"Love is a verb. Love-the feeling-is a fruit of love, the verb. So love. Serve. Sacrifice. Listen. Empathize. Appreciate.

Affirm. Are you willing to do that?" ~  Stephen R. Covey

I get it. Yes, I'm willing. How about you? Surely most of us want the fruit. We thrive on the sweetness, the joy, the excitement, the caring, the hope, the upliftment, all the good things that come as a result of acting with love. 

So let's put love into action. In times of uncertainty, like the one we're in, stress can cause us to forget this truth. Let's commit to remember to love, stretch to love, reach to love, and act with love to everyone and everything by listening, serving, sacrificing, respecting, helping, forgiving, appreciating, and all the other ways we'll recognize when they arise. 

Choosing to love will help us all and help us through.

Truly,
Charlene
