Love
Such an illusive concept. I have been reading Bell Hooks book “all about love”, which has given me a lot of wonderful ideas to work on. The first is the concept that love is a verb. The second is love is a choice. The third is how expansive love is - Ms. Hooks describes love as “To truly love we must learn to mix various ingredients — care, affection, recognition, respect, commitment, and trust, as well as honest and open communication” We have such an awesome gift to have the opportunity to love today even if we have never before. We may not have that opportunity tomorrow so I hope I embrace it and choose to love rather than hope that I am loved or that love happens.
