Display of Power – Point of the Week

LOVE vs. NEED…This week, give some thought to the relationship you may be in. As we enter relationships in our lives, we normally hope that they grow to be something of great value. The traditional way we start is as two people enjoying each other’s company; then hopefully we move more into the area of love, marriage, family, partners and companions for life.

From the beginning to the end, the love and the need for each other should always grow. But ask yourself what is more important – to be loved or to be needed? When a person becomes important in your life, both will play a major part. But “need” can often be a greedy and selfish act on one’s part that eventually damages the relationship.

Those with “TRUE POWER” understand that “THE BEST RELATIONSHIP IS THE ONE IN WHICH YOUR LOVE FOR EACH OTHER EXCEEDS YOUR NEED FOR EACH OTHER.” Have a great week as you put love before need in your relationships.

    In my opinion, id rather be “loved” than “needed” in a sense. I feel, that anyone can be needed for different things but, “love” is unconditional.

    Good point. Always better to be loved than needed as well as knowing that person wants to see rather than has to see u. ? what is your take on someone saying they found someone to complete them. It may be they were lonely or had something missing and then it just completed the happiness. Its not that the person wasn’t happy b4. I just here so may different views.It shouldnt be taken as a negative. thats my opinion

    Sometimes we only focus on loving our partner and forget to love ourselves which causes needy behavior. Balance is key. Great point Daymond.

    Being needed can also be self serving; love is about helping/focusing/giving to others. And when we give, we get. Love comes from a place of abundance and being needed is based upon fear and scarcity. I’ll stick to being loved. GOOD STUFF DAYMOND
