What do you see when you turn on the TV? What is taking over our social media news feeds? Hate. There is so much hate in the world and it is sickening. The Black Eyed Peas said it best, so “where is the love?” We all go through our own struggles, and sometimes all we need is a little love. I want to inspire you all to find what you love.
Here are 100 things that I love:
