What is the difference between ‘take’ and ‘receive’? Yes, both are actions taken and both recipients are the same person, but, the former is done based on our own will while the latter is based on the free will of others. We choose to take what we desired, be it something belongs to us or not and we receive what the others want us to have, could be something we desired or what they think we would be. Very often, we take love from the others, and receiving it at the same time. It is undeniable that we need love to survive in this world, to avoid from trapping ourselves in darkness which does not exist in the first place, to keep the circle goes round. Receive is somehow equals to accept, whereby we accept what we received but not everything we received is what we can accept. We tend to take things for granted, receiving what the others are giving us and sometimes not able to accept them, for they might not be what we desired. It is to take, to receive or to accept?
