LOVE DOES

 
 

I started reading the book, Love Does, after my dear friend at 10,000 Reasons suggested I needed a break from research articles.  After a quick download (or is it upload?) to my Kindle, I grabbed a cup of hot green tea and settled on the couch under my favorite blue blanket.  I set my phone to silent, not wanting to be disturbed, and began reading. What I didn't finish in the home, I finished on my flight home.  (Yes, that was me dabbing away tears during the final chapter).  A delightful story of one man and his love for all things whimsy, it is sure to warm your heart.  If nothing else, it'll have you thinking about what LOVE DOES in your life. 


Here's a glimpse into mine...



Most people wouldn't drive four hours through tornado warnings to attend a wedding in which they only know the bride... who they haven't seen in years.   But, LOVE DOES. 

 
 
Raising $2,300 could intimidate anyone.  But, LOVE DOES...
and brings along a friend to help raise over $4,600.  And because love is bold, it'll walk 60-miles in three days. 
 
 
 Needing shelter from a sweltering New York summer day may seem impossible.  But LOVE DOES offer a place of rest for all who seek it. 
 
 
 
Work never takes a break.  But, LOVE DOES and takes you on a grand trip because "work can wait".
 
 
  We often wonder what moves kids.  LOVE DOES.  And then they send postcards and painted tiles to NYC after 9/11 to show their own love.  
 
 
 
Life is an adventure.  You may not always understand the change of tides, the storms that linger, or the waves that crash on you.  But, LOVE DOES.  And it will be there, waiting.
