What a notion. A concept above all other concepts. Something that is simply a part of us. Something that lives within us and has the
ability to grow….forever, if we let it.
Love, if we allow it, can be the answer to all of our questions…to all
of our anxieties…to all of our sorrows.
Love can be found in everything.
It is in the air we breathe, in the breeze in the trees, it’s in the hug
from a loved one or the smile from a stranger.
It’s in the way you put your hand on someone’s shoulder…or on the small
of their back. It’s how you look at
someone.

Love.
I was born into love, so it has always been a part of my life. I am so very
fortunate to be able to say that I have an AMAZING family (I know, here I go again...but just go with it!). Anyways, my parents, my sisters (and their families), my
aunts and uncles, my cousins, my adopted parents and families in Dorseyville
and Ecuador and Germany, my beautiful friends…so many GOOD human beings helped to shape me into the
person I am today…so one thing that I have never lacked in my life has been
Love. I know how very fortunate I am because of that. And as I’ve grown up and lived life….I’ve experienced different kinds of love with different friends,
different loves, different family members…it's a constant, ever-evolving thing, that love. And each person with whom you share love
has their own unique love.
Love.
Love makes us do crazy
things. It makes us take risks that we
may not otherwise take. It makes us
think about life a little differently.
It makes us feel somehow invincible. Love can be scary, but it also gives us the power to believe that anything is possible. It’s something that is a part of our very
being. Something that has it’s own
ideas. Something that shapes us into who
we are. It's such a simple concept, especially if
we allow the love within us to flow freely. Afterall, as Mahatma Ghandi once said, "where there is love, there is life." So what better gift could we give to ourselves than that of loving others and accepting love into our lives?
