Hello Reader,
How can we choose love when we have experienced so little of it? I read that question from Henri Nouwen a few minutes agoβand it landed deeply. Especially now!
What I found so redemptive in his words was the gentle invitation he offered:
β
βTake small steps in the direction of love.
A kind word.
A warm smile.
A thoughtful gesture.
A check-in text.
A genuine "How are youβreally?"
I might not change the world, but I can brighten it for somebody!
ππππ π¨π©ππ₯ ππ¨ π‘ππ π π πππ£ππ‘π ππͺπ§π£ππ£π ππ£ π©ππ π£ππππ©. ππ© ππ€ππ¨π£βπ© ππ‘ππ’ππ£ππ©π π©ππ πππ§π π£ππ¨π¨, ππͺπ© ππ© ππ€ππ¨ ππͺπππ πͺπ¨ π©ππ§π€πͺππ ππ©.
So, hereβs the invitationβfor me and maybe for you, too:
π Choose love today. Not because itβs easy or flashy.
Not because it changes everything instantly.
But because it changes somethingβin us, and maybe in someone else.
Let your small step shine.
Until Next Week
Whatβs one small act of love you can choose todayβto guide yourself or someone else through the darkness?
Rinse and repeat daily!β
β
With gratitude, hope, and LOVE,
