About L.U.V. and the C.B.B.

L.U.V. Enterprises is the parent company for a host of businesses, organizations and programs. Our motto is "Building the Village, Raising the Child". That doesn't mean we are starting from scratch. It means we are investigating what is in the village already, bringing it together and adding whatever is needed. 

L.U.V. is pronounced "Love" and gets its name from the scripture "God is Love". We are in HIS Love business. As you can see it is also an acronym meaning "learn ur value". After all, knowledge of self is where true Love genuinely begins. Finally, we employ an expanded meaning of of Love/L.U.V. as well; it is "the opportunity, blessing and challenge of seeing God/Goddess in others, especially when they don't see Them in themselves; honoring, reverencing and nurturing that God/Goddess within until They are manifest without."

As the Chief Bushel Blaster for L.U.V. Enterprises, besides bringing a little fun to a daunting position, Ms. Sanders takes her responsibilities very seriously. The name of the position is based on Matthew 5:14-16 where Jesus Christ is giving the Sermon on the Mount. 

He instructs:
"Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.

"Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.

"Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven."

A bushel is a unit of measurement. It is equal to about 9 gallons of liquid. Imagine a candle being covered with a container that could hold 9 gallons of liquid. That light would instantly be extinguished. 

Do you see where this is going? Translating to real life situations, a "bushel" can be any obstacle that keeps us from living up to our greatest potential. It is anything that extinguishes the light we were given to shine. And... that bushel could have been put there by anyone. 

Generally we are our own worst critics. But that self-inflicted criticism often stems from the criticism of others. Those are bushels. Parents, siblings, teachers, friends and even strangers will put bushels on our lights perhaps without even realizing it. When our lights are extinguished... (while some think they are simply dimmed) it is a travesty to the world. The world grows darker.

Is your light shining or it is imprisoned beneath a bushel or two or three or more? L.U.V. helps to get rid of them.

We are motivated to succeed by the Articles of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights adopted and proclaimed by the United Nations on December 10, 1948. Many of those rights are being violated in every town and city across the United States. Understanding this truth can we really expect the world to be better than the standard we are setting for it? We will set a higher standard and bring the world along with us. That means with more people letting their lights shine the world has no choice but to illuminate the dark places and let Love reign.

Our premier endeavor is the L.U.V. L.I.F.E. Cooperative. It is "the village in action, pooling our resources to make wanted and needed change". Among those needed and wanted changes is easier access to education, property and support services. These will be provided through the Luv Life initiative, PAID 2 Parent "bringing pleasure, appreciation, intelligence and dignity to parenting while being compensated for succeeding in the most challenging career in the world". 

We know there is a war on families and we intend to stop it. When families are forced to focus on money versus marriage and paychecks versus parenting then we have a serious battle to win. PAID 2 Parent will allow parents to focus on home first to assure their children are entering the world on solid ground. This program is a service provided by the membership dues collected through The Cooperative. (Please Note: The company picture is my son dressed as a warrior. He is my motivation for making the world a better place for individuals and families.)

The L.U.V. L.I.F.E. Cooperative membership site launches on Tuesday, December 10, 2019 to commemorate Human Rights Day. The primary goal of the funds is to acquire property, both residential and commercial, as the key to creating spaces that invite change. The funds will also support the families in our PAID 2 Parent programs.

Thank you for being a part of our journey. We hope you receive what you are searching for. Create today. It is amazing. May your choices make it the best day ever! Peace...
