OTHERS >>> 3. Loving others (love thy neighbor)

The pillars of love constitute:

Unconditional; Without conditions or limitations (you do not love others only when they fulfil your requirements)

Accepting; Favorable reception; approval; belief in their potential

Forgiving; providing absolution; pardon; end of blame for their deeds

Self sacrificing; Sacrifice your personal wants or well-being for a common/shared cause

Passionate; Fired with intense feeling for you’re the relationship with others

Devoting; To give over or vow yourself to a shared higher purpose

Belief; The mental act, or habit of placing trust or confidence others

Commitment; The state of being bound emotionally or intellectually to the relationship with others

Patience; The capacity of enduring hardship or inconvenience without complaint

A change agent can only be effective when they love others for who they are. Without that, it will be hard to bring yourself to their level of thinking & direction in life.

Only when you care for others sincerely, will you be able to do the right things for them and put yourself in a position to gain their trust … which is the bedrock for shared growth & opportunities.

If you cannot love others, how can you awaken the giant in them & infuse great purpose into their lives?
