The deepest love seems to be unconcerned about getting something from the other.
Mother Teresa encouraged us to love until it hurts.
I have experienced this in living and practicing love in action toward my wife over many years . But, I could not express it like this quote. I loved Debbie until it hurt and I dropped the need to get from her in order to give. I moved pass the hurt and then there was only more capacity for love. Life is amazing when we allow it to happen moment to moment. It teaches us if we have eyes to see , ears to hear, and a heart to understand.
