    Tina Turner asked this question but she downplayed the significance of love; calling it a ‘second-hand emotion’ and a ‘sweet old-fashioned notion'. But for those who understand the true essence of love it means much more. What’s love got to do with it?

    When canning fruits and vegetables, there have always been two primary ways to preserve them: as preserves, or pickled. The difference? Preserves are sweet but pickled things are sour. Which are you?

    ENVY is called a “green-eyed-monster” and can be defined as a resentful emotion which "occurs when a person lacks another’s (perceived) superior quality, achievement or possession and wishes that the other lacked it." Oh, but God’s love overcomes all.

But grief comes from losing something you’ve already had.” ― Jodi Picoult "Never underestimate the power of jealousy and the ...read more
