All You Need is Love.
February 12, 2024
Love. Love. Love. All you need is Love.
As a continuation from last month... The last few months, especially December through January, I had a lot of time to reflect on what life is meaning to me these days. I have read some meaningful books about purpose. The last one was
Strength in Purpose by Elizabeth Dixon. (Be sure to checkout the book I read in January - AMAZING MUST READ - it was mentioned in my
January blog) Highly recommend both f you are at a stage in your life where you are feeling called to look at how you are living your life and if you feel like you should be doing more for yourself... for others.
And for the month of February and in your everyday life, here are a few things that inspired me on LOVE...I listened to a couple of podcasts and sermons this month that so happened to reflect on LOVE. I highly recommend listening to (even if you aren't religious or spiritual).

This bible verse was read at my wedding as it is in many weddings. It is the way to live in love through and through:
Love is always patient and kind. It is never jealous. Love is never boastful or conceited. It is never rude or selfish. It does not take offense and is not resentful. Love takes no pleasure in other people’s sins, but delights in the truth. It is always ready to excuse, to trust, to hope, and to endure whatever comes. - 1 Corinthians 13:4-7
And another lovely message:
You, yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe,
deserve your love and affection. - Buddha

" Y'all, VIcki was the sweetest! I am all the way in Kentucky and needed some help sending some special love. She listened to my need and took care of exactly what I wanted. This is such a great way to let someone know you are thinking about them in an extra special way. Thank you so much VIcki for the special attention, that is what makes a good business great!" – Heather R.
