When your heart gives love, do you always love generously? Are you the person who plants the seeds of kindness and spreads random acts of and beautiful gestures that encourage the heart to be pliable and soften? With the widespread hate circling our globe, it is in our best interest to load up the scales to tip our way. I cannot think of a more powerful emotion than love, can you? It reaches farther into the soul than any other sentiment. Live out loud. Love out loud. The more you love, the more you will have to give – what a paradox.
When I think of love, it is usually followed by passion. Where is your passion? I honestly used to open up the tab that brought me to Steemit Hive with hope in my soul. A little bit of xcitement and a tad of expectation. This place is being abandonded quicker than a house with a three alarm fire. Is there a better paying gig out there? Are there nicer people? I named a whole bunch of people, but, then I thought that if I forgot even one, it would be terrible. Just know I look forward to all of you. Politics aside, I haven't found a better place. Then again, I'm not looking. I played a little with Voice, but, I missed the camraderi, the friendships I have forged and yes, even the little spammers that decorate my post. I lie! All you spammers, vamoose!You know who you are and you know you are not wanted.
Passion. Do you have the passion as you once did, once upon a time? To experience the passion, one must believe in its magic

So easy to lose sight of what really matters in life; is it not? There are days it can be a real challenge to keep it all in focus. Hocus-focus.
Not every picture is new, but, some days, it is fun to use them in a different way, hoping the results will be different, that perhaps it will say something different. I guess what I really want to say is some days I come on here and I love it and other days, it is a little less exciting, but, I still love it. Just like so many things in life, you won't miss it until it's gone.
There were flowers posted, to color our world. From me to you, electic and true. #alwaysaflower
All I have are my words, armed in my mind, written in pen, stand by stand. Oh, yes. Still by hand. It has a different feel. Altered not by keys, backspace, and delete, I write, erase, tear it to pieces and start all over again. And again.
It’s my way. I walk out to the deep end of the page and dive right in.

It isn’t just one of your holiday games;
You may think at first I’m as mad as a hatter
When I tell you, a cat must have THREE DIFFERENT NAMES.

Thank you! You are so sweet! They are my glasses from St. Patricks Day! :)) I hope you have a lovely day!
Love is always generous.
Absolutely. But, humans can sometimes be stingy with it. :)
I haven't got the energy to be bad, i couldn't live with myself if i hurt someones feelings. Putting a smile on someones face is so much nicer. :)
It really is nicer. It is so much easier to do. :)) I hope you get to feeling better and that would put a smile on my face!
It did and thank you :)
XOXO
😁🥰
What a lovely post and I try to love generously giving as much kindness as I can because that is our soul purpose being on earth. As usual your flower photos are gorgeous denise.🌈
Kindness is such an easy thing to give, and it is fostered by kindness in like. It would be difficult to give kindness with no feedback. Even a child will smile when kindness is showed.
Thank you, always. xoxo
Have a great day, Angie!
I love these pictures! Flower photography has been a passion. What a beautiful post. You are so right. Why would any gig pay more than such a lovely community who gives our so much love and flowers to it's people! This post lit me up. Thank you Denise.
Thank you so much. Flower photography is a huge passion with me! Thank you for stopping by and leaving your words.
Have you ever found yourself in an upright position with both arms perpendicular to your chest like "Uhm, excuse me!!!!!" to the strange gentleman who came in for a smooch?
Noticeably confused, the strange gentleman's painfully desperate like a ladybug who swooped down on the pool to get a drink but unfortunately got a little too close, "but ma'am," covering his mouth with one hand, pointing with the other, "it's your shirt!"
Oh, how this could be misconstrued! Touche!
How's this test message @dswigle?
Much better now! :) I can see you clearly.

I have passion and one must believe in its magic.
I express it in what I do but do not have words to describe it.
Maybe you will teach me.
I honestly think that with or without your words, your passion pushes through. I can feel your excitement for life, your passion for nature and so many other things! xoxo
I hope you are having an amazing day!
Such beautiful flowers
As fir the passion perhaps be ali had a break for a bit my passion is back for posting and I haven’t noticed the slump
That is awesome! The platform is quieter, but, there are some really passionate people out there!
Lovely as always.... nobody takes flower photos like you! 😍
Thank you. That means a lot coming from you. I hope you are enjoying the beautiful weather!
Nice thinking about love.
Thank you so much. I hope you are having a great day!
As usual, the thoughts you shared are worth pondering, and the flowers are gorgeous.
Thank you, you always leave me such kind words! I hope your day is awesome and as you can see, I am running on the late side.
Happy Saturday!
This is still the best game in town as far as I know. I still enjoy it. I post what and when I want. I have taken enough out so no matter if it blows up tomorrow, I had some fun and made a few bucks. Not too shabby all and all.
It's the only game I know, really. Oh, yeah. You have all the good moves down.
Perhaps I should have taken a page out of your book. I hope you have a great weekend! We are cooling down a little. That should at least make you feel like you are not missing out. A rainy front is going through today. Should be cleaned up later. But you know how good those weather men are.
