       So, the Royal Law is, “You shall love your neighbor as yourself.” Do you see that you are giving something? We are giving love. What does that mean? In order to give, we need to have. In other words, if we don’t have love within us, coming out from us, how can we give? We know this type of person when we are in their company. That is, the person understands love better than most. They are able to practice love very effectively because selfishness has been surpassed; it has been relinquished. What are some words we could use to describe love? Affection, tenderness, compassion, adoration, appreciation of, caringness, fondness, friendship, goodwill, sympathy, best wishes, good regard. I cannot show care or concern for another if I don’t have care and concern for myself. One cannot show goodwill toward another if they are of ill-will toward themselves.
