Showing love vs. sharing love

Showing love vs. sharing love.

They kind of seem the same.

But I noticed that for me, the idea of showing love has me focused on the actions, and when I’m focused on the actions, I end up being more self focused. 

“Am I doing it right?”  “What do they think of me?” I’m concerned about how my “show” is being received.

When I think of sharing love, I am more thought and feeling focused. I’m thinking about the joy and blessing that someone else is in my life and just sharing and expressing that.  I am present with them in the moment instead of in my head about what happened in the past and what will happen in the future. 

The actions come more naturally and I am more present with the person and my genuine-ness comes across.
