Love: Finite or Boundless? A personal project and a book written by you!

Love is an infinitely faceted gem

I give thanks to the eye of the beholder.

I give thanks to the eye which beholds these words.

I give thanks to the eye that beholds these words and contributes.

Within my personal system of thought it is near, if not completely, impossible for two entities to receive and return the same ideas and experiences in precisely the same manner. The purpose of this project is to have as many people that are willing to define their personal belief of what "Love" is; as well as providing space for the same to share an experience of love which has left a lasting impression on their psyche.

It is in my hopes that this project will enlighten the minds who participate in both reading and contributing to the exercise that there are infinite avenues to express one's love for oneself and for others. In this way would I hope that those engaged, if not already, will begin to accept others in their ways of communicating their love.

I would like to get these entries printed into a book that I would distribute to parties interested in discovering the depths and infinite boundaries of Love. Using Lightning Press for printing, I have received the cheapest quote I've found for 200 books with approximately 200 double printed pages, color cover, and black and white printing. They have quoted me at $618.30 USD.

Another idea I've had is to set up a Post Office Box here in town to allow for participation by anyone not in the area that would like to enter their definitions and stories. The cost for the smallest size PO Box for 6 months is $24.00 USD. (I would enter a source or photo but their pricing is so odd online that I had to call to get an actual number.)

The total cost would run some where around the number of $640.00 USD. As it stands in my current position, that number is well beyond my budget, and that is where you all can help!

If I can get this post to reach a payout on my end valuing the approximate cost of printing 200 books then I will move forward with the project and, using a random selector program, I will send 20 copies to 20 users who upvote and comment that they would like to participate in the giveaway.

Thank you for your time and the love you all exude.

Interesting project, will follow updates

Hi I upvoted this post and Tweeted it. I shared it on Facebook. I think you can get a book created for free online and sell it online with CafePress, Lulu and some other websites. You can create and sell a Kindle ebook with a pdf file at Amazon.com and create a book from a blog, Facebook and Instagram free and sell it at BlookUp.com.

Thank you very much for your support, it really means a lot to me.

As far as printing with Lulu and the likes, they are not free and they are print by demand. Meaning that the site waits for a customer to purchase the book and then takes a percentage of the price set by the author.

With this project I intend to gift these books to others. By using print by demand I would be totally defeating the purpose of this project.

If I cannot get them printed then a handwritten book shared among those I cross will have to suffice.
