To kick off a week of love I started to think about the things that love is or can be to a person. It’s something that doesn’t take a lot of time to do or even to realize, but to sit down and consciously focus on what love is to you, can sometimes be a lot more eye opening than you ever thought. I found it was the smallest things that ended up filling me with the most love and bringing the biggest smile to my face.
