Love is a choice, not a tumultuous storm we weather. It is a commitment to virtue, both in ourselves and in another. We find joy not in fleeting passion, but in steady companionship and mutual respect. Through reason and self-control, we can cultivate love that endures hardship. Let us strive for this tranquil love, a source of strength and not of suffering.

A hand holds a golden-brown, triangular tortilla wrap on a red and green plaid surface, with text indicating it's a new favorite lunch choice.

A clear plastic container of Oscar Mayer Deli Fresh Honey Smoked Turkey Breast is displayed, showing product information and a family pack size.

My new favorite lunch choice

So good I love it so much. It’s better than a turkey sandwich you can use different meats. You don’t have to have lettuce. You don’t have to have cheese. It doesn’t have to be the exact same, but it’s so good. You guys should try. #lunchtimeideas

A lot of the formulas on the market are LOADED WITH HEAVY METALS, added sugars, genetically modified ingredients, carrageenan, hormones, artificial flavors, colorings, preservatives, and arsenic. As much as we feed our baby’s I want to give him the best option on the market. This one is all orga
