Love is in Our Hands! |
The Desperate Need for Touch
Some do not get to enjoy love's intoxicating fragrance and taste. Many feel no one cares about them. These live lonely, disappointed, detached and desperate lives. They feel extreme emotional pain feeling no one wants them to feel them, touch them or love them.
This perception prompts many to become addicted to substances, risky behavior and anything to numb the pain. People desperate for love and touch will do stupid things to get anyone to give them some attention.
They will give themselves to people who will only use them and not care about them, take from them and not give to them. When the users finish with them, they simply throw them away.
Ways to Touch with Love
Make a difference in someone's life this weekend if but for a moment. Spend time with a single parent. Take them to McDonalds. Buy their children happy meals, preferably healthy ones. After they eat, talk to parent while children play.
Hug someone who needs the comfort of touch. Where appropriate and safe for you, offer someone a feet, hand or back massage in a chair. If touching is not good for you, pool some money with friends and get a massage for someone.
Visit a nursing home and a senior you do not know to bring them a moment's joy. Call a member of your family. Let them know you were thinking about them.
Help someone with a chore. Help a student with study. Help a food pantry pack food boxes.
Love Gives Gratitude
After you give your love away this weekend loving others, give thanks. You will feel more thankful for the love alive in you and the love you share with the ones you share your love.
Show your gratitude by being aware of the love in your intimate touch you share. Hug a little tighter. Kiss a little longer. Express thankful happiness for the love you share. Smile. Feel love’s electrical glow.
