Love Daily: Unconditional Love, Nov. 14, 2010

Meditation to Enhance Love, November 8, 2010
While I am not a morning person, today during the early hours in TwitterTown, Pamela Reinsel Cotter, Thrive editor at the Providence Journal, and Projo Fitness Blog, caught my eye.

Love Daily: Cherish instead of criticize, Nov. 7, 2010
Did you ever hear a woman or man being critical of a partner or spouse in public? It is really unnerving. At a dinner party we once attended, silverware jangled each time a husband spoke and his wife snapped: “How many times do I have to tell you, that’s not how it happened?” These can…
