THOUGHT OF THE DAY: I have a secret to share this morning, so listen up. And now here is my secret, a very simple secret; it is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye.* These words are from the famous children’s book The Little Prince. What do you think? Did you know that some scientists believe that love really is essential to the survival of human beings?
So remember this: Love may be invisible, but acts of love are easy to see. Today, focus on the bare essentials of life. Show somebody some love. This is one secret you don’t want to keep.
