Love is not just about a significant other. It can come in many different forms and be about many different things in and toward life.
It can be toward yourself, your partner, family, and friends. Or to the strangers whose shoes we’ve never walked in and whose story that we don’t know about.
In choosing to love the many different aspects of life, it helps us open up our mind and heart to a more accepting reality.
“Beauty is in the eye of the beholder,” as a wise woman Margaret Wolfe Hungerford once wrote.
The world will be as we see and perceive it. Of course, that does not mean ignoring all the flaws and chaos in the world, but that different people will view this same world in two different ways.
Similarly, no two person will see one person the same, and I believe that is lovely.
But there is more to love than just love between two persons, it is the love of life and the world around, and that is what I want to share as well.
So below are just a couple of quotes of love that I believe encompasses what love is between people, self, and the world.
