Love.
I am still on this Life's series and you can catch up with the other posts I've made on this Life's series, for you to fully understand each topic but still, each post is self-explanatory.
You can read about the other part of the series below:
Fix That Attitude: Life Is About Helping, III.
A lot of the things that have gone wrong with the world today can be traced to a lack of love for one another. That's why we have greedy people, selfish and insensitive folks too, even with our individual differences, we are all capable of love but most people would rather have things to themselves rather than open their hearts to love and be loved. Life is all about love and it was established for this too even though we need hate to fully understand what love means.
With love, we can learn to listen to others, teach others, help others and even show mercy to others. The world needs more love to heal from the evil we have been exposed to. With more love there would be a consideration for one another, wicked acts can be reduced to the barest minimum and we can see the changes that we crave.
We don't need more policies, we need more love. We have had too many policies yet nothing has changed. We have had people deceive us with plans and promises which never came to fruition. We have had enough of all those and now we need more love. That's how life is and what life should be about; loving yourself and loving others.
How much of yourself do you love? Do you love yourself enough to treat others the way they should be treated? A lot of people call selfishness love but that's not how things work. Yes, you are to love yourself and loving yourself is for you to have an idea of how to love others. How can you love yourself and not others? How can you love others and not love yourself?
A lot of people think less of themselves and they don't love themselves as much as they should which has shattered their confidence and made them live with low self-esteem. Life is about love and loving yourself is a step in the right direction. If I asked you to mention important people in your life, how many people would you have counted before you remember to mention yourself? You can't accurately give what you don't have which is why self-love is important in this life.
You love yourself enough not to cheat yourself, not to lie to yourself, not to do any harm against yourself, so why should you then learn how to do anything worse to another? We learn to love others by loving ourselves first. Write a love letter to yourself and I mentioned this a few weeks ago and I am glad some people did and I feel honoured to visit their posts too.
Loving others is also part of life and it can be in any capacity. You either have them as your siblings or your friends or your significant other. We have to learn to love others and I agree that it has to be mutual. It's not a trade but when someone loves you, you naturally want to let the person know the feeling is mutual. You learn about the person enough to know when and what to do to make that person happy. Most people don't love themselves and how then can they sustain any kind of relationship? You give out from the abundance of what you have in your heart.
We can't do without loving others. We are not designed to live life alone and love comes in different ways as mentioned above. When someone means something to you, you have to let them know. When was the last time you poured out your heart to someone you love? Did you let them know they are always in your thoughts or do you assume they should know? We need to let people know we love them because every moment is precious. We need to make use of every chance we have to let people know how special they are. Normally, anyone would gravitate towards the place they feel appreciated rather than the place they are tolerated. Do your best to make those around you know that you love them.
Send that text message, place that call, engage in that chat, send that voice note or whatever means come to your mind. You can even write it with your pen and paper and send it. It's always about the thought behind it not necessarily the length of it. Many people are dying to know they are loved but we are always too busy to let them know, so we assume they should know. Yes, they know but what's wrong with the extra effort in making them know? Send that gift, get something thoughtful, understand what they need and meet that need, what's life without love and making those you love about know that you care about them?
We don't need more people in government but we need people with the heart to love. Most of our politicians have sold their hearts to the devil so they are incapable of loving anyone or anything that doesn't serve their selfish interest. Life is about loving and it starts with you and I doing our part in it.
Love yourself, love others and spread the fragrance of your influence everywhere you go. Never leave someone worse off than you met them, rather, make them better than you met them. The world is losing humanity and we need more love to sustain all that life has blessed us with. Life is about loving and we all need to do our part in it.
Thank you for your time.
