Love is easy if you know how

Erich Fromm defined love is a power that produced love, it’s not the object you’re painting, but the process of learning to paint. It’s not admiring flowers from afar, it’s the act of nurturing them so they don’t die. It’s an ‘attitude’, a ‘power of the soul’, or an orientation of character wich determines the relatedness of a person to the world as a whole

Love is about acceptance. Accept other’s flaws and ours. To accept ourself, of course we have to know ourself. Love isn’t always about relationships with significance others, it can be relationship with your work, family, friends, and also God. Don’t let ‘society rules’ define your love. It’s okay to be single in your 30s if it’s comfort you
