Imagine extending your arms out straight to your sides and serving as a pipe. Now, imagine a spigot on each of your wrists. If both spigots are open, water flows through. If you turn off one spigot, the flow stops. It’s the same way with love. Receiving love is one spigot and giving love is the other spigot. Both spigots have to be open for love to flow through the pipe. To receive love, we have to give love. Â
