A couple visited an orphanage with a view to adopt a boy. As they went around, they found a ten-year old boy who appealed to them greatly. They said to him, "We shall give you toys, story books, T.V & dresses."
The boy didn't seem to be interested.
Then they said to him, "Tell us what is it that you want?"
The little boy said, "I do not want toys or dresses or TV or Story Books. All I want is someone to love me."
Is not this the hunger of every human heart, someone to love us? But this is the paradox of love, that you must love someone before you can receive love. The love that goes out of you to others returns to you. Love moves in a circle: and its you who must make the circle move.
"Love is the irresistible desire to be desired irresistibly"
