Subject: What is love?

When someone loves you, the way they say your name is different. You
just know that your name is safe in their mouth." Billy - age 4



"Love is when you go out to eat and give somebody most of your French
fries without making them give you any of theirs." Chrissy -age 6



"Love is what makes you smile when you're tired." Terri - age 4



"Love is when my mommy makes coffee for my daddy and she takes a sip
before giving it to him, to make sure the taste is OK." Danny - age 7



"Love is when you kiss all the time. Then when you get tired of
kissing, you still want to be together and you talk more. My Mommy and
Daddy are like that. They look gross when they kiss" Emily - age 8



"If you want to learn to love better, you should start with a friend
who you hate," Nikka - age 6 (we need a few million more Nikka's on
this planet)



"Love is when you tell a guy you like his shirt, then he wears it
everyday." Noelle - age 7



"Love is like a little old woman and a little old man who are still
friends even after they know each other so well." Tommy - age 6



"During my piano recital, I was on a stage and I was scared. I looked
at all the people watching me and saw my daddy waving and smiling. He
was the only one doing that. I wasn't scared anymore." Cindy - age 8



"Love is when your puppy licks your face even after you left him alone
all day." Mary Ann - age 4



"You really shouldn't say 'I love you' unless you mean it. But if you
mean it, you should say it a lot. People forget." Jessica - age 8



And the final one -- Author and lecturer Leo Buscaglia once talked
about a contest he was asked to judge. The purpose of the contest was
to find the most caring child.

The winner was a four year old child whose next door neighbor was an
elderly gentleman who had recently lost his wife. Upon seeing the man
cry, the little boy went into the old gentleman's yard, climbed onto
his lap, and just sat there. When his Mother asked what he had said to
the neighbor, the little boy said, "Nothing, I just helped him cry"


When there is nothing left but God, that is when you find out that God
is all you need. Take 60 seconds and give this a shot! All you do is
simply say the following small prayer. Father, God bless all my
friends in whatever it is that You know they may be needing this day!
And may their life be full of your peace, prosperity and power as
he/she seeks to have a closer relationship with you. Amen.
