Love is speaking kindly to yourself when you put on a bathing suit.

Love is giving yourself permission to sit and read, bake, or create when the to-do list is crushing your spirit.

Love is reconnecting with a childhood friend who knew you when.

Love is the laughter of littles as you read them a story.

Love is seeing the person who needs help and helping.

Love is the smell of blueberry pancakes on a Sunday morning.

Love is the cat that rubs against your legs or sits beside you.

Love is in the words, how was your day?

Love is letting go of control.

Love is gazing up at the night sky and feeling awe.

Love is choosing kindness.

Love is the light that shines on dark thoughts that create unrest.

Love is remembering the love that was shown to us by those who’ve passed and allowing that love to shine.
