Today's love expression is:
So, this expression is actually an old proverb.
And if you think about love and the world, the world is going round and round, spinning
and this proverb says that it's love and all of the loving relationships that make the world spin around or continue.
So, it means that love is kind of the key to life, I guess.

Do you have a date for Valentine's Day yet?
I really don't have time for such things.

Sorry, in my life money makes the world go round.
Okay, so in this case, you have a true romantic
and then the opposite, who is just money, money, money, business all the time, no time for love.
Money makes the world go round.
All right, let's listen to the second example.
I'd like to have a big dinner party for my birthday.
Sounds great, as long as Shawn doesn't come.
Oh, come on! You two need to stop fighting. Love makes the world go round.
I know, but I'm sorry. It's too soon. I can't be in the same room as him.
All right, so in this case, the two (people) maybe they broke up and have a terrible relationship and fighting
and the other friend says,
"You need to be friendly, because love is what helps the world go round and help us have a nice life."
All right, so let's try using this expression in your life and hopefully love makes your world go round too.
We'll see you next time.
