Advent Week 4: all you need is love

How or when have you experienced love?

Accepted for who I am.

Challenged to be better than I am.

Encouraged, accountable, and forgiven when I am less than I can be.

It is my companion, family, friends, and colleagues that are invested in me enough to express a love that accepts, challenges, encourages, keeps me accountable, and forgives. It is tough love and a risk to accept it. And, it is a risk to invest that kind of attentive presence in others: colleagues, friends, family, my companion, and strangers. That’s my love offering. 

How are you offering Love?
