LET'S START AT THE VERY BEGINNING...

LOVE
This blog is an exploration of Love!
For the next 365 days, just like the recent movie Julie & Julia, I will blog about Love.
Love in all its various forms, expressions and interpretations.
There will be a daily quote and a note from me.
Sometimes I will comment on the quote.
Other days I might just use it as a daily diary.
Think of this blog as a calendar page with different features.
As my understanding of love unfolds and grows so will this blog.

WEEKLY FEATURES
Each week on Thursday's my personal picks on films/theatre/TV programs featuring love stories. Twice a week the "art of love" feature will change.
These images of "love" could be a photograph, painting or graphic image.
And once a week I will post the lyrics to a song that is about love or has love in the title.
And I'll post a clip of songs when possible.
I hope that these things will stir your memory and we can share with each other our stories about love.

WHAT IS LOVE?
It is more than just a song that underscored A NIGHT AT ROXBURY with Chris Kattan and Will Ferrell. This question is something that I have struggled to understand for years.

I guess like a number of people who find themselves single again, I equate LOVE with having a partner in my life. In other words, "romantic" love.
Actually in my case I've lived more in "lust" than in love.
(I promise to keep this blog as PG-13 as possible.)

MISSION STATEMENT
To boldly go on a journey into uncharted territory in my heart.
To understand all the different "aspects" of love that are all around me.
To impart this information to the best of my ability.
To be as loving as I possibly can.

WHY DO THIS?
This whole blog's purpose is for us together to begin to experience more LOVE in our lives.
For so many years I didn't. Not that love wasn't all around me. I've been blessed to be surrounded in love all my life. But for some reason I have been unable or unwilling to stop and pause and let love in.

That is until now.

So come and join me on this my year long quest one day at a time.
Join me on this journey in love.

Peace and blessings,
Gerry M.
