"Love is the beginning, the middle and the end. It is everything!" ~Mama Hen
To love and to be loved is everything! Without it what would there be? Who would we be? It is the one thing we all crave and strive for in our lives. However, we often can take it for granted. Life has a way of throwing stress and responsibilities in our way and we can become sidetracked from what is most important. Loss has a way of reminding us that we need to tell the people we love just how much they mean to us as often as possible. On this Thanksgiving Thursday I want to make sure that the people who are so special to me know it! Have a wonderful day and make it a point to call a loved one and simply say "I love you!"
Thanksgiving Thursday
1.) Little Chick and my family.
2.) Love. Thank God that I have always known what it feels like to be loved and to be able to love.
3.) For being able to use technology to stay in touch with the people that are so dear to me. It allows us all to spread love.
4.) Unconditional love. To know what it is and to know what it feels like to have it. Priceless!
5.) True love. To understand what it is and to not take it for granted.
I love stopping by here . . . it's like getting a big hug from an old friend. Is that strange? And I love how you find time, each and every week, to share your Thanksgiving Thursdays with us. Your gratitude continues to inspire me - and I am to grateful for you.
ReplyDeleteThanks, also, for the really heartfelt comment you left earlier this week. I really mean when I say that I feel like I'm visiting a dear friend when I stop here.
Have a wonderful night!
I love stopping by your blog in the morning it always makes me smile, and thats the best way to start my day. I agree with you, love is the most important thing. I know when my daughter puts her arms around me and says "I love you" I melt every time.

Thank you for posting this today. I lost my Grandpa last week and though I didn't have the great pleasure of knowing him well, one thing he always said was, "Love makes the world go round!" This is a great post that hit home today.

I love, love. It is everything and it so important. It is important to love and not be afraid of it, to embrace it and hold on to it and to give it out. I love the post and the pictures they were so sweet and the last one with love for the kitty. Priceless :)
