Loving someone has great benefits. There is admiration, learning, attraction and something which, for the want of a better word, we call happiness. In loving someone, we become inspired to better ourselves in every way. We learn the true worthlessness of material things. We celebrate being human. Loving is good for the soul... You will also find that it is no great tragedy if your love is not reciprocated. You are not doing it to be loved back. Its value is to inspire you.

We should all be lucky enough to be loved and to love someone in return. That's what this is about.

And that is the trouble with all lovers: they want more love, because they don't understand that the real desire is not for more love, but for something more than love.

At the fourth center of love, one feels a tremendous satisfaction only when energy starts moving to the fifth center.
