Thich Nhat Hanh talks about The Four Aspects of True Love. The first aspect of true love is maitri, the intention and capacity to offer joy and happiness. To develop that capacity, we have to practice looking and listening deeply so that we know what to do and what not to do to make others happy.

Love, Compassion, Joy and Freedom!
