Love does not seek its own, it does not believe that “finding oneself” is the highest good,’ it is not enamored with self-gain, self-justification, self-worth or self-promotion. You see, someone who is selfless is not looking for personal benefits by loving someone. Someone who gives selfless love is not looking for applause, affirmation, or anything in return. There are no-strings attached to selfless love. Love does not seek its own good.
