A Gift

Leo Buscaglia wrote ..."Love is always bestowed as a gift...freely, willingly, and without expectation. It is offered even when not acknowledged or appreciated. We don't love to be loved, we love to love." I read those words and think... that is me . You know, when you've gifted your heart away a few times and had it flattened with a meat tenderizer, or had it gasping for air because it was being held on to too tightly, or it was simply forgotten about and neglected, then why in the world would you ever do it again? I read those three sentences and I know why. Love should always be given freely. When you love someone you are giving a gift—a gift to them as well as to yourself. Love should never come with conditions or expectations. Love is not a contract between two people it is a union of souls.

Days Like This

Cozy weather days are finally upon us. Overnight rainfall lingers, a damp chill, the kind that soaks deep into your bones, pairs perfectly with the low cloud ceiling, ghostly wisps of grey caressing the tree tops like a lover.  It is a day for favorite sweaters and fuzzy slippers, for hot bevies and good books, for a crackling fire and a toasty warm blanket. It is a day for baking bread and slow simmering soup, for cat naps and dog cuddles.  These small gratitudes help me stay present in this moment, living in the manner of which I’ve always dreamed—simple joys, peaceful mind, happy heart and an abundant life filled with infinite possibilities. There is so much magic in this moment and the entire Universe is just waiting for you to remember. #rainydayvibes #cozysweater #sweaterweather #cozyblanket #soupweather #cozyathome #bakingbread #writerlife✎
