Today’s book: The Art of Loving by Erich Fromm—a timeless exploration of how love isn’t just an emotion—it’s a skill that requires awareness, effort, and personal growth.
Here’s your 1-minute summary:
- Love is an art, not a passive experience. Just like any skill, it requires practice, dedication, and learning.
- Mature love is about giving, not just receiving. True love isn’t about possession—it’s about care, respect, and commitment.
- Self-love is the foundation of loving others. You can’t give what you don’t have—love starts with accepting yourself.
- Love requires discipline. It’s not just about passion or emotions—it’s about consistently choosing to show up for another person.
- Love is about connection, not control. The healthiest relationships allow each person to grow while staying deeply connected.
Love isn’t something you find—it’s something you practice. What’s one way you can love more intentionally today?
