“We commonly confuse love with the strong emotions most often associated with it, such as joy, attachment, lust, infatuation, pleasure, pain, fear, and hope, to name a few. But, love is not a feeling; love itself is an action. There are countless emotions and beliefs that can cause us to love. Love is the willing giving of self to another living being. Love is giving the life, time, energy, and resources that we would normally give or use for our self to someone else. Love is an action that enhances the well-being of another living being.” LoveActionPainJoyHopeFearPleasureEmotionsLustWell BeingAttachmentInfatuation Book:Self: A Treatise On The Nature Of Reality Source: Self: A Treatise On The Nature Of Reality
