How can we show Love in a BIG world?

There is too much noise, too much hype. TV, music, magazines vie for my attention, trying to make me believe that being happy is all that matters. I need to get quiet so I can hear what my heart is telling me. Then I need to listen... to walk in step with each beat. I must laugh when I need to laugh and cry when I need to cry. No more games. I want to know myself and let others, especially my children, know me. That only comes with time - slowing down - being honest about the joy and the pain. Being real.

Quick Tip:
Journal. Write down your thoughts and feelings. Don’t edit. Just let it flow.

Definition:
Love In A Big World is being changed by love; making a positive difference by choosing to love.
