Reciprocity, a key component of mutuality, is a universal energy where we give our spark to others and they to us. This exchange is love in action, living in love, right where we are. Nothing is one sided. I respond to you and you to me; together we look up higher than any height we could reach on our own. We know the song of each other’s heart, and together we sing our own duet, easing our pain and intensifying our joy.

—Alexandra Stoddard, Living in Love
