My mother, as she was growing up and into early adulthood, suffered some very hard things…without ever becoming hard. When I asked her how she had done it, she thought for a moment, then said one of the dearest things: “Landon, you don’t have to win; you only have to love.”
Dear Soul,
I give love, but I don’t feel that I am loved enough in return.
Dear Life,
Approaching love with a shopkeeper’s mentality—I gave so much and got so much in return—is a sure way to go out of the love business. Love’s true nature is to give, expecting nothing in return.
Today, I’ll look through the eyes of love at all the people and circumstances of my day . . . and I’ll leave it to love to look after me.
