Yesterday, while I\u2019m at work
he picks up a lovely large antique mirror that I\u2019d been eyeing
brings it home, hangs it on the wall
never mentions
I come in tired, talk to the dog
go up to change my clothes
when I come down, I see myself
in the mirror
instantly I recognize the light of love and delight
in a smile
my own<\/p>\n\n\n\n
if I were to tell you,
that tomorrow is the day to tell someone you love them
or no\u2026 maybe it\u2019s
today, or yesterday
would you then try hard to remember
while being bombarded by the constant chatter
so as not to forget
that this was the day to
remember
most
cause its some sort of holiday or
something
or who it was you were supposed to love
and just who
would love you<\/p>\n\n\n\n
or possibly if I could tell you exactly how long you
would have someone special
in your life
and precisely the minute
they
would be gone<\/p>\n\n\n\n
would you think to yourself, ah yes
this was the day they said
for I love you\u2019s, and not to miss my chance
thanks for the reminder
if only I\u2019d thought
of it
sooner<\/p>\n\n\n\n
if we open ourselves up to love
if we
put love out in to the world
in simple actions, in kind thoughts, in
words
if we recognize how precious
our time
our friends, our
loved ones
their time
if we make it a practice to give the love
we hope to receive
every day
we always lose less
when we can
love more <\/p>\n\n\n\n
now is the time to say I love you
this day is just as good as any
and if you\u2019re reading this
let me send my love to you
to surround you, to keep you, to light your way
stay open,
as this right now
is the perfect time, day, year, minute
for love
to
find
you
and to remind you
it\u2019s been right here,
all along \u2665<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
