Most Americans' (and Canadians') view of love is primarily influenced by one or more of these. Before one gets married, one needs to disavow all of these things as remotely realistic depictions of how couples are to love each other. Loving is an action, and if your concept of the act of loving is based primarily in self-fulfillment and emotion, your relationships are all doomed to fail.

“Prayer changes people.  People change things.”  Prayer is a hopeful response to a fearful situation.  Not as a substitute for possible action, but rather as a catalyst for a (perhaps simple) act of kindness.  A “ripple of hope” can occur if the Golden Rule is included in the prayerful reflection.  This Norman Rockwell painting, which was at the New-York Historical Society, is deeply inspiring.  From the Christian tradition, the “Parable of the Good Samaritan” further describes the meaning of compassion.  (Photo taken on August 17, 2018)
