Our society is growing more demoralized. Broken homes and mounting uncertainties are eating away at the fabric of our structures. I do believe, however, that it is darkest before the dawn. There is a better and more quiescent period fast approaching.

Precisely, because giving is receiving.

Very well said
In so little words you really said it very well.Its true that we find true love in sharing than securing and i think if both the persons think and believe this way,they'll never get apart for they'll get the true essence of their bond.You really provided insight which is very much needed in these times.

Oh my...so well said, & expressed.

(From life experience I can relate to what you have posted.) To look before we leap...we need to first look within ourselves & remove our fears. Unfortunately, I didn't look first, and now have the challenge of dealing with the consequences of my actions. Too long a story to go into here, but suffice it to say...you hit the nail on the head with this post. (at least I know to work on forgiveness...myself first, then others).

very nice. This paragraph, especially, I think is spot on: Awakening acceptance within oneself opens the door to loving others. Being afraid constricts love by believing in the power of others to inflict harm. Yet, the more we trust and love ourselves, the less what others do really matters.

my day...
has been quite shitty too today...one young guy around 16-18 years old provoked me in the street, downtown. As I approached him, he run away and went next to his four faggot friends...all hey could do was insult me at distance. I was ready to slap the guy. Can you imagine this, i did not even look at the guy, i was looking at a product exposed in a shop and the dude started some shit with me...kids need to be re-educated, seriously! I am the kind of person who is rather cool with teenagers, but things are going really far with young ppl nowadays!

Avant-this goes to say you have to give love first before you receive love.

That's interesting, because yesterday was not one of the best days I've ever had. I ended up spanking my boys over something foolish, just because I was peeved all day long. Of course, that resurrected a lot of memories of my dad and how he used to paddle us over anything and nothing.

It has taken me a long time to realize this simple truth. It's funny how you have to go round the block to get next door sometimes.

This is really good, I especially liked the last paragraph. We must love ourselves in order to give and to receive love in its purest form. Thanks for sharing your thoughts!

well said my friend
The first relationship is with the Self, perhaps the only relationship for from it flow all of its outer expressions.
