Love Never Changes

Today's Note

Time changes things. Children get older.  Flowers bloom.  The night becomes day. The days add up to bring about a new year.  Trees grow leaves and deep roots.  Technology introduces new ways to share and get things done faster and more efficient.  Fashions change.  People come and go in our lives.  Storms pass.  Life happens. 

Of all the change that takes place around us, there is one thing that remains the same - Love.  Love never changes.  Love causes change.  Love is realized.  Love teaches us to love more.  But, love never changes.  It is always there to be embraced, shared and used for the good of others.  One may not know it.  One may not realize it.  One may choose to ignore it.  Regardless, love is always there.  Love is the same.  However, everyone needs a different part of it.  Everyone is at a different place with love.  Everyone is learning to grow in love. Everyone is on their own personal journey to love.  Everyone sees love differently.  Everyone needs love differently.  Love is the same love today as it was yesterday and the day before that. We change how we love, but love never changes.  Love always. Love daily. 365 Love. TM

Have you told someone you loved them today?  I have. TM


Note the Quote
"It [love] always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails..." - 1 Corinthians 13:7-8

My First Bike

Love Yesterday,
"Love you and the joy you bring to yourself, by taking "you" out tonight." --- Torion Kent

 Today,
I purchased my first bike this year.  Well, it's not really my first bike.  It's the first bike that I personally purchased myself.  I have not been on a bike since middle school. That was over thirty five years ago.  I almost forgot how much fun it was.  My husband and I love to do different things, so bike riding is one of our latest.  We started our "new" bike riding adventure riding around the neighborhood.  I honestly didn't remember it taking so much effort.  But, I guess that comes from a difference in time (smile).  It was hard work, but fun.  As I was riding my first bike, I began to think about the love and blessings that came from it.  I was able to ride after all of these years.  I was with a husband and friend who enjoyed doing things with me.  I was able to make it from point A to point B.  I was able to enjoy the outdoors.  I was able.

My husband and I get out at least once a week so that I can enjoy a ride on my first bike.  My distance and stamina improve each time.  It allows me the opportunity to do something for me. Something fun is healthy.  Something healthy is good for the body.  Something good for the body can be relaxing.  Something relaxing is good for me personally.  Something good for me personally is good for the love I have for me. The love I have for me is love that can be, will be and is shared with others. Love always. Love daily. 365 Love. TM

Have you told someone you loved them today?  I have. TM

...and Future Tomorrows,
Reflect on the experience of my first bike and how you can find love in having a similar experience doing something new and/or different. 

Love yesterday, today and future tomorrows. TM  ----Torion Kent

Take "You" Out

Love Yesterday,
"Life has a way of directing you on a unique path that brings you closer to love...today, tomorrow and the day after that." --- Torion Kent

Today,
Sometimes it's good to do something special just for you.  No one can please you better than you.  No one knows you like you do.  No one can make you happy better than you.  So, why not take "you" out tonight?  Put on a nice outfit.  Do something different with your hair.  Be adventurous .  Be creative.  Do something you've never done before.  Or, just do what you like to do best.  When you take "you" out, the sky is the limit.  Anything is possible. Life has a way of sometimes distracting us from things that are important. This includes things as simple as taking the time out for you.  Enjoy the pleasure of doing something just for "you." Enjoy a personal date with "you."  Be thankful for the blessing of being able to do things for "you."  Love you and the joy you will bring to yourself, by taking "you" out tonight.  Love always. Love daily. 365 Love. TM

Have you told someone you loved them today?  I have. TM

 ...and Future Tomorrows,
Reflect on the excitement of knowing what you can do and will do when you take "you" out tonight. 

Love yesterday, today and future tomorrows. TM  ----Torion Kent

Life Has a Way

Love Yesterday,
"God gave everyone a special gift.  He gave the gift of love.  We are fortunate to receive such a gift. He gave love because He created us for that purpose." --- Torion

Today,
Life has a way revealing wonderful things. The more you experience life, the more those life experiences change, evolve, challenge and transform you. Life and its experiences have a way of bringing out things you never envisioned. Life....

I never thought about becoming an author before 2011. It was never a dream of mine. Writing was not a hobby or a passion. I wrote in diaries as a child, but stopped in my young adult years. I wrote songs periodically.  I wrote poems less often than that. Little did I realize, those times of writing poems and songs, listening to music and poetry, and experiencing life, I was being prepared for something greater. I was being drawn closer and closer to love. Life taught me to love.  Love inspired me to share love with others. In 2011, out of the blue, I started writing my first book.  I wrote though its completion and publication in 2012. Life and love were the catalyst for making that happen. I eventually developed a passion for writing and sharing... Love. Life has a way of doing things like that. Love has a way of doing things like that.

You go through periods in your life wondering why, when, where and how. But, life has a way of eventually providing the answers.  It reveals purpose and meaning. Life has a way of drawing you closer to love...today, tomorrow and the day after that. Love always. Love daily. 365 Love. TM

 Have you told someone you loved them today?  I have. TM

...and Future Tomorrows,
Reflect on how life has a way of helping you to grow into a better you.  Think about how a better you is good when someone  takes you out.

 Love yesterday, today and future tomorrows. TM  ----Torion
