How do you get more love in your relationship, in your [music] marriage? The problem is you're looking to get love when the solution is to give love. You don't love someone more because you received from them. Ava, the Hebrew word for love, the root is have, which [music] means to give. Love is because you built an extension of yourself into the other person. We've invested and we've sacrificed for. It's a piece of who we are. And we love it. Therefore, as an extension of ourselves. Love is not an adjective. Love is not about a feeling. Love is a verb. Certainly, you're entitled to want the other to speak your love language. You want to be the subject of their affection and of their giving. The solution to get it is to give it. Give, care, sacrifice. Put the other before yourself. Prioritize the other. And introducing the energy of more love will create a more loving environment. By giving, you'll be getting the love that you seek.
