How it harms one\u2019s pride, confidence, and instinct of self-protection. How difficult it is to trust in love; it gives no guarantees. Love entails running risks and looking foolish. Love demands bravery against humiliation and some relinquishment of power. Daring to love can imply giving up one\u2019s very balance. No one guarantees that he or she will not abuse your disposition; no one assures you requited love. For some, perhaps it is easier to traverse the world than to open their hearts, for opening one\u2019s heart allows two diametrically opposed and equally probable things to happen: a horrible deed to your good will or reciprocity in good faith and love understood. Daring to love is of the brave, venturing to cast your pearls into unknown hands is fate. Your love could be underestimated and your virtues never seen. But you would have done the right thing, because just as bread is given to those\u00a0who eat and seed to those who plant; love is given to those who love. And if you do not receive it from that person in whom you decided to sow your love, then in due time- perhaps not instantly- you will receive it from the tireless and timeless fountain of love, from He who is love in itself. You and your heart were made to give and receive love. Give love, sow love, for we are all here interwoven in the same net. Sooner or later the deeds of love that you planted will return to you with all the respective and fascinating contributions of the others in whom you never sowed.<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on get_the_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on get_the_excerpt --><\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[68],"tags":[52,54,55],"class_list":["post-68","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-love","tag-love-en","tag-relationships-en","tag-romance-en-en"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/good-words.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/68"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/good-words.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/good-words.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/good-words.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/good-words.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=68"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/good-words.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/68\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":185,"href":"https:\/\/good-words.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/68\/revisions\/185"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/good-words.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=68"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/good-words.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=68"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/good-words.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=68"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
