21 Days of Gratitude for Love: Day 6 (10/11/15)

Today I got some love and hugs from 2 fabulous artists. Each day I am amazed at the things I can attract into my life. When you look for the wonderful bliss of pure love, it appears - not just that of the romantic nature (that's not what I'm talking about here.) The kind where someone looks in your eyes and loves your soul, loves your smile, loves you through the sadness, hugs your heart, just loves you - for you! May your life be filled with the love of family, friends, and/or romance. Long live love!

Euphoria

There are no 

words for this. 

Look into my 

eyes, smile and 

feel my soul.

21 Days of Gratitude for Love: Day 4 (10/9/15)

Today I am celebrating the freedom of pulling off one's suit of armor and fully loving another with everything in you. Yes, there are risks and yes, it opens you up to vulnerability, but there is nothing like it. Today I want to remember that wonderful release of armor and that experience of love. May you attract love into your life. May your life be filled with love and not the weight of armor. Long live love!

Dare to Love

By: Annette Thomas

Dare to love?

To pull off

the suit of armor?

To expose yourself

and risk injury

to your very soul?

Dare to love?

To stand emotionally

naked before someone?

Stripped of your

heart’s protection, thus

revealing your vulnerability?

Dare to love?

To allow another

to examine and

question all that

you were, are

and may become?

Dare to love?

I ask.

Dare to love

Is to be FREE.

21 Days of Gratitude for Love: Day 5 (10/10/15)

Today I am celebrating the love, life and friendship of a dear and departed friend. Today I will be joined by many others in celebration of the tremendous life she lived and the love she brought to so many people. I want any and all who read this and have lost a loved one to know that I am here and remember you are loved to the core...Long live love!

Need Not Fear

By: Annette Thomas

        

Whatever life

Throws us

In these

Turbulent

Times you

Need not

Fear.

Awaiting you is

The comfort of

My arms and

An angelic silence

Wanting you to

Feel intimately

Connected.

Through these

Tough times I

Want you

To know

That I am

Here and you

Are loved.

21 Days of Gratitude for Love: Day 3

Today I celebrate the love of some very special people in my life. I want to offer them all the love I have on this day, as I am so grateful that they have been a part of my journey. They have loved me through so many of my life's ups and downs. A friend of mine lost her partner and the love of her life for 13 years. I am sending you a big fat virtual hug with lots of love. Then there's my 5 year old great niece who is on week 6 and still has 70 weeks more of chemotherapy with her family at St Jude's. I want them all to know that they are loved and that when I think of them I smile and my heart dances with love. I am so grateful for these wonderful souls in my life and pray for strength, comfort and healing for them and anyone else reading this. We all have our struggles. Although you may not know the person next to you, send them love. Spread that stuff around. We all need it. Long live love!

My Heart Dances

By: Annette Thomas

Because of you
I wear a smile on my face
I have joy in my soul
And my heart dances!
