We must prepare ourselves to be loved. We do this by becoming ourselves loving, disciplined human beings. If we seek to be loved--if we expect to be loved--this cannot be accomplished; we will be dependent and grasping, not genuinely loving. But when we nurture ourselves and others without a primary concern of finding reward, then we will have become lovable, and the reward of being loved, which we have not sought, will find us. So it is with human love and with God's love.

it kind of sums up the love portion of the book.
I have to give this back to the library, but I think I will ask Santa for a copy.
