Happy Valentine's Day!
Here's an excerpt from Love Lucy which I find to be of "heart wisdom"...
Of heartaches & unconditional love
LOVE LUCY By Lucy GomezThe Philippine STAR 02/13/2005
"Think about it – wouldn’t it be nice if we could all be like the children we once were and go back to the time when our hearts were simpler? When perhaps the biggest problem (if you could call it that) was maybe which toy to choose from among the many that line the happy shelves of a place like Toy Kingdom, when sweating the small stuff was unheard of? A time when love was purely given and taken, not analyzed and taken apart too much; a time, too, when forgiving came easier, when a sorry was always meant sincerely and accepted just as easily. A time when no hurts were ever stored, no grudges bred.
"Is that not how little children are? They do not have room in their hearts to store pain. Everyday is a new day for them, they embrace it with freedom from fear, always bare-naked. They give their all in the same way that they accept all that is given them. If they get hurt today, it simply is a fresh one that they deal with, never compounded on yesterday’s wounds. When sought for forgiveness they give it just as easily, and the memory of all prior pain is trashed in innocent oblivion. Erased, just like that."
