What do you love?

Happy Valentine's Day writers! 

"What do you love"? is a great life giving prompt any day, any time. Give yourself a love wash, a love bath inside and out as you write out the little details of the big things and the big details of the small things and see how size doesn't matter when it comes to love. It's the spirit of the love muscle pumping all that juicy gratitude through your body and out your pen that you'll come back to again and again, weeping through it with joy and nostalgia and who knows what else.

Or maybe today it's just one thing you love and you linger there and grow that love. Like: your aloe plant that keeps on making babies and healing your wounds and lifting your heart. The little aloe that could that you got downstairs at Hunt n Gather (or was it Ikea?) because way back when you needed houseplants. And what was once a teeny spec of green life, is now an aloe tree leaning into the daily light. It doesn't ask itself of it's worth or whether or not it should grow; it just does its thing, leaning into life, neck and neck with the geranium plant.

Lingering with the details of what you love on the page is an awesome way to grow that love outwardly and inwardly. oxoxo
