"Love Is" Project
Based on post-it note definitions of “love” collected from thoughtful strangers. Although we may not all have the same definition of love, it's easy to relate to one another’s because we all know these warm fuzzy feelings! Thanks to everyone who wrote a definition.
How I relate: There's no better way for someone to tell me they love me than giving me something to eat!
How I Relate: Love is all about opening your heart to others, which in turn gives them the ability to hurt you. But what good is love without vulnerability? In my opinion, opening your heart gives someone else the opportunity to fill it!
How I relate: I’ve had a good share of crickets responding to my jokes, so when someone gets me and laughs as hard at my jokes as I do, I definitely feel the love!
