INTRODUCTION

Love

Love is an essence, an atmosphere, which defies analysis as does Life itself. It is that which IS and cannot be explained: it is common to all people, to all animal life, and evident in the response of plants to those who love them. Love reigns supreme over all.

John 13:34,35

Love yourself first, and everything else falls into line. You really have to love yourself to get anything done in this world.

Lucille Ball

In their lifetime, some people may experience all the aspects of love and others maybe only a few. It’s up to you, you see. As you read this book, open up your hearts, open your eyes and see where this love comes from and where it can go in your life. You’d be surprised what love can do for you. We are made from love. No matter what kind of life you’ve grown up in, or even if you haven’t experienced love
