#2 One plus one equals two

If your inner landscape yearns for love, have you decorated your outer landscape for romance?

Does your personal space display your relationship’s intentions?

Tip for today: Notice your outer landscape. Walk with fresh eyes around your home and notice what dominates the story. Kids? Work? School? Hobbies? T.V.? If you want more, what can you remove to make more space?

“Love does not dominate; it cultivates.”

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Turning our focus towards ‘love’ in February!

Immature love says: ‘I love you because I need you.’ Mature love says ‘I need you because I love you.’

Erich Fromm

Love is friendship that has caught fire. It is quiet understanding, mutual confidence, sharing and forgiving. It is loyalty through good and bad times. It settles for less than perfection and makes allowances for human weaknesses.

Ann Landers

There is no remedy for love but to love more.

Henry David Thoreau

We can only learn to love by loving.

Iris Murdoch

The first duty of love is to listen.

Paul Tillich

Let us take care

Let us take care of the children,
For they have a long way to go
Let us take care of the Elders,
For they have come a long way
Let us take care of those in between,
For they are doing the Work.”
Nelson Mandela
