Spread the Love

   Although we may not be able to come up with the perfect definition to describe love, we are very much able to tell when we love someone or when someone shows us love. Love can be shown in the simplest of ways, like when you wake up in the morning and your mom has made your favorite breakfast for you or when you're sick and your family helps take care of all your needs. Those are only two of so many ways to show others that we love them. Sometimes, when we are on the receiving end of love, we don't have our eyes open enough to see those small acts of love. If we just opened our eyes and our hearts to find that love, we could see how much it impacts our lives.

   Love from my family and friends helps shape us into the people we become. Their love is what guides you along the path of life. If you feel unloved, you might make a wrong turn and end up in a bad place. If you feel loved and you know you are loved, you will make better choices and you will be happier than the person who doesn't feel loved. Love is what brings out the best in us, I know I'm always happiest when someone has shown me an act of love. This is why it is important to let people know that they're loved; even those small acts that you think would mean nothing might mean the world to someone else. We need to remember to share our kind words and actions with others; we need to spread the love.
