There are a lot of things that it doesn't take too long to get enough of. If anyone enjoys any of the things I am about to mention, I apologize, but there are things I get enough of. It doesn't take long for me to get enough of people playing their music so loud in their car. If I wanted to listen to the station you are listening to, I would change my own radio. It doesn't take me long to get enough of someone driving ten miles below the speed limit in the passing lane. The passing lane is for passing, either pass or get over. It doesn't take long for me to get enough of someone putting someone else down. If you want to talk about someone, why not go to that person and talk TO them and not ABOUT them?
There are other things that I never seem to get enough of. Hearing Trish call my name or just spending time with her - there will NEVER be enough. Hearing our little one laughing - there will NEVER be enough of that. Seeing him run around the house and run around exploring outside and having a great time - there will NEVER be enough. Time with loved ones will NEVER be enough.
Today's word is a quote from Henry Miller that says, "The one thing we can NEVER get enough of is LOVE. And, the one thing we NEVER give enough of is - LOVE."
I can never get enough love. There are folks in this world who do not like me. I am sure there are folks in this world who do not love me. If all but one person in the world loved me, however, I would still want that one other person to love me. We all want to be loved.
It is just as important, if not more, to love others. We will never be able to give enough love. I love everyone. Everyone. I may not like what they do but I LOVE them. Just as we will never get enough love, though, we never seem to give enough; we always seem to want to reserve our love to protect ourselves. DON'T BE AFRAID TO LOVE!
Yes, we need love and we need to give love. I may not like the loud music, the slow drivers, the putting others down, but I love the ones doing it. Don't you?
Be Blessed,
Mickey T
