Oh Kathryn, I am always loving your posts and always amazed how we are on the same wavelength with our contemplations. Since yesterday was the International Day of Happiness I was polling coworkers and loved ones with the question, "What is one small thing that brings you happiness?" That reminds me of your question, "What is something you love?" It can be the small things like sitting in the sun on your lunch, basking like a turtle. Seeing my husband's Ian smile. I think those small things that bring happiness are also the small things I love. Thanks for sharing your creativity and curiosity- I think the more we are tuning into those the more connected we become with each other and the planet.
Thank you, Kathryn, for this topic! It is so helpful for me right now as a teacher of teens. I'm glad you wrote about courage, because, that is what I need! When I share what I love with my students (and fellow teachers) and it goes un-noticed and un-appreciated, it feels crushing. And I get defensive! /// I have a lesson in which I ask my students to illustrate their favorite song. It is amazing. They create beautiful, intense artwork that fills the page. It is like "un-corking" a bottle of love!
