start with love…I dare you

Love One Another John 13:34

As incredibly complicated as everything is right now…love is the most fundamental first step to beginning…anything.

Those who know me understand that, with all my foibles (now THERE’S a list), I come from a place of love for people. That’s where I also try and start with each brand new “hello”.

Certainly over 5+ decades, there have been regrettable times where I’ve neglected that love…but I remember, I repair, I restart.

Maybe that same neglect has occurred in others too?

I think it has.

I think it is.

Love is strong and positive. Love is far from powerless and is worth defending.

Love easily trumps hate and anger…if we share it.

Our lives may feel more intense and complicated than merely beginning with love.

But pause for a moment, please, and consider love’s real and universal possibilities.

Watching the world around me, I believe all our lives would be vastly improved if we focused on founding each one upon a gift as simple as love.

Everyday.

I hope this helps.
