Today’s Thought: Love is All

Life has loveliness to sell, All beautiful and splendid things, Blue waves whitened on a cliff, Soaring fire that sways and sings, And children’s faces looking up, Holding wonder like a cup. Life has loveliness to sell, Music like a curve of gold, Scent of pine trees in the rain, Eyes that love you, arms that hold, And for your spirit’s still delight, Holy thoughts that star the night. Spend all you have for loveliness, Buy it and never count the cost; For one white singing hour of peace Count many a year of strife well lost, And for a breath of ecstasy Give all you have been, or could be. ~ Sara Teasdale

NOTE: Love is all. We get tangled in foolishness. We have disagreements with a lover or friend. We worry over things we won’t remember later in the day. We chase goals that lose their glitter once we reach them. Transient things tangle us up and turn us inside out. All the while, love surrounds us. All we have to do is slow down and look with our heart and love grabs hold of us. Love is all.
