A Real Love:

Put it this way. Writer Frederick Buechner in Wishful thinking wondered if people were truly living their lives. He posed probing questions.
Have you wept at anything during the past year?
Has your heart beat faster at the sight of young beauty?
Have you thought seriously about the fact that someday you are going to die?
In conversation, do you really listen or are you just waiting for your turn to speak?
Is there anybody you know in whose place, if one of you had to suffer great pain, you would volunteer yourself?
Question is “Are we living real love”.
