Lao Tzu
One method of practicing love is to attempt to find ways to agree with others. This is not the same as giving up your individuality or point of view. It is not the same as becoming a pushover for those who would control you. It is the careful investigation of where you have points of agreement with another being. From these shared points of agreement comes a softening of boundaries and an opening to understanding the life, trials and victories in the people around us. This gives rise to a feeling of safety and belonging in the world.
