Reconnecting with Love

Today I'd like to take you to a sacred place.  For moments in your life you receive reflections.  It's in the quietness when you observe a newborn baby, or admire snow glistening on the tree branches.  In those moments there is a feeling inside of you.  A quiet stillness, a knowing.  That feeling is love.

Our admiration for simple pleasures in life, not the man made ones, but the stuff we are really made of, draws us closer to our source.  Closer to God and our true natures.

Since Michaels death I've often asked what it will be like when I get there.  Who will be there?  How will it feel?  He always answers that I'll be surprised.  There are many people waiting for us when we cross and we are always greeted with love.

Currently our world is in great need of more love.  More precisely put, we need to get back in touch with love.  War, crime, terrorism, you name it, has invaded our world like a rampid disease.  We have taken our focus from our internal natures and have placed it on the outside.  Outside luxuries aren't wrong, but they can never replace what is needed and longed for inside.

Inside you know you need love and nurturing to bloom and grow, just like a flower.  Many of us reach for these things in buying things to make us feel better, earning more money, or if we are mistreated, by mistreating others.  People and children who grow up with violence often act violently themselves.  That's what we've been taught.  That's sometimes all we know.

But lives like this leave us feeling lonely and we will most often know inside something is missing in our lives.  Some of us won't be able to put our finger on it.  Others will know instinctively it's love.

If you're a reader of this blog, you'll know how often I've often rolled my eyes when I've been told to write another post about love, but I have to agree it can't be said enough.  That is what we need and if it's the stuff we are made of, people need to know how to bring it back into their lives and into our world.

Twin souls share a sacred space between them.  When you join in union there is a sense of completeness and bliss that you can only call love.  It's love like I've never felt before from another human being.  It is divine, complete and unconditional.  It wraps around you and within you like warm soup.  Reflecting on this and the fact that all of us long to unite and be brought back together, I've been searching my mind and soul for glimpses of this love in our outer world that people can relate to.  And, it's in those quiet moments.  Those moments that don't say anything.  It is the moments of stillness and internal elated rising of emotion from within that seem to be the moments that we connect most with the love that we are.

You can name yourself anything you want.  You can say you are a convict, a bank robber, a horrible mother or father, but I can bet that every one of us has had at least one of these moments in our lives.  Today I'd like you to go to that moment.  Recreate it within yourself and carry that feeling with you.  No matter how lonely or how hard life can get, you can always reach for that moment and know you are never truly alone and can carry that love with you.  Knowing the real beauty of the life you were meant to live.
