It’s finished!

I can’t believe February has come to an end, meaning my month of #Loveuary has also come to a close.

I have had an awesome month, and have enjoyed trying to spread a little more love out there into the world!

I’d like to thank my lovely blogging family for taking part in this with me!

Judy, Erika, Willow, Rich, Syl, Ladylee, ShanJeniah, Tim, Shiva, Robbie, Sangbad, Anisha, Lisa…

…to name a few! I apologise if I missed anyone, but rest assured I have appreciated the support from you all!

Some of you posted daily with me, some dipped in and out. Some were in it for a single post.

Hey, that’s all good!

I think the most important thing is to continue the love in our day to day lives.

Now… What to do in March…?

I’ll hold your hand
For a lifetime, I promise you
I’ll share your ebbs and flows
You’re my lifeline, I cherish you
I’ll love you no matter what
You’re my heartbeat, I need you
I’ll be there for eternity
You are me, I am you

To Be Loved

To be loved
The most precious feeling
To know you care
It’s soul healing
To feel your embrace
Warms the heart
The touch of your lips
Heats other parts
To know you’re there
Come good or bad
By my side
Whether happy or sad
To love someone
Can be bittersweet
To know you’re loved
Makes you complete

Spidey’s Serene Sunday – Part 106 – #Loveuary❤ Special

Today Spidey will quote a fellow blogger, who commented on last week’s post. We both loved the words, and felt they needed sharing!

“Love lasts many seasons and can last a lifetime if you tend its garden.” Tony Burgess

True love is not effortless. In order for it to last, you both need to put in the time and effort to keep it going.

It is ever changing, blossoming in different ways at each stage.

Each stage requires a different form of nurturing.

Love evolves when you’re with ‘The One’. Its face changes, your feelings morph, but as long as you are willing to move with it, change it, tend it, as Tony says, it will last a lifetime.

Happy Sunday Peeps! ❤
