“What does love look like? It has the hands to help others. It has the feet to hasten to the poor and needy. It has eyes to see misery and want. It has the ears to hear the sighs and sorrows of men. That is what love looks like”
— Saint Augustine
Simplified Meaning:
Love is more than just a feeling; it's about doing things to help others. Think of love as having hands that are always ready to help people who need it. Imagine it having feet that quickly go to those who are poor or in trouble. It also has eyes that notice when someone is sad or needs something, and ears that listen to people's problems and pain. For example, if you see a friend struggling with their schoolwork, love is when you take the time to help them understand the lessons better. When you notice someone at work who is stressed, love is offering to grab them a cup of coffee or take over a task to lighten their load. If someone is feeling down, love is being there to listen to them without judgment and comforting them. By acting in these ways, we show love through our actions and attention to others. This approach makes the world a kinder place and builds strong, supportive communities. So, if you want to show love, look for ways to help, listen, and care for the people around you.
