We really are looking for love in all the wrong places.
Where is the love?
What if we spent a month looking for love? Or just a day.
I am not meaning finding a boyfriend or new beau or someone to love.
I am talking about finding ways that love is shown to me or you, by a word, a gesture, an act, a text, an article.
In subtle ways.
Ways that we overlook everyday. Acts that go ignored.
What if we looked for love throughout our day. We recognize it. We honor it.
We see that we were noticed.
When a man holds the door open for me rather than me thinking he is just doing it… but he is doing it out of love.
When I get a text message from someone that I have not heard from in a while, just checking on me. Seeing that she/he is sending it out of love.
My sister calls and ask me to come visit… out of love.
The man at the next table smiled at me… out of love.
Someone fixing something for me when I did not ask… out of love.
The person in front of me in line offering for me to check out first… out of love.
Unexpected card in the mail just to me… out of love.
A penny on the ground… out of love.
Heart shaped leaf … out of love.
I often talk about with my clients that you will find what you are looking for. If you are looking to find fault with someone, you will find it. If you are looking for the ways someone loves you, you will find it. It’s your choice.
So what do you choose to look for today?
I choose LOVE!
(Post below your findings of love from your day today…tonight!) Lets get on the love train. yeah thats cheesy!
Then after we “get it” … then how can we start to love out? How do we send love back out into the world? The same way we received it… a word, a small gesture, an act of kindness….
