Day 1 #Loveuary❤ – What Is Love?

Welcome to day one of #Loveuary!

February is here, the month of love, and I wanted to celebrate this wonderful emotion, but attempting to post about love each and every day.

First of all, we need to define what love is…

“Love is not merely an emotion felt due to romance, there are so many loves out there. Family, friends, pets, favourite songs/movies/books, things to do/eat… You can feel love for anything. Each type of love touches your heart and life in a different way, filling you with warmth.” – Ritu Bhathal 2017

A verse I penned previously gives an indication of what love means to me.

love

Love is my life
Love is my hope
Love is my saviour
Love helps me cope
Love keeps me near
Love takes me far
Love can be blind
Love, a bright star
Love helps me see
Love is in me

As you know, I am embarking on a month of love related posts, be it creative or thoughts from the heart. I don’t know if anyone is interested in accompanying me on my journey of ‘love’ but if you are crazy enough to join me, here are the rules.

Below are a set of possible prompts, if you need them. They are a mixture covering many aspects of ‘love’.
Please don’t feel tied to this list, you can post whatever you want, as long as it’s love related, be it poetry, prose, opinion, photos, or even songs!
If it makes life easier, tie it in with other prompts or challenges you may already take part in. Just remember the #Loveuary tag and ping back to my daily post!
I will aim to post daily at around 5am GMT, so if you are taking part, try and link back to my #Loveuary post of the day, so I can read your post, and others can also pay you a visit.
Tag your posts with #Loveuary so they can be found a little easier too!
Ping back to my post of the day, or leave me a link in the comments to your post for that day.

The last day (sob sob!) of #JusJoJan 2017 by Linda!

The Just Jot It January 31st prompt, brought to you by Lorraine of My Frilly Freudian Slip, is: “Detritus.” Use it any way you’re inspired to. And make sure you stop by and say hi to Lorraine as well! Here’s her blog: https://myfrillyfreudianslip.wordpress.com/

Sometimes I wonder why you are here.

Yes you, the reader!

I don’t half post some rubbish, or detritus, as it were, yet you still keep coming back for more!

I’d hate for this to be an awful last post for the challenge but I simply can’t think of anything else to write!!!

Thank you, Linda for a fabulous start to my 2017 with this awesome challenge of yours, and huge appreciation to those bloggers who helped Linda host it, and to those that came up with the various prompt words! You are all most definitely NOT rubbish!!!

Luv y’all heaps!

Oh, and I have started a new thing for February, if any of you daily posters are interested in a little extra challenge!!

So today is the last day of #JusJoJan, and I think I am going to miss this daily challenge, so…

loveuary

…I am going to try and continue to post daily, during the month of February, something ‘Love’ related, in this month of love. It could be romantic, a little naughty, but also I’ll try and encompass other loves, from familial, to friendship, along with other things. If you fancy posting, like me, then that’s great! Just link to my post so I know you have posted!
