According to Kahlil Gibran, the author of "The Prophet", the two sides of love are "giving" and "receiving". In the book, the character Almustafa speaks about love and describes how love is not just about giving or receiving, but rather both are essential components of love. He says, "You give but little when you give of your possessions. It is when you give of yourself that you truly give. And in giving, you receive." This quote suggests that love is a reciprocal act where both giving and receiving are necessary for a deep and meaningful connection.!!!!!!!!!
