The Power of Love

The Golden Age Senior Center Writer's Group recently expressed these thoughts about love for Valentine's Day:

Happy Valentines Day! Love is caring enough for another to allow them to be who they are; to allow that person freedom, space and time to be alone with others. - Pam Dengler

Love is all there is. That is unless you are indifferent. When we say we are in love, love is vague unrest about the object of our intention. Love makes the world go round. Hate stops the merry-go-round. - Bob Oliver

Love - the most powerful word known to man. Love makes the world go 'round. Without love, there would be no civilization. - Irene Hooper

Love is tolerating a pair of cold feet on a cold winter night. - Vernon Hoyle

Love is eternal. Don't let it stop with you. Pass it on. - Sandy Serjak

Love is one side of a two-edged sword. Hate is the other, and both cut deeply. - Wilford Corbin

Love is a gaggle of grandkids. Love is being willing to say I'm sorry. Love is baking a cake or making a special meal just for you. - Shirley Pressley

Love is a many splendored thing! It makes the world go round. Love lifted me. Love will roll the clouds away. Love is wonderful! Love is scrooching up to Shirley. - Joe Pressley

Love is a helping hand to the poor; feet that run to the needy; legs that stand on truth; loins that are fruit-bearing; a breast that suckles; shoulders that bear burdens; ears that will not listen to slander; eyes that will not look at filth; a turned cheek; lips that kiss both the lovely and the unlovely; a head that thinks no evil; and a heart that covers sin. It is man made in God's own image. - Michele Sperber
