A gift called Love

[JJSouth]

Hello GA people. I've just joined and thought I'd post a piece I wrote last year. It is included in my book, '33' which is described on my site, http://www.33agaylovestory.com I hope these few words may brighten someone's day.

 

The greatest gift on earth is love.

 

For love brings peace, happiness, contentment and harmony to one's soul.

 

Nothing matches the nobility of love, or the feelings of loving and being loved.

 

For love soothes the mind and heart,

 

It brings joy, well-being, wholeheartedness and wholesomeness to a person.

 

Love is a panacea to the spirit...to the lonely, to the neglected and dejected, to the out-of-sorts, to those seeking direction.

 

Love releases stresses and tensions; it mollifies hardships, provides comfort and safe sanctuary.

 

Love induces friendships, bonds, admiration and courage.

 

It smoothes unsettled waters and pacifies frayed minds and agitated tempers.

 

Love is the conqueror of adversity, it provides strength to confront and challenge.

 

Love in all its forms, is enduring and is the essence of living.

 

For love is life.
