Love is the Honey

"Life is the flower for which love is the honey."
-Victor Hugo

Life really is not much without love. I hope your life is filled with love surrounding you. If it's not, you may want to cut those things which are not out of your life. Today is too precious to keep on living with those things that don't add sweetness, gentleness, and love to your life.

One thing that I think can physically represents this is the beauty of petals...







gentle





sweet





soft





beautiful



"Love is the answer, and you know that for sure; Love is a flower, you've got to let it grow."
-John Lennon

Good evening beautiful one!

Yes, LOVE IS LIFE, LIFE IS LOVE. ACCEPT NO substitutes! What would we do without the love of family and FRIENDS...thank YOU for being such a kind and wonderful friend my dear and the next time I go "back home" to California, we can meet. I had the pleasure of meeting three blog pals last summer and it was MAGIC. One of them I correspond with daily for she has that magic that I need to keep my head above the waters of work's realities. YOUR PHOTOS ARE STUNNING! I cannot wait to see your post on PARIS and thank you for participating. Your name is in the pot for a chance of my artwork.....have a lovely evening. Anita
