All I Really Really Want…. I Have

 

A love like this

 

And then there is love.

Holding you.

That is how I feel when Chelsea and Sacha are home.

There is love.

Strong. Simple. Pure. Good.

And more than that,

if it is possible to have more than that, 

It is mine, or I should say ours.

Love is here heaping full for my heart to have.

If heaven isn't this, this moment, this love, this over abundant reality of goodness,

than it isn't what I am hoping for.

 

 

Blooming love

 

I don't know if I did anything to deserve this.

Nothing more than the person next door, or the person millions of miles away.

But I do know that I wish it on everyone, to have family love, the kind that I feel that roots the source of who I am into the source of what is good, pure, simple, and strong.

A love that is free to be who you are without fear. A love that you put in your pocket, like a bunch of seeds, and it blooms as if you are the source of sun and water.

 

Love wish come ture

 

All I really really want I have.

 

   Do you know how that encourages a person to live?  

I hope you have such joy in loving and being loved too.

Thankful. Very thankful I am.

    I totally get what you are saying. Humbled that you have so much… but just maybe, you give out a lot too!

    Realizing what you have, how lucky you are, is the best gift. How many of us have this and don’t appreciate how blessed we are? Thanks for the reminder.

  13. Love your post! Reminds me of the song my kids used to sing..”love is something if you give it away you keep on having more. It’s just like a magic penny. Hold it tight and you won’t have any. Lend it spend it and give it away and you just keep having more.”

  14. Your ability to speak to us in your heartfelt way each day is truly a gift…of yours….to us. Thank you, Corey.

    Beautiful! How I would wish that for everyone too. You can see it in your faces.

  21. AMEN to that….
    There has never been a day when I have not been proud of you, I said, though some days I’m louder about other stuff so it’s easy to miss that.

    I second every word. And I fully believe also that what goes out comes back…

  23. Same as you, I’m feeling very fortunate and blessed, to had and have so much love in my life, in many colors, shapes and ways.

  24. Yes. I can’t say it more simply than that and I know how fortunate I am to be able to read and identify with what you have written.

  25. Such a beautiful family. You are blessed, and you know it.
