Love Is To Be Shared Freely

“Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind, and therefore is winged Cupid painted blind.”

– William Shakespeare

Do you love with no strings attached?

Sometimes we can be harder on family than on strangers. Would you give the shirt off your back for a stranger but not lend a loved one even a spoon full of sugar?

None of us are perfect, it’s easy to fall into the rut of criticism of others. Yet, most of the time, it’s about the condition of our heart first.

To love unconditionally means to love without any conditions or limitations.

Even Uncle Edward, who shoots off his mouth? Perhaps bring a plate of cookies? The sugar can sweeten up the whole crowd. Or, if Edward’s mouth is full, he’ll be quiet.

How might you love differently this season?
