Love is alive......
The more that I come to know love, the more I feel it as the creative impulse of life, itself.
Love is alive. Like a Divine spark that spreads itself from the heart to the mind, love illuminates every corner of the body with conscious awareness. As we open to love, each cell fills with joy, and we discover that our own nature is innately compassionate, kind and giving.
Give life your open heart.....
In Realizing Love, the mind grows receptive to inner-vision and becomes a beacon of clarity reflecting the wisdom of an awakened heart. An awakened heart is an open one. And so, the way I see it, each of us is here to open our heart…..to learn how to walk through this world unguarded, even when the world gives us so many reasons to shut down, to feel broken and defensive. If we can show up for life each day with an open heart, ready to meet whatever experiences the world may bring, we will do much for the healing of humanity and the caring of the soul.
Listen to your soul.....
In every moment of every day, the soul is trying to communicate to us. It lets us know whether the decisions we’re making are in honor of the heart's motive for love. The soul often speaks in energetic nuances and strong emotional responses. It uses the body as a reflective feedback loop to indicate the state of our own mind, and it uses the world around us to reflect the quality of our choices.
Recognize how you keep yourself from love.....
When we become too tense with too much busy living, over burdened by responsibilities and unresolved past woes, we literally tighten up and block the flow of love, thus blocking ourselves from being fully present where we are. When we “tighten up”, it is a systemic reaction. The thoughts in our mind circle incessantly as though caught within the grip of an ethereal fist. Energetically everything seems to freeze up and we may begin to notice an absence of flow in our lives. When we tighten up physically for any great length of time, we develop what we call illness. Too much tightening can create conditions such as heart disease where very little joy is present in the veins carrying the blood to the heart. Our hearts become literally starved for positive, life-giving energy.
Relax, and re-open.....
So how to remedy this self-created state of disconnection? Quite simply put, we need to relax—to “let go and let God” and love again. Relaxation needs to be a holistic experience if we are to unwind and open up. Meditation can help to relax the mind, whereas prayer relaxes the heart. As the mind opens, the heart becomes accessible and the clearing of blocked energies happens naturally. The heart being the center of so much within our energetic and physical function, can affect the over-all state of harmony in amazing ways, and thus the flow of life begins to restore itself.
Make way for Heaven on Earth......
The more room we create for love in our lives, the greater soul presence we seem to have, and life takes on a whole new direction. It becomes a series of synchronistic events—guided by a subtle inner-impulse—clear and on purpose, nothing by mistake. This is when we begin to really live Heaven’s mandate for us, and we come to know the God of our own being. God, joy, love, Heaven……..all words used to describe the same presence, for what is the energy of Heaven, if not Love?
We are here for love....
This is what I honestly believe we are all doing here…..realizing the love that we are, that is all around us, waiting for us to choose IT—to choose Heaven now. This is what life is for……to fully open our hearts, to really know what it is to love, and to allow ourselves to be loved, no matter what bank of fears each of us starts out with. ~~~
