About Love: Showing Love to Strangers

About Love: Showing Love to Strangers


Its not easy showing love to strangers. In fact, it's out right have at times. That's one thing about love that is mighty strange, although we have it in our hearts to show love to others, especially those in need, we choke and freeze up. How often have you pulled up to a stop light and not shown love to the beggar in the center divide by just giving him/her a few coins. Something about love tells us we should, but because we don't know the person, it is so hard to open up and connect with that person. Often, psychologically, I believe that we think they are contagious and whatever landed them in the situation that they are in will happen to us. We are embarrassed at time even associating with strangers that look different than us.

However, it's foolish. It's not how to show love. Instead, showing love may only take 3 seconds and not cost more than a quarter. The same quarter that buys the sandwich that saves the life. What is love all about? It's about sometimes doing, when you are uncomfortable doing. It's about giving, even when you don't have the time to give. Love is about being able to show love to strangers despite what others might think. And when we are able to show love to strangers, we have begun to learn how to love unconditionally, making us the most powerful weapon on the face of the planet.

What Is Love All About

What Is Love All About


Balance

It feels really good to fall in love. One powerful and sometimes dangerous aspect about love is that it can be nearly addictive. And there are so many processes that run through all of our senses to make us want to fall in love and stay in love. The sights, sounds, smells, and touch of our loved one keeps us mutually around each others finger. However, we must always remember that we cannot completely lose ourselves in the process. When we fall in love, we falling in love with an individual who has a history, a culture, a family, hopefully a career, goals, dreams, fears, desires, and their own perspectives about love. As we grow together in relationships the two begin to merge. But when we merge to the point that one no longer recognizes the individual that we once fell in love with, sometimes problems creep in. As a result, a balance with love in necessary. On one side is the closeness and blending of lives, and on the other is maintenance of individuality. So What is Love All About : Balance!

What is Love All About? Chasing the Feeling of Love

What is love all about

I am not sure if there is any one true answer to this question. However, there are some pretty good descriptors that help us to understand. So what is love all about? Well, love is all about a feeling that is triggered when we exhibit specific behaviors. This feeling so grand that it is addictive to the point that we want to exhibit these specific behaviors over and over again. The thing about love is that as humans, we just can’t get enough of it! And the feeling that we get can be triggered relatively easily. What love is all about is showing these behaviors to people we care about in life.
Love is innate. Although we learn a range of behaviors to express love over time, no one has to show an infant how to love. It just kinda happens. Adults, on the other hand, sometimes do need encouragement in how to show love. Thus, blogs such as this. All in all, love is a series of expression that can be provided and received in a multitude of ways, big and small, for short periods or through an entire lifetime. It can range from a pat on the back, to the proverbial dozen of red roses. It can be a note of appreciation, or a dissertation highlighting a person’s entire splendor.
Regardless of what it may look like, we constantly chase after the feeling of being love and giving love. And so far, it continues to make the world go around.
