The greatest gift that you can give to
someone this Valentine’s day is your presence. Many people over
estimate being fully present with the people they care about. They
think that simply showing up is enough but the gift that is more
precious then gold and diamonds is the gift of your full presence.
People know when you are being fully
present. There is a genuine feel to it. When I went to serve food at
the shelter I noticed that the people who served for years seemed to
be the most present with the people who came through the doors for
help. You can just feel it. You can tell that the servers where their
to serve not to be served.
This Valentine’s day be fully present
with the people you love. If you are single and feel like love is in
short supply go to the shelter and serve others until you are full of
love. Remember love don't start from outside of yourself. It starts
from inside and radiates outwardly. When you show love being fully
present with the people you serve without expecting anything in
return then you will find yourself surrounded by nothing but love and
gratitude....
I know what love is. Love it putting
someone else's needs before your own. - Olaf
Happy Valentine’s Week ^_^
