What is real love? Par le Rabbi Dr. Abraham Twerski “Love is a word that in our culture has almost lost it’s meaning.” Please find herewith a beautiful imagined story about a young man eating and ‘loving’ fish. The rabbi presents love for the other in most cases as a vehicle to meet our own needs !… “Too much love is fish-love, it’s not what I’m going to give, but what I’m going to get. People make a serious mistake in thinking, that you give to those who you love, but the real answer is, you love thoses to whom you give. The point is, if I give something to you, I have invested myself in you. Since selflove is a given, everybody loves themselves, but now that part of me is becoming you, there is a part of me in you that I love. So true love is a love of giving, not of receiving.”
