Out of the simplicity of childhood...
This symbol, phrase, and site were born.
The Story
It started with a little boy and his passion for love and happiness in life.
My son, Martin had been telling me and others for quite some time to
think of Love when tensions were high.
Intertwined with his mother's mission to "Live Love" and his big sister's observational nature...
One
morning my daughter and I were getting dressed and I chose a favorite
t-shirt to wear over my trusty long sleeve winter T. It read, "Love is
Real".
Althea picked out a red long sleeve shirt with a sequined
heart, which set nicely over her heart. As she told me why she
was also going to wear her t-shirt with the peace symbol, also over her
heart, I felt love pour from her to me and back. She said she wanted to
be like me.
And she went on to say, "Mom, my shirt is red like a stop
sign and I'm wearing hearts for love."
It hit me like a
blazing ray of sun. I said, "Althea, that's it! Stop. Think of
Love."
In that moment, I envisioned the Stop.
Think of Love. sign you see here today and we work to deliver their
message to the world.
When any aspect of your life is less than you
desire,
may you also be inspired to Stop. Think of Love.
The world is waking up to the fact that our thoughts do influence our life experience. We have a choice, in every moment to essentially choose fear... or love. Choose love. Bring yourself back to the simplicity of love through the use of this phrase and the resources available!
Write it down, hang it up, tell your mother, and your friends.
