they may be infringing on other's free-will, but its out of some type of love, whether pure or distorted. Really viewing anything from the other/self's point of view can allow you to see the love in that moment.
