On Love

Let us always meet each other with a smile, for the smile is the beginning of love. ~Mother Teresa

Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends. ~John 15:13

Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind,
And therefore is winged Cupid painted blind.
~William Shakespeare, Mid-Summer Night’s Dream, 1595

Love is a choice. ~(Melissa)

Love is like dew that falls on both nettles and lilies. ~Swedish Proverb

Love is an action. ~(Melissa)

‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ ~Matthew 22:37-39

Love is always bestowed as a gift – freely, willingly and without expectation. We don’t love to be loved; we love to love. ~Leo Buscaglia

Valentine’s Day – a day set aside for love. Remember, love is not limited to romantic relationships. Love is something you can choose to give yourself, something you can choose to give those around you, an attitude you can embrace.

Wishing you a (LOVE)ly day.

Happy Valentine’s Day!
