Golden Thread of Life: 99 Sayings on Love

If you ask anyone for the most beautiful word in their language, "Love" will be the most likely response. "The first happy memory of a child is the realization that he or she is loved," says John Bosco. The word "love" usually calls forth from us the most sublime sentiments: longing, pain and profound joy. Love is present in so many forms: between parents and children, among friends, between husband and wife; it sustains our care for neighbor and for the poor. All forms of love come from the same root and have the same goal, the same power. It is a power, which supports, spurns and strengthens. Love can be lived and experienced to the fullest but hardly put into words -- not even into 99 words. This little book will warm your heart. It is the perfect gift for someone you love.
