It’s All There Is

When actress Gwyenth Paltrow was 10 years old her father took her on a trip to Paris. As they were flying back home Gywneth’s father asked her, "Do you know why I took you to Paris – only you and me?...Because I wanted you to see Paris for the first time with a man who would always love you."

Thinking back on that experience Gwyneth says "You’ll never be happy if you can’t figure out that loving people is all there is – and that it’s more important to love than be loved."
