Love Is All You Need

LOVE IS ALL YOU NEED Learn to love yourself first with your strengths, gifts, talents and your weaknesses, flaws, shortcomings for you are left with yourself most of the time. Only then you are able to fully open your heart, give love to others. Love is a gift. A gift so precious that you must nurture it. Look after and water it to grow for love is the answer to what you need. Love is all you need! Submitted: 2/28/21 All Yours (March) Brian Strand

WoW! Marilene, I enjoyed the positive and encouraging message within this write. I agree, when one falls in love with themself, they can love someone else. I was just telling my daughter the other day, “ you are with yourself most of the time,” even in a room with many people. Excellent write. PS, thanks for the great comments left on my poem. I'm on my way, have the clam chowder ready. I think I shall fav this:-) Alexis

Hello Marlene Evans, a song and I am not sure of the title. I think Pink Floyd sings the son. Or it could be nick Jagger. The words are-Just Think of Tomorrow Just Think of Today Yesterday Gone.

Hello there, Darlene. You're the second Darlene I met in three weeks time. I met a Darlene three weeks ago. "Nice to meet you" or "please to meet you" is from Mick Jagger's song. Just cannot remember which song. Anyway, I like John Lennon's "Love is all you need". Happy Holidays and have a great evening.
