| On my fridge are three pictures sent to me by great-grandsons. This is love. They know I love ducks. |
Most of you have heard the quote by George Sand, "There is only one happiness in this life--to love and be loved." This I believe wholeheartedly. The small, simple gestures like a quick text with a heart or an "I love you," makes for a happy heart. Feeling loved cannot be topped in the happiness scale. Many things can be going wrong all around us but if we are loved we can survive anything.
Here are some quotes about LOVE:
Love one another deeply from the heart. -1 Peter 1:22
In our life, there is a single color, as on an artist's palette, which provides the meaning to life and art.
It is the color of love. -Marc Chagall
Love one another and you will be happy. It's as simple and as difficult as that. -Michael Leunig
Love is above, above all, the gift of oneself. -Jean Anouilh
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails. -1 Corinthians 13:4-8
We can only learn to love by loving. -Iris Murdoch
Love is not only something you feel. It is something you do. -David Wilkerson
Every man [woman] feels instinctively that all the beautiful sentiments in the world weigh less than a single lovely action. -James Russell Lowell
There is no remedy for love but to love more. -Henry David Thoreau
To love and be loved is to feel the sun from both sides. -David Viscott
Only love lets us see normal things in an extraordinary way. -Alejandro De Salminihac
One word frees us of all the weight and pain in life. That word is love. -Sophocles
Love comforteth like sunshine after rain. -William Shakespeare
Our echoes roll from soul to soul and grow forever and ever. -Alfred, Lord Tennyson
What a grand thing, to be loved! What a grander thing still, to love! -Victor Hugo
Love is everything it's cracked up to be . . . . It really is worth fighting for, being brave for, risking everything for. -Erica Jong
Love on!
