We all have wounds that still need to heal. But did you know mental wounds are just like physical wounds in the sense that we have to stop touching them to let them heal?

We watch it become irritated and not heal quickly.

#90 What the World Needs Now is Love
in 1965 Burt Bacharach wrote a classic song called What the World Needs Now and the lyrics to that song are just as relevant now as they were back then. This week I encourage you to stretch your mind around some of the lyrics in this song. How do you give and receive love? Do you only show love to those you care about? Do you believe everyone, regardless of their religious or political views deserve love? Everyday we are faced with many choices and we have control over whether we choose love in any given situation. Give yourself 8 minutes of mind stretching exercise and take a listen. You deserve love and you deserve to take the time for YOU.
