Read the book—《The Art of Loving》 again📖
Why we choose to love?
Everyone longs for intimacy—the kind of deep connection with another person in which we are seen, understood, and supported. When we are children, our parents are the ones who provide love; as we grow up and move toward independence, we inevitably face separation from our parents and begin to experience loneliness.
So I started to learn how to love, because I know that love is a capacity, an art. To love others means learning how to love ourselves and to love the world. Love helps us overcome separation and loneliness, and deep connection with others allows us to know ourselves more fully, giving us a fundamental sense of support and inner strength. Love fills my life with meaning.
Love is about a choice, It’s a journey, you guys meet it, feel it, then you choose each other, embrace the relationship, you guys need to work on it.
It’s a process, it’s not only about hugging or kissing or even saying I love you, it’s about staying with people.
It’s about listening and being listened to. It’s about sharing the joys of life, and the worries and the pain of life, it’s about caring and being cared for.
It’s an unknown and unexpected journey, that’s why it’s full of challenges, surprise, joyless and growth.
