Love
Without love…there really is” no” love is there? It is that we are not looking or
looking in the wrong places.
Without love…we do not open the box, because we believe that what is inside
will hurt us yet again or frighten us.
Without love…the landscape is dry and cracked, the sky is dark and we forget that
the sun is always there, high in the sky, shining.
Without love…smiles fade and eyes are dulled, spirit is not recognized. Everything needs
recognition to be seen, to be known.
With love…we look into the eyes of another, extend a hand, recognize a heart…we are all
waiting for the other to start.
With love…we see what has always been there, more love coming back.

A man named Kristopher wrote,
“A person may be a funny person, but unless they are expressing humour
they are not being funny. A song is only beautiful when it is sung or played
(expressed). Without expression its beauty cannot be heard.
A woman or man may be intelligent, but they are only being intelligent
when they are expressing intelligence.
If you want more spiritual connection, you must express spirituality in your
daily Life.”
To this I would add,” If you want love in your life, you must walk a loving
path; you must express love”. klaas+.
