Love is Rare

Updated on March 22, 2012

This is a post I put out on my Facebook page on Valentine's Day to share with my friends before I started posting on Hub. As many of you enjoy my writing and are becoming friends I thought I would share with you as well.

Love is rare. Most of us go through our days interacting with people of all kinds, we meet and cross the paths of tens of thousands of people in our lives, yet we only love a few of them throughout our lives. We may have close friends and can like a lot of people, but love is special. The pecentage of people we love is low to the number of people we know. Appreciate the rarity today and enjoy the warmth of those who love you and if you love someone - let them know.

      Hi Rob, great words, especially that last line. I believe in that tatally and I never hang up the phone with my girlfriend or my kids without saying those three words. "I love you" is very important to me because never know what can happen after hanging up the phone or before the next time we talk. Always, aways say it. Greg

      I agree with you...it is hard to find true love and sometimes we let it slip away, without realizing that we found true love. I'd like to attach a wonderful song from John Denver which says it so perfectly:
