So, did you have a good Valentine? Or did it just pass you without any signs? Well, I want to talk about love for another week.

Obligation without love creates annoyance,
Responsibility without love creates insensitivity,
Justice without love creates harshness,
Truth without love creates fault-finding,
Cleverness without love creates deceit,
Kindness without love creates hypocrisy,
Order without love creates pettiness,
Expertise without love creates obstinacy,
Power without love creates cruelty,
Honour without love creates vanity,
Possession without love creates avarice,
Faith without love creates fanaticism… (Lao-Tse)


I came across these words some months ago and I kept thinking about how values become bad if they lack love. Even more I was fascinated about the turnaround way: if we add love to bad things they can turn into values. This sounds too simple to you? Actually it is that simple. Practicing and turning it into a habit is the difficult part.



Thanks to Eric Prince for this beautiful picture!


Around the world are a lot of people who took the habit to add love to the things they do. Take inspiration!
