Why do some people always see beautiful skies and grass and lovely flowers and incredible human beings, while others are hard-pressed to find anything or any place that is beautiful? Education should be the process of helping everyone to discover his uniqueness. We all fear what we don't know-it's natural. Relish love in your old age! Aged love is like aged wine; it becomes more satisfying, more refreshing, more valuable, more appreciated and more intoxicating! A loving relationship is one in which the loved one is free to be himself—to laugh with me, but never at me; to cry with me, but never because of me; to love life, to love himself, to love being loved. Such a relationship is based upon freedom and can never grow in a jealous heart. Perfect love is rare indeed—for to be a lover will require that you continually have the subtlety of the very wise, the flexibility of the child, the sensitivity of the artist, the understanding of the philosopher, the acceptance of the saint, the tolerance of the scholar and the fortitude of the certain. Love is always bestowed as a gift—freely, willingly and without expectation. We don't love to be loved; we love to love. Nine times out of ten, when you extend your arms to someone, they will step in, because basically they need precisely what you need. Every day we are offered new means for learning and growing in love. |
