"Love comes when manipulation stops; when you think more about the other person than about his or her reactions to you. When you dare to reveal yourself fully. When you dare to be vulnerable"

This quote speaks with the importance of authentic love and connection. It recommends that when we stop attempting to control or manage the other individual, and instead concentrate on their requirements and sensations, love can blossom. It also motivates us to be brave and open to the other individual, to reveal our true selves and be vulnerable. This is a threat, however it is required for real love to develop. It is only when we are willing to be vulnerable and truthful that we can really get in touch with another person. By doing so, we can develop a strong and lasting bond of love.
