Finding Real Love

Not all that goes for love is really love. We often misinterpret love. A man can love his wife and children, and he can love spaghetti. But when we love a food, we actually love ourselves, and the tasty food just provides the gratification of our desire. We can love people in the same way. A man may love a woman because she satisfies his needs. He really then loves himself, and the woman is just a vehicle for providing gratification. True love is not self-centered. It exists when we are ready to sacrifice our convenience and pleasures for the wellbeing and happiness of another person.
