Hiya. 😻 I’m back with the latest gems from the wisdom chest. You must have read a lot of love poems from us in the last few weeks. Love seems to be a deliberate choice.❤️❤️

Seriously, amid hate, failures, and losses, we could only rise with love. Only love can elevate us in desperate times, dwindling fates, and disillusionment clouds. In the torrid environment of narcissistic approach, profit over humanity, and dubious ethical codes, love is the only thing that holds a universal appeal.❤️❤️

How do we make an impact as caring beings? How do we support our loved ones through tough times? How do we maintain our mental health while being available to others?🤔😼

These are all valid questions; I’m sure everyone deals with these more often than we care to confess. 😼

It depends on our definition of love. If we treat it as a reciprocal contract, the give and take is mutual, with no strings attached or doing anything out of the ordinary. If we think of love as a self-sacrificing covenant, we tend to give more without caring about receiving anything in return.
