Love - 25

We need friendship and love in our lives.
We need someone to worry about, and someone to worry about us.
When we are worried about someone, the world makes sense to us. It is concern about others that gives us character. In fact, we are our worries.
If we are not worried about someone or something, we are nothing.
If we only worry about ourselves, we get caught in an empty vicious circle.
We need them to need us.
We need to appreciate those who appreciate us
