Love

"Love and resentments are incompatible atomic substances.
Thus, resentments of any kind cannot exist within love.
Love is eternal forgiveness.

Love exists within those who feel true anguish for the suffering of
their friends and enemies. True love exists in those who work with all of their
heart for the well-being of the humble, of the poor, of the needy.

Love exists within those who, in a natural and spontaneous manner, 
feel sympathy for the peasant who waters the field with the sweat of his body,
or for the villager who suffers, or for the begger who asks for alms, 
or for the humble dog who, in anguish and sickness, dies of hunger on the 
side of the road.

Authentic generosity, true sympathy, and love exist when we help someone
with all of our heart; when in a natural and spontaneous manner
-without anyone demanding it from us- we take care of a tree
and water the flowers of a garden. . .

. . .We must be generous from our very heart, since true generosity 
is not of the mind; authentic generosity
is the perfume of the heart."
~S.A.W
