"Specifics" Listing

A friend of mine posed this question to me: What does LOVE bring with it? Simply put, “What does LOVE entail?”

So I thought: I should break it down to SPECIFICS; otherwise, it’s a ”floating love” – simply an idea, not seen in deeds and kept to oneself ...

Here goes my list:

1. Caring
2. Serving
3. Teaching
4. Forgetting oneself
5. Lifting spirits
6. Accompanying
7. Helping to grow
8. Communicating
9. Listening
10. Trusting
11. Sharing
12. Being refined
13. Being supportive
14. Understanding defects
15. Forgoing preferences
16. Not being possessive
17. Correcting
18. Praying
19. Showing the way
20. Thinking
21. Knowing
22. Enkindling
23. Being humble
24. Not abandoning
25. Not dictating
26. Being there in trials
27. Showing affection
28. Sacrificing
29. Enjoying
30. Persevering

Whew! What a list!

Don't worry... very soon, with time and practice, it will all be part of you.

You might even add more to the list ...
