This is Love.....

The holidays have come and gone and left me in marvel of how precious love is.  It is the most incredible gift.  A little child sitting in my lap, looking up at me, smiling..... giving me a sweet kiss on the cheek with no words... this is love.   A little baby putting his hands in the air and smiling as if he owns the whole wide world........ this is love.  A young man somewhat lost and saddened at this time of the year because life threw him a few curve balls and he has to regroup yet he still wants to share in the Christmas story with his mom on Christmas Eve...this is love.  A young woman who gave up her whole life to have a son that lights up her world ........ this is love.  A mother and father who not only pray for their family but also for those they don't even know during their Christmas celebration.... this is love.  A man who lost himself in a world of material riches only to find the most precious things in life are not things ..... they are people....family.....this is love.  A man....A GOD.... who gave his only son so that we might experience all these things......this is love........

May we always remember the true meaning of the most precious gift ........ love......
