“When You Are Loved You Are at Peace and When You Are at Peace, You Are Loved” - Greta Francesca Iori

Since the pandemic began I have been a follower and supporter of Greta Francesca Iori. Greta is a wildlife and conservation adviser to African Governments, International Organisations and NGO's. I first came across Greta on the internet whilst learning about the on-going conflict between humans and elephants, and her work is worthy of worldwide appreciation. She shares my passion and enthusiasm for the environment as well as the continent of Africa. 

In an interview with Damaris Agweyu, Greta mentioned the quote used in the title of this blog post: "When you are loved you are at peace and when you are at peace, you are loved". Don't we all desire peace and love, what an amazing quote! But what does this mean? 

Greta comments that since we are not capable of seeing a complete picture or perspective of things, we should all strive to show compassion and adaptability. Similarly, when I consider this quote, it reminds me that to feel at peace and loved, I first have to be at peace and love my environment and other people, especially our family. 

Don't forget! You and I have always and will always be loved by some ONE.
