True Love Is A Give And Take. Poem by Dr. Antony Theodore

True Love Is A Give And Take.

Rating: 5.0


True love is a give and take.
Love is not greedy after
the property of others.
Jealousy and envy are alien to her.

Love does not make a big show.
She does not play up
and does not push herself forward.

True love is a give and take.
This love does not
seek its own advantage.
She does not exploit the other.
This love does not hurt the other.
She does not get bitter
and does not give in.
This love does not
tolerate injustice.
She is only happy
when everyone gets their rights.

(leaning on the famous passage in the first sacred letter of St. Paul to the people of Corinth)

" This love does not seek its own advantage. She does not exploit the other. This love does not hurt the other." If only more people understood this... Beautiful.
