Agape - Love as an Action: Recent Episodes
Reshma Budhia
One of the Greek words for Love is Agape – meaning Love as an Action. For me that is parenting. It is about constantly doing, showing, teaching, learning and feeling love with your child. It is about showing them in action, every day, the different forms of love – sometimes as a friend, sometimes as a teacher, sometimes as a parent and always as a human.
