To love others means we often have to put ourselves aside. We have to put our thoughts, needs, desires on hold, while we do what we need to do to care for a loved one in ways that matter. As we do the work to support our loved one, we can focus on who they are, what they mean to us, and what we can do for them today and into the future. To deeply focus on one another makes us all stronger and better. To make time for this is essential to good living.
