REALLY, REALLY LOVE!

Friday, 18 July 2008

Who do you really, really love? You'll notice that I put two "reallies" in that phrase. Because when you really, really love someone, it's really, really special!Everyone walks around all day saying things like, "Love You! Love to you, sweetie! Love you lots!" Oh, we throw that word, love, around as if it were a basketball. But seriously, we should have a lot of love for all of mankind.

I told you once what my father told me all the time when I was just a kid. "Dickie," he would say to me, "everyone in the world is related. We all have the same Heavenly father."Oh, my dad, he was such a wise man and I really, really loved him. And you know how much I adored my mom. And then there's my brother who I could just eat up with a spoon. So, I'll ask again, who do you really, really love?Oh, you don't have to tell me but you do have to tell you. It's important to be loved by people and, of course, it's important for you to love people back, too. Remember...love makes the world go round. Love is a many splendored thing. Love to love you, baby!Do you ever or have you ever sat down and made a "Love List?" Oh, I have. And I keep my Love List right next to my bed. You see, we all have our moments of self-doubt. You know, where you lay there in bed thinking about your life. Often times, you think about your failures too, like the plans you did not finish or the things you could have done better. That can lead to your starting to doubt the plans you have for the future and that...you don't need!

That's when you need take a look at your Love List, to remind yourself of the people you love and of the people who love you. The people on your Love List are your support group. Support and love go hand-in-hand. The people on your Love List are the people you trust the most. These are the people you don't have to say things like this to: "If I tell you something, will you promise not to tell a soul?" See, if someone really loves you, well, you already have their trust. You don't have to talk to people on your Love List all the time. Because when you really, really love someone, that kind of love lasts a lifetime.

It's good to wake up in the morning and know that you are loved. To love and being loved is one of life's greatest blessings. Find time today to make out your list of the people in your life you really, really love. Call or E-mail them and remind them of how much you love them and how much you appreciate them being in your life!Remember, love is in the air and it's there, every where you turn!The One Who REALLY, REALLY Loves You,
