Redefining Love

Where there is love, there is magic. According to a Greek proverb, ‘The heart that loves is always young’.
Love, I believe, is what happens when your heart is content with all that you have. It is the unconditional singing of a bird, blooming of a flower and flowing of a river, without any motive, without any expectation. It is wrong to say that it causes anguish. Anguish is caused by the unfulfilled demands and expectations that we subtly associate with our so-called love. True love shines forth from those hearts that only know giving. Total acceptance of a person without any prejudice or exception is the right step towards true love. A person filled with true love is not afraid of rejection.
Dr Karl Menninger rightly says, ‘Love cures people — both the ones who give it and the ones who receive it’. There is no fall in true love. You can only rise in love.
