The first important question to consider is, "Who in life do I love?"
The challenge for each one of us is are we actively loving them. I find it is those closest to us that we can neglect the most. Here are some quotes on love to encourage you as you ponder this question:
Doc Childre
Our true identity is to love without fear and insecurity. Our higher potential finds us when we set our course in that direction. The power of love and compassion transforms insecurity.
Doc Childre and Sara Paddison
Love is not automatic. It takes conscious practice and awareness, just like playing the piano or golf. However, you have ample opportunities to practice. Everyone you meet can be your practice session.
Jason Jordan
True love does not come by finding the perfect person, but by learning to see an imperfect person perfectly.
Mother Teresa
There is more hunger for love and appreciation in this world than for bread.
Christopher Morley
If we discovered that we had only five minutes left to say all that we wanted to say, every telephone booth would be occupied by people calling other people to stammer that they loved them.
Elizabeth Kubler-Ross
I have never met a person whose greatest need was anything other than real, unconditional love. You can find it in a simple act of kindness toward someone who needs help. There is no mistaking love. You feel it in your heart. It is the common fiber of life, the flame of that heats our soul, energizes our spirit and supplies passion to our lives. It is our connection to God and to each other.
Swedish Proverb
Fear less,
hope more,
eat less,
chew more,
whine less,
breathe more,
talk less,
say more,
love more,
and all good things will be yours.
