1. The power of the love you give

When we love, we fill our lives with meaning. It is the energy that drives us, makes us create, change, sacrifice. Love makes us grow, change, and discover new facets of ourselves. But at the same time, it can be painful if it is not reciprocated.

2. Being loved means feeling safe

When you are in someone's heart, it gives a feeling of security. Knowing that you are valued, that they care about you is priceless. But is this enough if you do not have the corresponding feelings? Can you be truly happy if you receive love but do not give it in return?

3. Balance is the key to happiness

The ideal option is mutual love, where giving and receiving are in harmony. Without this, the balance is easily upset: either you lose yourself in boundless feeling, or you live, receiving love, but not feeling true passion.

4. Love should be a choice, not an addiction

It is important not to look for love to fill a void, but to give it, because this is your true desire. And if you have to choose, let it be a choice of the heart, and not of the fear of being left without feelings.

So what is better: to love or to be loved? Perhaps the real answer is to find someone with whom these two feelings merge into one.
