Love your friend as yourself means you stand ready to fulfill the desires of each and every one.
When we do good to others, we touch them in two ways:
- First, the good we do to them improves their lives and it benefits them in a positive and constructive way, and
- Second, people instinctually sense other people's internality - call it a vibe, a feeling, spider senses, a look - there's just something you pick up and you KNOW if someone is for you or not, if they love you or not. So if we do good to other out of love, they'll sense it and it'll touch them even more deeply. In fact, it will awaken within them a reciprocal love.
If we all seek to benefit others instead of ourselves, we'll become connected in mutual bestowal.
