Daily Question, November 7

Whose enduring love do I carry with me?

  • GCharlotte

    My.faithfully departed loved.

  • Papilio

    I was going to answer “my parents.” Then I remember that I found God’s love in kind words and actions by strangers and those who I barely knew their names when I was at the lowest point of my life. I’d like to say that I’m trying to carry God’s love with me though it is far from perfect.

  • Nothing & No One

    My parents. I wish I could repay it all one day. That day is nowhere in sight though. While they are still here.

    I am not sure I will ever have the means to do that financially but I want to try.

  • Sharon

    I carry with me the enduring love of my daughter, Amanda. I know that she loves me beyond measure and me, right back at her. We are lucky to not only love each other as mother and daughter, we are also best friends. I am so lucky for her.

  • Mica

    My dad’s and my son’s. I am a lucky woman!

  • Linda

    My father’s, who was a lifelong Democrat in a sea of Republicans, who held on to his belief that we should help others. I have carried that belief since I was young, and will carry it forward in this new era.

  • Lioness

    My husband right now, I am unable to be with him but his love resonates and guides me.

    • Dusty Su

      Ah, bless. That’s lovely but hard.
      For me, it’s my boyfriend. COVID has separated us continents apart.

  • Don Jones

    My Guruji. He has shown me things beyond my imagination. His devotion to humanity is beyond words. He is a shining beacon – my GPS (Guru Positioning System), my liberator.

  • Melissa

    My son and my twin brother. How lucky can one person be? The odds of being born with another human and close for life. To know that another person remembers a whole childhood of details and life. My twin and I make sure we survive and flourish through all hard times. To have someone who has got your back is a blessing I am so grateful for. For a son who when born connected me in spirit with all of humanity.

  • Zenith

    We cannot do what the daily word suggests. We cannot drop our boundaries and open ourselves to abusive people. There are certain people I simply cannot be nice to. As for carrying enduring love. That would be my father who passed 40 years ago, and an elderly friend of mine.

    • Mica

      I agree, Zenith, about today’s quote – thanks for sharing

  • pkr

    My daughter’s. I am so blessed to be her mom.

  • devy

    My wife is and has always been an independent person but she shows enduring love towards me by telling me every day. Even after 21 years together we hold hands when we walk and at times when we are watching tv together we will snuggle up on the Couch. She lets me know at times how much she appreciates me. Because of covid and keep ourselves in our bubble, we have become closer and have us see how well our relationship is.

  • kimthompsen

    I’ve never thought of this question before, so I am grateful for the prompt. And it reminds me that my husband loves me beyond belief, so it is his love that I carry with me.

  • Dieter

    I carry the enduring love of my partner, just this morning she told me how much she loves me and I can feel it every day. She is kind of relentless in her love and loves me even in our challenging moments so much that I can feel it even then. This is such a blessing and I am very grateful to the great divine for it.

  • Michele

    My mom’s. I miss her.

  • sunnypatti

    God’s, my parents’, and my partner’s. Their love is enduring, strong, and reliable. It doesn’t depend on situations or circumstances. It just is. I feel very blessed to feel that love and know that I am worthy of it!

  • Kevin

    Whose enduring love do I carry with me? For me, this question is easy; My wife of 47 years, Betty Ann! She is the most wonderful thing that has ever happened to me.

  • Howie Geib

    My parents’ as I am the expression of their deep love for one another, and now I am all that remains behind as a testament to them. It is a thing I feel a sense of stewardship for. I have no partner, a bit of a monastic in that way, so mechanically my heart seems to focus on outward expressions rather than earning the admiration of other hearts, although I am blessed with many that do care deeply for and about me. For which I feel grateful and mostly unworthy.

    • Zenith

      I have no partner either but do have adult children and siblings.

    • Kevin

      Howie, this is beautiful. And though I do not know you well, I can say with certainty that you are anything BUT unworthy. You lift everyone’s heart on this site daily, for starters.
