Love Expands.

Life has taken some serious turns lately, and I’ve been doing a lot of thinking.

Every once in a while, we get a wake-up call about what is most important in our lives. Sometimes, these wake up calls are pleasant like weddings; other times they are more somber and melancholy. I have been trying to get my focus back on the things that truly matter: family, friends, and faith. I realize that my work isn’t simply a way to make ends meet, but an opportunity to be a friend to those I might not encounter otherwise. I find that too often helping others isn’t convenient for me, so I don’t do it. But helping others is truly about sacrifice, and I need to be more willing to make some. And often.

Regardless of what you believe about why we were put here on earth, I think we can all agree that when we put others first, something in our spirit feels at home.

Have a wonderful weekend….
