These are simple active ways to express your love towards nature, persons, friends, family, cultures, animals...

You can call these "acts of kindness"

Here is how you can see love:

"Love is the recognition of a common essence"

"You see your essence in someone else or another living form"

Here are simple active ways to express your love:

• Look in the eyes

When you interact with someone, look straight and deep in the eyes. It's magical and connects your essences.

• Physical contact

Any occasion you have to physically touch someone, do it! Hug! Hand shake! kiss!

• Call!

Or initiate contact in whatever way you can.

• Listen!

This allows others to share and know you hear them.

• Embrace differences!

Never reject someone because they have a different opinion, belief or culture than yours. Our human essence goes beyond these differences. You are first human!

• Validate!

Yes! Compliment! Point out the positives. Be actively thankful for another person's input in your life.

• Help!

Give a hand when any living being need it. Nature, animals or humans.

• Share!

Share what you have with those who need it. Give!

• Protect!

Animals! Kids! Nature!

• Free!

Offer and stimulate freedom as a gift!
