I agree with the sentiment but the phrasing is a bit blunt. To be healthy people need to give and receive love. In equal measure to keep a balance. Give too much you are hollowed, take too much you are bloated.

The lesson, presumably, love as much as you can. Form a circuit with those people important and dear. Love flowing both ways. Feeding off each other for the mutual benefit and improvement of both.

You cannot pour so much love into someone it banishes their self consciousness and doubt. Nor can one person give you so much love it raises your self worth from low to high. Love will not fix you. You need to look inward before looking outward.

The act of loving is important. It's revitalizing, exciting, and necessary to a happy life. We are not creatures governed by hunger and procreation alone. We are complex feeling beings that require not only physical nourishment but mental and spiritual sustenance as well.

"There is no hope for us in this painful, mysterious world save in giving ourselves to love." -Byron Caldwell Smith
