Love is one of the frequent positive emotions experienced by many. It encompasses all positive emotions: joy, awe, interest, hope, amusement, gratitude, pride, and inspiration. In addition, we become connected when we love our partner, family, children, and friends.
With the feeling of love, we can play, explore, savor, dream, etc. Love desire is to be shared; its nature is to link, to unify. To express love, we need to learn to love ourselves. If you don’t love yourself, you might be more critical of ourself and so not be in the right frame of mind to express love. You might engage in behaviors like negative self-talk.
These thought patterns can generate feelings of anxiety, sadness, or hopelessness.
An essential ingredient for happiness, success, and popularity is positive feelings.
Self-love is key to living a good life.
We can build trust, bonds, health, and a community with love. Love is as critical for our mind and body as oxygen. The more connected you are, the healthier you will be physically and emotionally.
Love is probably the best antidepressant because one of the most common sources of depression is feeling unloved.
