We Need It More

LOVE

By Ruth Elizabeth StiffPublished 4 months ago 1 min read
PURE LOVE

“Life

is not about being rich,

being popular,

being highly educated

or being perfect.

It is about

being humble and

real and

kind.”

The true value of Life

is always seen

in a person’s qualities

rather than their possessions.

The ‘heart of existence’ beats better when

kindness,

compassion and

love are shown.

A listening ear

means more

than a thousand pounds,

even as a loving hug

means more than diamonds.

A true friend

means more

than a good bank account.

There is nothing wrong

with having money, jewels

or even being highly educated

‘when’

these possessions are used

to support,

help and

inspire each other.

As humans,

we need love

more than money.

Remember

that you are worth more

than any amount of money

because

you are special.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!
