Love….  LOve….. LOVE. Being the Holiday season I wanted to write a blog about LOVE. I LOVE, LOVE!!!  I’m not talking about the kind that people try to buy, or sell, or the kind that is used to deceive.  Those things AREN’T love….. but I’m amazed at how many people have gotten confused along the road of life, and think love plays a part in all of that.

I’m talking about the kind of LOVE that is beautiful and pure.  The kind of love that would never let a child suffer, a man or woman die sad or alone.  The kind that would never allow POWER to be more important than PURPOSE.  The kind that everyone knows would never hurt another being, no matter what!!!  Most importantly, the kind that gives us the strength to forgive ourselves, and others for the acts committed in moments, when truth is lost.  Finally, the kind that gives, but wants nothing in return!!!

When I was a little girl, I found it fascinating that old people often looked so sad, or mad. I was blown away by what would happen if I just shot them a smile.  I would imagine sending them a box of love as I smiled, and LO and BEHOLD, these OLD elders would light up like a christmas tree!  I was around 4 years old visiting my great grandma in the nursing home, when I decided I would spend my life sending that secret box of love through my smile.

Many times over the last 4 years, people have questioned my love of LOVE.  I always sign my name Love, Lex.  Several people have told me to change my signature, because they believe some will think I’m coming from a different place than I am.  It makes me sad that when you come from a place of peace,hope, and love, it can be twisted into all kinds of untrue things.  I know who I am, and where I’m coming from!  I know it is a whole lot better to Love with an open heart, than to live in fear of others misconceptions!

I am wishing you a wonderful Holiday season, full of beautiful and honest love, that is bountiful and hurts know one, but EMPOWERS all!  Peace and Hope to you, everyday of your life!

Me when I was little!

LOVE,

Webster’s defines love in 8b as…….”The feeling of benevolence, kindness, or brotherhood towards others”.  Wouldn’t it be something if the world could embrace that! Thanks for visiting!
