Framing Love

Frederick Buechner uses the example of a frame to set something off. It is designed to make us stop and pause long enough to pay attention. He goes on to say, "If we are to love our neighbors, before doing anything else we must see our neighbors." He goes on to explain: "With our imagination as well as our eyes, that is to say like artists, we must see not just their faces but the life behind and within their faces. Here it is love that is the frame we see them in." (p. 51-53, Listening to Your Life)

Frame some loved one today, just like you do in silver frames. Really see them, enjoy them, admire them, and truly love them.
