What is the most difficult thing about love?

Posted on Dec 12th, 2008 by JoAnna
This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for December 12, 2008:

The most difficult thing about love is loving despite the pain.  When your heart is hurt or betrayed it is tempting to close your heart off.  It could be a friend, family member, or a loved one.  One just has to remember that love is an amazing feeling and can change the world.  Every time you are hurt, you are growing as a person.  The best way to grow is to love.  We learn the best lessons when things aren't going out way.  We become stronger, and our love becomes stronger each time we expirience it.

Weight off my shoulders....

Posted on Dec 11th, 2008 by JoAnna
Whew!  I just had the biggest final I have ever taken in my life.  I absolutely loved the class but the work load was insane.  I took a block class for English 101 and World Religions.  I encourage anyone in school to take a World Religion course.  It was amazing!  But that final consumed my every thought for a week.  Though I left feeling rather like I nailed it!!!!!!!!!  Now I have one more final and I'm on break for a month. 

With my month off I plan on volunteering at our local food bank and soup kitchen.

My sisters, but in different ways.  I am the middle of three and can see myself in both of them and I love it!

Opening my heart...

Posted on Dec 10th, 2008 by JoAnna
I have always had a large heart.  I have loved creatures that most would toss aside on sight.  As a teen this inate ability to love got me shunned from my group of friends, and rather than move on, I shut down.  The only way to drown the love was to consume massive, no really, massive quantities of alcohol.  I drowned for several years.  After spiraling down to places I don't recommend to even the darkest people; I awoke to see that love is the best high in the world.  I can love with a fierceness few know.  I love intensely and freely my fellow man; from the bottom of my heart.  I can and will smile true upon sight and do everything in my power to make you see that love is the only way to survive this world.
