I wrote about that special ingredient called love before and I wrote about neighbourly love too. I suppose there’s much to write about love. Wikipedia explains love – “Love encompasses a range of strong and positive emotional and mental states, from the most sublime virtue or good habit, the deepest interpersonal affection, to the simplest pleasure”
Today, I want to bring your attention to the power to love, the authority to love, and the choices to love one another. Sometimes our choices to love are made unconsciously, and yet it brought about a lifetime of contentment and happiness. The question arises then, If I applied love once, should it not be enough? Love does not work this way, to love, you must consciously continue to do so. How do we keep caring and keep loving?
I recall that when my daughter was much younger, we would say to one another I love you and I would say I love you more and she would reply saying I love you to infinity and beyond, making her the “winner” of loving me more. We all have the power to love and today I want to encourage us all to use our powers and implement love. To have that eagerness to love one another more, to overcome hate and negativity by overshadowing it with positive emotional love.
Thinking you are more important makes you inappropriate and takes away love.

Very true, love is something that we need to keep striving and working for. In romance, love isn’t complete at marriage. The couple need to wake up every day and find new reasons to fall more in love. What you have with your daughter is precious. Thank you for sharing such wise words.
