Good articles, underscoring the point that our happiness comes not from being loved so much as from loving.

Also implied in altruistic love is the capacity to genuinely receive, which can be lacking when we mutate giving into a big enterprise, i.e, a way to control others who have a tendency toward too much dependency. When we really receive, we are letting others give, which is also giving to them.
