What is the secret of love?

Dear Olivier,

In a word, the secret of love is GIVING. And with it goes FORGIVING. Giving and forgiving. Doing them well is REAL LIVING.

Those two things put you right in the center of God’s love.

And how do you find the secret of love? By singing HU with all the sweetness inside you. Is it easy to stay in that holy place once you find it? No, but try. No one is perfect, but give it your all.

So be easy on yourself when you find you’ve come up short. God will always love you.
