loved and lost, than never to have loved at all”. He said these words in 1850.

Good Mind Cultivation is to see love through the experiences of others. Ask immediate family members or a close friend to recall times when they experienced love and how they felt about it. Don’t try to explain your real intentions. Simply listen. Begin to understand the emotional feelings they experienced. This will help in building a self-awareness of love for future situations.
Self love :List your positive attributes and reflect on them daily this will help overcome negative beliefs about yourself. Never call yourself names, as this only reinforces a negative self belief. You are unique.
Mindful of confusion: Love is an emotional desire to connect with and be close to another person. It creates within us a feeling of attraction to someone not based on his or her outward appearance, but the qualities that encompass his or her inner self. Lust, on the other hand, is skin-deep. It is based on another person’s physical aspects that are most readily available from our eyes. By nature, lust requires no work. Its satisfaction is easily obtained with a glance or a brief interaction.
