Love . . . .

It's universal

and knows no bounds

it has infinite power to change lives

does not divide . . . but multiplies

it lives within all of us

and is not something you can keep just for yourself

strong, yet so fragile

and should be nothing but unconditional

it's an expression of yourself

and being open to the expression of others

it represents compassion and affection

and when used appropriately it is . . . colorblind

supporting, yet not overbearing

 a basic human need

and a deep spiritual connection in the depth of your soul

understanding and forgiving

although sometimes it's complicated

it has a unique ability to stretch the heart

 patient and kind

definitely not boastful

one huge requirement is acceptance

and it should include random acts of kindness

sometimes, it just feels like and unexplainable mystery

a feeling that is hard to define

it's sharing, believing and dreaming

and it endures all, hopes all, and bears all things

it is spoken in different languages all over the world

and in unselfishly expressed actions

it hurts when that special someone doesn't feel it back

something that can make you laugh and cry at the same time

there is no age limit

you feel this when you genuinely care for someone

a parent, a child, a friend

but, let's also not keep it from strangers

sometimes it's scary

our words put into action

it can be passionate and romantic

and it will have its highs and lows

sometimes sadness and tears will come with it

songs are written about it

it is expressed in our art

and millions of words have been spoken about it

the bible says to do this to our neighbors as we would do unto ourselves

it may not make the world go around, but it's a really good place to start

and is something no one should ever be without

it seems to be one of the most motivating emotions know to man...

It's called LOVE and I hope it spreads like wildfire!

I {heart} you,

Kim
