True happiness lies in giving love, not in receiving it.

How are you? I hope you are well, spending your days in your own way. I am also fairly well, but today I am writing with a slightly different feeling. Sometimes, some thoughts come to mind that cannot be told to anyone, they only silently revolve inside you. Today, I wanted to write about one such feeling—a small realization, but so deep that it shakes you inside.

Feeling: Selfless Love

Many people think that love means receiving, but I think the real joy lies in giving. When you want to give something to someone, without any expectations, a strange peace works in your heart. That feeling is difficult to explain in words, but it is very easy to feel.

Below are some lines born from that feeling of mine—

I never wanted love, yet I fell in love
I didn't look for my own image in someone's eyes, I only saw their smile
I sit alone on a silent night and think, why do I do this
I don't get an answer, yet my heart says—this is true
There is no greed for receiving anything, no calculation
I find my nature only in wanting to give
Sometimes pain comes, yet my heart doesn't break
Because love means fighting with myself
I want to hold someone's hand, just to give strength
To forget myself and be by their side
If they smile, it seems like everything is okay
My world lives on their joy
There is nothing to want, yet I feel like I have got everything
Because when you give love, your heart becomes lighter
This feeling is perhaps the greatest victory in life
