By Love

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

.

“Our love grows soft

if it is not strengthened

by truth,

and our truth grows hard

if it is not softened

by love.”

.

— John Stott

.

Simple;

love the truth and truly love.

Sometimes the truth can be hard to swallow

but a spoonful of love will help the medicine go down.

Do not let your love grow soft,

remember love is not just words, love is an action

that is motivated by a truthful heart.

Today, not too hard, not too soft,

love the truth and truly love,  unconditionally.

Love softens the true world.

Love is helping someone love themselves.

Don’t Exaggerate

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

.

“We exaggerate

misfortune and happiness

alike.

We are never

as bad off or as happy as

we say we are.”

.

~ Honore De Balzac

.

.

Why exaggerate ? ? ?

Why not just be content with the middle of the road.

No one ever believes your laments of melancholy misery

or your over emoted spasms of ecstatic exuberance

anyhow.

Yes, we do those things to elicit sympathy or

to have other people leave us alone.

Today, be happy, don’t exaggerate,

tell the truth about how you feel.

Happiness is never having to exaggerate.

Happiness is helping someone help themselves.
