" Love, like fire, goes out without fuel. "

To ignite the fire and in order to sustain it, you need the fuel required for the process. Without the fuel, the fire can not stand long. Just like fire, everything in life needs a driving force to keep moving except love.

Love is the only feeling or emotion which happens effortlessly. You don't need to try to love or take action, it happens when you start getting aware of yourself and others. When you accept the world as it is with all its flaws and perfection, there is no need for any fuel to keep the love going.
