Dr. Wayne Dyer frequently shares an example which I love. He says that when we squeeze an orange what comes out is orange juice. Not apple juice. Not carrot juice. But orange juice is what comes out of an orange.
Why? Because that’s what is inside an orange.
We only give what we have inside of us. If we want to give love, you refill yourself with love and then and only then you will be able to share it.
We have to invite love to be with us 24/7. The more we fill ourselves with love (real love, not pleasure seeking i, me, myself love), we have loads of it to give to others.
And when we begin to give to others, we receive loads of love back in return. It is a self-replenishing cycle. Give yourself love, that helps you to give others love and you get back tons of it.
Wow. How cool is that! And one would never guess it started with an orange:)
