Profund Love

The deepest, most profound, most genuine love is so often expressed in the simplest ways. Those that love us spontaneously declare their love for us in the most ordinary ways that we fail to see and sense the love in their actions and instead relegate those actions to the routine. No act of love is routine or small or ordinary no matter how simply it is expressed. And when we fail to see the love in such behaviors we rob ourselves of the exquisite joy of knowing we are loved. And we let our inattentiveness--self-absorption--squelch the thankfulness that should be growing in our hearts. See! Look! Understand the simple ways those in your life declare their love for you in the ordinariness of every day. And continue to deeply love those that God has put into your life in those simple profound ways whether they sense your love or not.
If you must be thanked for your acts of love or praised for your acts of love, then your "lover" is yourself.
