I'm writing this Love Thursday post from my studio in the attic while The Weepies and my daughter Madeleine keep me good company.  We can't stop listening to "Somebody Loved."  Do you know it?  Here are a few of my favorite lines:

Now my feet turn the corner back home
Sun turns the evening to rose
Stars turning high up above
You turn me into
You turn me into
You turn me into somebody loved

What is it about the sweet companionship of another dear soul that transforms you into somebody loved?  It can happen in an instant--the unexpected smile of your favorite baby, the confidence of a much needed sage, the quiet admiration of a little brother--and before you know it your soul fills up with the knowledge your presence matters.

This Love Thursday I hope you are surprised by all the ways kindness is turning you into somebody loved--I can't wait to see your images.  And if you feel lost today on the road to love, don't despair.  Your eye through the viewfinder will remind you love is all around you, that all the love you need is coming your way, sooner than you think.
