Religion consists much in holy affection; but those exercises of affection which are most distinguishing of true religion are these practical exercises. friendship between earthly friends consists much in affection; but those strong exercises of affection that actually carry them through fire and water for each other are the highest evidences of true friendship.
Strong True Friend Exercise
Even more important than the warmth and affection we receive, is the warmth and affection we give. it is by giving warmth and affection, by having a genuine sense of concern for others, in other words through compassion, that we gain the conditions for genuine happiness. more important than being loved, therefore, is to love.
Compassion Concern For Others Giving
There are three possible parts to a date, of which at least two must be offered: entertainment, food, and affection. it is customary to begin a series of dates with a great deal of entertainment, a moderate amount of food, and the merest suggestion of affection. as the amount of affection increases, the entertainment can be reduced proportionately. when the affection is the entertainment, we no longer call it dating. under no circumstances can the food be omitted.
Love Inspirational Witty
A prayer refuse to fall down if you cannot refuse to fall down, refuse to stay down. if you cannot refuse to stay down, lift your heart toward heaven, and like a hungry beggar, ask that it be filled. you may be pushed down. you may be kept from rising. but no one can keep you from lifting your heart toward heaven only you. it is in the middle of misery that so much becomes clear. the one who says nothing good came of this, is not yet listening.
Prayer Fall Heart
Friends, genuine friends, are attracted by a warm heart, not money, not power. a genuine friend considers you as just another human being, as a brother or sister, and shows affection on that level, regardless of whether you are rich or poor, or in a high position; that is a genuine friend.
