Love, Lubricant Of The Soul, Emollient Of The Heart



Love is the lubricant of the soul and the emollient of the heart, both  
Unguent and viscous, it glides like butter in the summer heat 
Banish it from your life and suddenly everything will dry up, like a    
Rose wilting by winter's call.  Lubricate love with a sense of purpose    
Invite joy to sit at your table and oil your dreams with hope.    
Care for your inner self and nurture your mind and body....
A lubricant made of peace and forgiveness can reduce friction  
Nature has a way of polishing and moisturizing the mind and    
Truth be told, gratitude can be the greatest lubricant of them all.

What a beautiful piece. I'm surprised this didn't have more comments because it's just great! I must admit though, lubricant does make me think naughty thoughts. ;) LOVE the line about reducing fiction. Brilliant!
