"We all get busy, chasing our career, paying the mortgage, doing the school run. It’s hard not to get distracted and lost in the daily blur of our lives. Life can be a full-time preoccupation. But when we come to our senses, which we inevitably do, we know that love is our greatest happiness and also the real work of our lives. In short, life is all about love, and even when it isn't, it still is really," writes Robert Holden in Loveability.Loveability, the latest book by Robert Holden, is a practical meditation on love.
