Lord, grant that I may not so much seek to be loved as to love.

Saint Francis of Assisi had some of the worlds best thoughts….peter:)
Is that a bit like the Black Sheep??
St Francis had a way with the world, lessons for us I think
A beautiful thought for the week CherryPie ,, hope you are well.
Thanks Anne, and thanks for the Re-tweet
I am well, I hope you are too?
Especially loving nature all around us.
Yes, a good place to start
You have no idea how this speaks to me today after Mother’s Day yesterday, Cherry. I was feeling sorry for myself that my two children hadn’t reached out to me on such a special day. Later they did…but I was ashamed that I hadn’t reached out to them first, telling them how proud I was that they were my children! (sigh)
At times we all have our weak moments. Your day worked out in the end
To mothers everywhere: may you get beautiful flowers too.
To those who have not been blessed, remember Elizabeth, who was blessed at the same time as Mary and despite having given up all expectation.
A lovely thought and tribute, thank you
Those tulips are incredible with the light shining through…and you chose a lovely quote as well.
Thank you
The foremost petal looks like a heart to me.
Incredible light on those tulips. In your backyard? I love the quote. Love others and you will be loved (if not, that tells more about the other than about you)
The photo was taken in one of the Shropshire gardens that I enjoy
There’s always a black “sheep” in the family!
Always?
