Mikhail BulgakovBut what can be done, the one who loves must share the fate of the one he loves.
About This Quote
When we love someone, we want to share their happiness and pain. Of course, one might say that such a thing would be unfair. However, love is not about fairness. It’s about giving and receiving joy. When we give to others what we would like them to give to us, we make them happy, and when we receive what we would like to give to others, we make ourselves happy.
