Communicate Love.

How do you share and communicate the love? 

The love of a moment. 

Sitting on the floor with your niece in the evening. While the adults live their life bustling, conversing, creating dinner above us. 

Laughing and sharing and conversing.

Them the bigs. 

Us the tinies.  

“You know where my favorite part of the house is? Sitting on the floor in the kitchen. My mom used to say get out of the kitchen! I need to make dinner!”

 It’s still one of my favorite places. The floor of a kitchen. 

After laughing, snuggling, ….being. I hear a little whisper.

“Do you know where my favorite part of the house is?”

“Where?”

“On my Auntie’s lap… sitting on the floor in the kitchen.”

That’s love. 

That’s why we embrace the pain. 

Those core memories of feeling loved and loving in return are why we love with our whole hearts. Those mo-ments are worth it. 

May we never become so callous as to reject relationship. 

May we always embrace love knowing life is not perfect. 

Knowing.. That in four days, we may never see each other. 

Knowing… in four days, we move again. 

Chaplaincy. This new adventure. 

Burdi love.
