LOVE

"Love must be as much a light as it is a flame."

~Henry David Thoreau~

 

Love is a way of being and a way of behaving. It is not something we "fall into" or become sick with. Love is a mode of expression and a generous attitude towards others and towards ourselves. It is compassionate appreciation and forgiveness and acceptance. Love is kind and creative.
     We try to package it and put it outside of ourselves as something to be sought after and something to find. But it is in us. Love is, and will forever and always be, an inside job.

I stop looking to others for love and grow it inside of me.
