I'm just me

"REMEMBER YOU ARE LOVED"

Blog Posted by Tom Woody: 3/8/2025 9:58:00 AM
These words were said to me a few times this past week and thus I felt the need to spread the message. There are so many things that drag us down in life, affect our self-esteem or cause us to question our worth in the world. Always remember that you are loved by someone and probably many someones, so it's okay to let yourself rise above the fray and dwell peacefully in the clouds. My new contest addresses that theme. Here's hoping everyone has a great weekend! Tommy

If only Tom's words had wings and could take flight in the emptiness of lone hearts. Those hearts would once sing again. There be songs, sing a-longs, harmony. And for every lovely word of his that passes the doors of the heart the foundation of the body is in a better place.

Gone are the days when jelly and ice cream won hearts—now, the true test of grandparental love is measured in rich, creamy butter chicken. Who knew my legacy would be less about bedtime stories and more about perfecting the spice blend? But hey, if gourmet cooking is the new ticket to unconditional love, I’ll take it—one simmering pot at a time!

My mom loved me unconditionally, that's the only human that did and all my pets through out my life have also been there for me no matter what I did or said, like Keith, I get kisses all the time, and that unconditional love that is endless. I have had some down times lately bringing fear, confusion, and sadness, so I know that feeling, blessings ~

Couldn't agree more

Looking at what Keith wrote. I think only my dog Ollyver loved me unconditionally in my entire life. I wonder if it is even possible with humans. I think the parent/ child relationship comes closest

I agree. Even God doesn't love us unconditionally, as some suggest - John 3:36

I am loved unconditionally by Max and Elly. They both sleep with me so I get plenty of hugs and kisses and nibbles. Max is my mastiff and Elly is my American boxer. They think I’m wonderful and I know I am loved.

I live in a giant kennel, and I seem to do most of the fetching.

I can only assume the poor wifey has been banished to her own bedroom. On the other hand, is it by choice? Hmmmm

' You are appreciated and loved. ' Words of encouragement will always lift the heart. Reflecting on the positive keeps me floating in the clouds. ' You ' belong in the sky. :)
