Love is the driving force of our being, the thing that gives life meaning.
Love is the motivation for us to stretch out of our comfort zone,
The reason to brave the unknown,
The courage to do the unbelievable.
It’s the gas, the compass, and the prize.
Love is the inspiration for us to change,
To give ourselves a second chance.
Love is when ego is displaced by curiosity.
Love is what builds us up when the world says no.
Love is why we support each other to grow into our best self.
Love is being,
Being our best self.
Love is me being me.
…
I spent much of 2022 pondering, searching, questioning what love is. Yesterday, these words came to me.
This is it.
This is what love is to me, now.
How about you? What is love to you?
