Love is the Lesson

​Giving love can be difficult at times, but receiving love can also be difficult. When we are estranged from someone and they try to reach out to us, we might question their intentions, and, even if those intentions are pure, we might still guard our hearts based on that person’s past performance. If the lesson is love, then learning how to give and receive are the day-to-day applications that reinforce the lesson. We learn the lesson only as we learn to freely give and receive love.
