Journey of Hearts 

"Love has survived from the beginning of time.
It has been defined and misinterpreted.
But long ago we discovered love is essential to life.
We discovered that love is life itself.
And anything we can do to further its understanding and acceptance
will benefit us all."

Although the southwestern US is known for its wonderful sunsets, mother nature did not cooperate for me: My chosen site was caught in a downpour accompanied by dances of lightning.
I was not at all worried about the cloudy or rainy sunsets, sometimes they can be quite magnificent too, just not in a colorful way.  I don't think that Leo would have been disappointed with the tribute-in-a-downpour.
He always struck me as a "who are you trying to impress?" type. A Person who given the choice between a million dollars and a hug would take the hug.

Oh for the rest of the world to be that way too...how rich we would all be...imagine a planet that converted to the "hug standard" instead of the "gold standard"!!

I listened to Leo tapes up and back (200 miles each way) and made notes for an upcoming writing that will be something like an "All I Ever Needed To Know I Learned In Kindergarten" poster.
 

Lighting a candle in my car, I made these pledges:

To strive to do loving things first each day--before getting caught up in the mundane.

To show love to someone else at least once, on a daily basis.

To do something charitable at least once a week.

To keep doing what I can to promote a lifestyle of love and living it by example.

To make sure I take the time to love myself as well.

To strive to keep a positive attitude.

To slow down and simplify, simplify, simplify!!!

To bond with others on The World of  Dr. Leo Buscaglia, on  Simply Love, and anywhere I can, for mutual help, support & encouragement at staying the path of love.
 

To remember to take time for sunsets.

These pledges are shared as a reminder to:
