How do we woo someone?
We pay close attention to that person--who they are, what’s important to them, what brings them joy, where they hurt and what makes them feel good and loved and cared for. Then we do everything in our power to acknowledge these things about them and respond in ways that will convey how much we love them.
Yes, wooing is hard work! It takes focus, attentiveness, determination, time, energy, risk, and resources--to say nothing of the vulnerability and abandon required to make it truly genuine. And it may not pay off! Ah, but when it does.
Makes me wonder.
Where is it coming from? Seems like God/life/the universe/someone or something far beyond or deep within you and me is constantly wooing us. Whoever or whatever we call it, we’re being wooed by a presence that knows us intimately and loves us lavishly right here right now.
Take a moment to revel in the infinite love and beauty that are wooing you as go through this day. There’s probably only one thing that feels better in life than being wooed--and that’s knowing we’re being wooed.
TODAY.
LET’S GIVE THE WORLD & OURSELVES A GIFT.
LET’S TAKE TIME TO THINK ABOUT HOW WE THINK.
