Love Love Love

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.

Take Time

Take time to take.....
~the small gifts so hesitatingly offered by a friend
~the proud handmade present from a child.

Take time to listen.....
~to the old man's too often told tale
~to a husband's words of love.

Take time to share......
~a moment with a lonely soul for loneliness shared becomes love.
~a sorrow with a bereaved friend, for sorrow shared becomes comfort.

Take time to touch.....
~another human which means I care for you, I trust you..
~another life for that is what life is all about.

Take time for each other..... for nothing else is that important.

Take time to live, to dance for fun, to sing for joy, to paint or sew or create a beautiful gift.

Take time to watch.....


~the snow swirling outside the windowpane,

~the flames dancing in the fireplace.

I LOVE YOU CAN BE EXPRESSED IN SO MANY WAYS...
