A house is a house until love comes through the door and love intuitively goes around sprinkling that special extra that transforms a house into a very special home for very special people:your family.
Money,of course,can build a charming house,but only love can furnish it with feeling of home.
Duty can pack adequate sack lunch,but love may decide to tuck a little love note inside.
Money can provide a television set, but love controls it and cares enough to say no and take the guff that comes with it.
Obligation can cook a meal,but embellishes the table with potted ivy trailing around slender candles.
Duty writes many letters, but love tucks a joke or apicture or a fresh stick of gum inside.
Compulsion keeps a sparkling house. But love and prayer stand a better chance of producing a happy family.
Duty gets offended quickly if isn't appreciated. But love learns to laugh a lot and work for the sheer joy of doing it.
Obligation can pour a glass of milk,but quite often love will add a little chocolate.
