Love is the sun, desire is just a flash. Desire blinds, and the sun gives life. The willing person is ready to make sacrifices, but true love does not know the victims and does not believe the victim - it gives. Love does not take away from one in order to give to another. Love is the essence of life, and you cannot give your life to another. Desire only seems to be a blessing, but it is a flame that scorches the soul, it is a blind and cruel fire.
If you love the body, it is only desire. Love is an attitude to a person, not to his body. And here is the secret of love. All our lives we have been trying to find ourselves. This is a long and difficult path. But how difficult it is to find inner light in another person!
That is why love is not born immediately, only desire immediately arises. Those who cannot distinguish love from desire are doomed to suffering. Those who donate don't love.
The one who has not found himself yet cannot love.

Have you already found yourself?
