"general opinion's starting to make out that we live in a world of hatred and greed, but i don't see that. it seems to me that love is everywhere. often, it's not particularly dignified or newsworthy, but it's always there- fathers and sons, mothers and daughters, husbands and wives, boyfriends, girlfriends, old friends. when the planes hit the twin towers, as far as i know, none of the phone calls from the people on board were message of hate or revenge- they were all messages of love. if you look for it, i've got a sneaking suspicion... love actually is all around."

love actually is for sure one of my favorite movies. what a good message in this quote. this time of the year it's awesome to see the love people show. i do wish people were as giving and kind and loving all year as they were during Christmas time, but it's still special when this time of year comes around and you begin to notice these things more. honestly, this is why Christmas is my favorite time of the year. people notice the good, and find the good, and embrace the good in all things. because love actually is all around you just have to have the heart to see it.
