Make a place in your life for love

Today I read this in Positive Inspirational Quote (PIQ) in Facebook which deeply inspired me.

If there are things that are missing in your life, ask yourself this question. 
Have you given those things a place to live?

The person who has many friends is the person who has made a place for friendship in her life. 

The person who is amazingly knowledgeable is the person who has made a place for learning in his life.

In order to receive a delivery at your home, you must tell the delivery service where to take it. 

In the same way, for the best things in life to be yours, you must provide a space within your life where they can arrive.

Make a place in your life for love, and love will certainly fill it. 

Make a place within your life for joy, and joy will soon be there.

Create the time, the space, the energy, the interest, the passion and the commitment in your life for whatever it is you seek. And the things you seek will begin to inhabit the places you have made for them.

Give the best things in life a place to live within yourself. 

And you’ll soon find those things filling your world. 


~ Anu Sharma




Today I received an sms from a club member saying she wants out 'due to overwhelming increase in work commitments'. I felt sad for her because I knew she has not made a place for learning in her life. 


In the same way, after reading this quote, I realised that I have not made a place for love in my life. That is why I get so easily irritated and annoyed by my spouse and children when they clamour for my attention.  


"Love is patient, love is kind" ... It has to be that way.


Dear God, teach me to find a place for love in my life.
