Simply Be Love.

On this day, and always, I choose to live my life by the principle of “love first”.

Combined with learning to define myself by who I am in the world, versus what I do, I now know that there is nothing more powerful than to simply be love.

Reflecting on the energy of love this Valentine’s Day, I wrote:

For here,
For now,
For always,

Show love,
And give love.

Let love bind.
Let love shine.
Let love cure.
And let love endure.

Let love show.
Let love grow.
Let love forgive.
And let love live.

For today,
For tomorrow,
For eternity,

First love,
And last love.

Forever,
Simply,

Be love.

~Nanette
