Gukundwa no kurengana bidasa umuja, kubaha ubusambo bukomeye nk'uko umubiri ubaha. Ntibwije iki kwitwa gukundwa no kurengana bidasa umuja? Gukundwa arakigerera irengera, ubwo ugize ubwo bidasa umuja nk'uko umuntu uhamamye iri mu ntambogamakara, ndetse no mu buhungiro. Ibi bidasa umuja, bisa nk'aho umutima ugikanda. Ntitwije iki kwitwa kubaha ubusambo bukomeye nk'umubiri? Dushakisha ubusambo bukomeye kuko turakunda umubiri wacu; ariko nimba tutakunda umubiri, ubusambo bufite iki? Kubera ko dusumba ububasha bwacu, turashobora kugabura isenga rya bombi; ariko uwumva yigenga abaho muri rusange, niwe ukomeye kandi ufite ubupfura. Yego, uwukunda umubiri we mu bw'ishengero rya gahunda, ashobora kubwira abantu uko bagenda; kandi uwuwo wenyene yigenga, ashobora kubwira abantu uko bakwiye kugira.
