Loving


Requires effort
.
No it does not loving does not require effort
.
It is innate in us
.
One could argue either way however what is clear is that loving as an act is a powerful help to our well being and good health
.
Like smiling loving influences other things in our lives
.
So first question what and or who do you love?
.
Actually count them
.
How many people, animals or things do you actually love?
.
Next question do you nurture these people, animals or things you love?
.
Do you nourish and look after them?
.
Do you pay attention to them?
.
Loving we say should be active and not passive
.
It should be a conscious act
.
Better still it should have our attention our focus
.
Our best efforts to promote and protect
.
If your loving is passive then shift it to a proactive energy
.
Extend your loving further
.
Does your loving only extend to people or things where there is a direct payback to yourself?
.
Then is it in reality a deal, a transaction rather than love?
.
If this is so then determine to bring loving to people or things where it is solely to help them and not yourself
.
Where there might be no direct payback or maybe none at all
.
Loving just for the sake of it and to help others
.
As an aside this is what helps us to become more open and aware of the needs of others
.
Our journey of evolution amongst other things is about opening up to others
.
Loving them for no other reason than it feels like the right thing to do
.
Nature appreciates our helping others
.
One day someone will show you their loving in an unexpected way
.
Then and maybe only then will you fully appreciate how great it feels and is so obviously important for all humans
.
Make loving a conscious part of your life
