You Can Not Love Without Giving

Posted by Elva 
· December 27, 2011 

“You can give without loving,” says Robert Louis Stevenson, “but you can not love without giving.”  Giving includes touch, a smile, listening, compliments, noticing what someone does right. Saying, “I love you” nurtures the relationship. Gifts come in many forms. Attention to exits and entrances (good-byes and welcome home) can make those we love feel special and cared about.

As children mature they discover that they get more joy from giving than they do from receiving. In the same way as love matures people find that giving brings more pleasure and fun than receiving. Giving does not belong exclusively to Christmas. For love to thrive giving continues all year. It increases the adventure and joy of the relationship. How have you gifted the one you love today? Try increasing those gifts each day in 2012.
