We don’t need more love. We are love. Let’s love more.
Pull Back The Curtains
Even the closest, most trusted people in our lives have opinions about how we “should” see the world. If you are forever looking at the opinions of others, you are missing your unique opportunity to see life with your own eyes. To feel life with your heart. To experience life with your soul. To move through live in your own, authentic way. Mishaps and missteps. Milestones and miracles. Pull the curtains back!
We Can
We can control our intentions and our responses. We can choose to be present in the moment and move with grace and love. We can unlearn. We can acknowledge the lesson and release it. We can face our pain and make healthy decisions to heal it. We can be exactly who we are meant to be.
This Moment
Being present is not a trend. It’s a way of living. It’s not the norm because we are taught and encouraged to chase the next. To seek the prize. As if there is any greater prize than having a life to live. Consider nurturing a mindset of being present. Giving all you’ve got to each moment. Rather than thinking about what has happened or what may happen, be completely with what is happening. To have a moment to live...that.
One
Our beliefs come from our experiences. Therefore, the grand discussion is really not about which belief is more noble, but instead, how influential was the experience? Furthermore, having a different past experience could have established a different current belief. Even more than that, opening yourself up to new experiences can affect and even create new beliefs. And in all of this, no matter the experience or the belief, we can ground ourselves in accepting and honoring that we are One.
You Are Pure
We all get distracted from recognizing the purity, the beauty, and the splendidness of our true self in the moment. And yet, it remains. What causes us to be so distracted and more so, label oneself something one is not? Simply stated, our minds. Our experiences from the past. Our expectations about the future. Our looping of what ifs. The bombardment of cultural and societal shoulds. All of this feeds our minds to construct myths which distract us from what is. Strip away the outside landscape, silence the outside noise, let go of the past and the future. What is left? A beautiful, pure soul lovingly basking in the present moment.
Spread Love
Let’s do this!
We are love. We have the capacity to love. We can make the choice to love. We are one in love. Think love. Speak love. Be love.
Believe
It’s within you. Yes it is. You have the freedom to make the choice to be positive. Of course we experience challenges, loss, and pain. But those experiences need negativity to survive. Instead, you can dig deep and summon the strength to feed positivity to those experiences. Your positive energy has the power to transform challenges into an opportunities, loss into acceptance, and pain into healing. Believe.
Only Love
Not fear. Not judgment. Not anger. Not conspiracy. Not hate. Not indifference. Not resentment. Not pessimism. Not revenge. Not doubt. Not prejudice. Not racism. Not conditions. Not comfort. Not separation.
Enough is enough. We’ve tried all those other things. They don’t work. The only thing that connects us is LOVE. Love without thinking.
What Are You Feeding?
Love Is Simple
We have found different ways and words to justify the judgment of others. Social media and cancel culture. Anonymous attacks to expose. All done for the greater good. Shaming, in any context, does not teach or heal. We have become so removed from love energy that it is no longer our primary expression with each other. We reserve it as we create conditions. We deny it to determine if it’s deserved. We preach oneness and practice separation. We ask for positivity and share negativity. Love is simple, but we’ve made loving difficult.
What Have You Done?
Hard Truth
How you speak to yourself and treat yourself makes all the difference in the world. We want to thrive and grow. We have hurt that needs healing. We have dreams we yearn to pursue. In all of it, being honest and meeting ourselves where we are at deserves our tenderness, our compassion, our patience. Though the truth may be hard, how we move into and through it can be graceful.
Face Yourself
We are not our fears. We do give them a place to live within us. We do nurture them with limiting beliefs. We do attach to the expectations we want from our experiences and relationships. We can become aware. We can set intentions. We can accept and release. We can heal. We can love. We can live our truth.
Loss As A Doorway
Seeing loss as a doorway shifts the perspective. A doorway is an entry point, not the destination. A doorway invites movement. A doorway is a boundary. Seeing loss as a doorway can also bring awareness to attachment. This commitment to self awakens emotions, inspires deep introspection, and creates space for acceptance. Movement.
Are You Being Honest?
As you journey into self-love, healing, love, discovery, relationships, career....your life, you need to be honest with yourself and those in your life.
Be Curious
When we are hurting, it can be difficult to lean in and face the pain. Oftentimes, we just want to avoid it and hope it goes away. And then our minds run wild with judgments and stories about the past and the future. In the present moment is where we can unlearn our patterns and learn lessons. If we choose to be curious about what is hurting within ourselves and question the pain, the experience can shift from heartache to healing. Sure, it may feel excruciating. It can also be illuminating. You begin to understand rather than replay. This experience is unique for each individual as well as possible for each individual.
Radical Love
Love energy is the most divine and transformative energy. It is within all of us. It connects all of us. Love is how we accept, release, heal, teach, learn, and evolve. Radical love is about no longer settling. No longer compromising. No longer hiding behind contentment while your inner fire burns. Radical love is next level living.
Healthy Distractions
Engaging in activities that are positive and productive can benefit our wellness, sense of self-worth, and attitude. However, to force engagement, even in something healthy, and not also work on your pain, trauma, and darkness is fear-based. It tends to be more about hiding instead of healing.
