"本当の愛とは、私たちに苦痛をもたらし、傷つけ、それでいて喜びを与えてくれる愛のことです。それが、私たちが神に祈り、愛する勇気を与えてくださるようお願いしなければならない理由です。"
— Mother Teresa
Simplified Meaning:
Loving someone deeply can sometimes cause us sadness or hurt, such as when we worry about them, argue, or see them go through tough times. Even with these painful moments, the joy and happiness we get from this love are worth it. Just like when parents worry about their children but still find joy in their growth and achievements, love involves both pain and happiness. Because it can be challenging to deal with these mixed emotions, we need inner strength and bravery. Asking for courage, whether through prayer or reflection, helps us stay strong and continue loving others even when it's hard. This way, we embrace the full experience of true love, with all its ups and downs.
