Today's thought is:
Love is a great beautifier.
--Louisa May Alcott
How do we feel when someone says, "I love you"? Do we feel a rush of warmth throughout our bodies? Do we walk a little taller? Do smiles come more easily to our lips? Words of love are inspirational. They bring out the best in us; perhaps they even encourage us to move in new directions, set new goals, attempt the unfamiliar.
Loving and being loved soften the hard edges of life. No stormy day is really bleak when we share it with a loving friend. No formidable challenge is too overwhelming when a loved one is nudging us forward, certain of our capacity to succeed. And the mirror reflects brighter eyes and fewer lines when we carry the knowledge that we're loved.
Let's share this knowledge with someone else now, and spread the beauty around us.

Liz,
That was extremely expressive, my heart thawed as I read it. Love is indeed a beautiful thing. I think the most wonderful thing is, is when the person you love, loves you back just as much. Its a complete circle, and you feel this serenity, this peace and contentment, that no money can ever buy, nor anyone can sweat for.
Love is not found in an online game, its cant be forced out of someone, it cant be bought...love is accepting people for who they are, the good and the bad, and being around them and telling them all the time they/he/she mean/s so much to you.
Thanks for posting that, Liz.
