In all sports, it's defense that wins games. The offense scores and is obviously impressive, but it's defense that allowed that score. Defense determines who wins.
The same is true in life. Life is hard. Once in a while, someone is called to act heroically, but I contend that that would not have happened, if that someone wasn't responding loving every day. Picking up after oneself, and even others, helping people, will automatically encourage the once in a lifetime heroic act. Doing the right thing day after day will come naturally, when one is called upon.
Just like the defense player in any game, who practices defense every day, will automatically react, so will responding with love. Doing the right thing, all the time should become automatic. Be on the defense from laziness, sloth, apathy, and lethargy.
