“It is better to love wisely,
no doubt:
but to love foolishly
is better
than not to be able
to love at all.”
.
~ William Makepeace Thackeray

.
To love wisely there are no secrets.
To love foolishly is to lie, cheat and steal.
Today, know that every opportunity to love
is a throw of the dice and may God grant you
enough lucky sevens to keep your heart
filled with love.
Love is just being able to love,
the outcome to be determined when the die stop rolling.
Love is helping someone love themselves.

“I learned that
courage was not
the absence of fear,
but the triumph
over it.”
.
~Nelson Mandela

.
Fear is useful, at times.
Fear keeps one from putting their hand on a hot stove,
keeps one from walking out into the street before looking,
and keeps one from putting all of their eggs into one basket.
However, many of our fears are false,
we make them up.
Real fears, false fears,
know the difference and act accordingly.
For all your fears, have faith, pray, ask a friend,
and when it is apparent that our fears are false,
let go and let God have them.
Life is having the courage to triumph over false fears.
Life is living and loving in the here and now.
