Love is not about possession

Osho’s quote, “Love is not about possession. Love is about appreciation,” serves as a beautiful reminder of the true essence of love. Genuine love isn’t about trying to own or control someone else, as that can lead to unhealthy dynamics like jealousy and control. Instead, real love focuses on valuing and appreciating the other person for who they are. It’s about recognizing and loving their unique qualities without the desire to change them.

This perspective on love encourages us to build healthier, more fulfilling relationships by fostering mutual respect and freedom. By giving our loved ones the space to be themselves and regularly expressing our appreciation for them, we create deeper and more meaningful connections. This approach leads to a love that is liberating and respectful, aligning with the true nature of appreciation and understanding.
