Flow of Love

Mist at Tone River

4/15/17

The flow
of a river –
no matter
how big
or how small
the river is,
there is a current,
a movement,
a flow.

And do you
not feel
this current
when you walk
in the river –
you may not
see the direction
of the water
moving on
the surface,
but a current
runs deep,
there is a
direction,
a movement,
a flow.

And does not
this current
pull along
whatever has entered
the water,
the flow,
yes the physical properties
of the earth,
the laws of nature,
can explain
how a river flows,
but is there not
a mystical pull,
a mesmerizing draw
to the sound,
the movement,
the feel,
as you dip
your hand
in the water
to experience
the current,
the flow?

And yes,
you can experience
the current
of a river
by paddling a canoe
or kayak
through waters
that move,
that flow –
and do you
not feel as one
with the water
if you are able
to navigate well –
and not
bump into rocks
or to paddle
against the current –
do you not
feel and sense
when you are
in the flow?

Will the flow
not carry you along
if you allow yourself
to be guided –
once you are
“In the flow”
do you not need
to work so hard?

Is there not
a flow,
a current,
a movement
of least resistance
when you experience
the flow,
the “sweet spot”,
when everything
comes together
and unfolds
with perfect timing –
when a task
feels easy,
when you are not
fighting to move
upstream –
would you not
prefer to be
moving with
the flow?

Are there not
obstacles or bumps
along the way
that give you clues,
that allow you
to make adjustments,
so you may navigate
a smoother route
to take?

A task may
be daunting,
but are you not
able to accomplish
what you thought
was insurmountable –
when you put
yourself in
the Flow of Love
and allow yourself
to be guided
with love and support
along the way?

Ask for help.
Step into the Flow.
As you go
with the current,
the movement
of the Flow of Love –
can you let
it unfold
in front of you?

There is much
to experience
in life –
and like the river,
there will be obstacles
that you encounter
along the way –
but as you let
the Flow of Love
be your guide,
might you experience
a smoother ride?

Let go.
Step into the Flow.
Let Love surround you
as you experience
the movement,
the current,
the Flow of Love
That You Are.
Be One with Love
and Flow.

Room for Love

Step aside.
Make room.
Surrender.

If you are
grappling with
an issue,
tension mounts,
and you feel tight,
may you loosen
up your grip,
let go –
slip into
the energy of surrender.

When you realize
you do not have
all of the
answers you
think you need,
is there not help,
Divine Guidance?
Let go –
slip into
the energy of surrender.

Letting go
is not giving up,
but it may be
giving to –
do you not
nod your head
and acknowledge,
there is something
greater than you –
can you feel
the Love
that steps in,
when you step aside
and make room
for the loving energy
that flows –
when you let go
and slip into
the energy of surrender?

May you feel
some relief
that you are not
in this alone?
You may think
you have control,
that it is all
up to you –
does that thinking
not back you up
against a wall –
do you not need
space to breathe,
and to Be?

Is there not
more room
to breathe,
to work things out
more efficiently,
when you partner
with the Love,
the guidance,
the co-creation –
when you let go
and slip into
the energy of surrender?

Step aside.
Make room.
Surrender.

As you open
up this space –
knowing it is
not all up
to you –
there is intelligence
in the Love
that flows –
do things not
fit together
and work out
when you let go
and slip into
the energy of surrender?

As you make room
for Love,
is not Love
making room
for You –
to see the Whole,
to be in the
Flow of Love
that smoothes
out the path
in front of you –
you need not fight
to make things fit –
when you let go
and slip into
the energy of surrender.

Work with Love.
Flow with Love.
Make room for Love.

Let Love.
Be Love.
Surrender.

Connect With Love

What connects you
to more than you –
to the greater aspect
of You,
that is connected
to All That Is?

You may stand
with your arms
out wide
to soak up
the light of a
moon beam,
so bright,
that it casts shadows
in the darkest night –
are you not
connected now?

You may turn
your face up
to the warm
spring sun
and sense
the turn
toward spring,
bringing hope
and light
as you bask
in the warmth
of the sun’s
healing rays –
are you not
connected now?

You may smile back
at a child’s
smiling face –
a face open
and free
with no walls
in between –
does not a
simple smile
radiate an
open heart –
are you not
connected now?

There are moments
in your day,
when you take
time to pause –
you catch a glimpse
or share a moment,
when you discover,
as you sense
these connections,
as do they not
feel so good –
are you not
always connected
to Love?

When you feel alone
or when you
feel small,
you have forgotten
that You Are
always connected
to All That Is.

You Are
the moon,
that brightens
the night.
You Are
the sun,
that warms
your face.
You Are
the Love
looking back
at you –
do you see
you are
connected Now?

As You Are
an aspect
of All That Is –
are you not
always connected
to Love?

There is no more
that you need do.
Connect with You.
Connect with All.
Connect with Love.

Words of Love

heartwords

4/09/17

Words.

You use words
to convey
meaning,
thought,
and when words
are put together
in a beautiful,
loving way,
might they
express emotion,
emit a feeling
that goes beyond
a jumble of
words fitting together
on a page.

And do you
not use the expression,
“there are no words”
when the mere word
cannot stand up
to the emotion,
the vision,
the feeling,
that you experience
within your heart?

But you will
always go back
to words –
for as Love Is
expressed
in an infinite
number of ways –
is there not
a pull
to describe
the Language of Love?

There has been
a never-ending
number of words
that have been written
to define
to convey,
to express
what Love Is –
and will there
not be an unlimited
number more?

And do you
not try to
“put into words”
how a song
“strikes a chord”
and resonates with you –
do you not use words
to describe a
painting
that is truly
beyond words,
but are you
not compelled
to use words
to share
that experience,
the depths of feeling
that it brings –
do you not sometimes
think a feeling
has not happened
until you share it
with words?

Is not the
Language of Love,
in whatever form
it takes,
is it not
meant to be shared,
is there not
a pull to describe,
what is indescribable –
for how can words
convey the magic,
the beauty,
the experience
of Love?

But as words
are more than
words written on
a page –
are not words
another gateway
to your soul?

Do you not
first need to feel,
to go within,
to free your mind –
are not words
another means,
another way
to experience
and Be –
using the
Language of Love
to express what
Love Is?

There have been
many words written
and there will be
many, many more –
if words are a
way to share
the Love of
All That Is –
Be loving
with your words –
let words express
the Language of Love.

Write Love.
Express Love.
Share Love.
Be Love.

May these
Words of Love
remind You that
You Are Loved.

With Love

When you are not sure
how to move forward,
what is the next
step to take,
what decisions need
to be made,
when you seek
more clarity –
ask with Love.

There is momentum
in movement,
as you take
your first step –
do you not start
a ball rolling –
will not one movement
lead to another –
can you feel
the energy shifting?
Move with Love.

And with movement
comes a rhythm,
like a train
moving down the track –
linked with cars
behind it follow,
joining in the adventure –
are you not ready
to keep riding,
to see where you
may go?
Explore with Love.

And if you wish
to change direction,
to move to another track,
another experience
may await you –
you are the
conductor on this train –
now that you are moving
it is easy to make
a switch –
there are many paths
to explore.
Change with Love.

You are here
to experience.
You are here
to embody
the Love That You Are.
With Love,
are there not
infinite possibilities
to Be the Love
That You Are?

How can you
ever not be
with Love?

As You Are Love –
Love is always
with You.

With Love,
You Are and
All Is Well.

Timeless

Time is a
linear concept
that you use
to get through
the linear world
that you live in,
work in,
play in.
And yes,
time helps you
to be at
a certain place
at a certain time.

But does not
the concept of time
hover over
your shoulder –
perhaps does time
get more attention
than it deserves?

With time,
you are able
to look back
in time,
to a perceived
beginning –
or to look ahead
to what may be,
what is on the
schedule,
how long will
something last,
when will it end?

Does time not
dwell in the
concept of
a beginning
and end –
is not time
a marker for what
starts and stops,
what moves along
the timeline
of your life?

But as You Are
more than this
human existence –
as You Are Spirit
with an everlasting
soul –
are there not times
when the concept
of time
disappears from
your view?

When you are in
a moment of peace
and tranquility –
is that not a time
when the concept of time
has no place –
or when you are
lost in a project
that brings you Joy –
is that not
a beautiful and peaceful
place to Be?

Might you imagine
when there is no time
tugging at your awareness,
giving you reminders –
is that not a sign
that you are
in the flow,
be-ing in the moment –
is not time a reminder
of your humanness –
with a perceived beginning
and a supposed end?

But as you have
experienced
time standing still –
as you are aware
that You Are more
than what can be
measured in time –
might you acknowledge
that there is
a part of You
that transcends time?

Yes, use time
to organize and structure
your time on earth –
but make time (smile)
to be in the timeless state
of the Love That You Are –
the Place of Peace
where time stands still –
where all you know
is That You Are
expressing,
experiencing,
You.

You Are timeless.
You Are limitless.
In every moment,
You Are Love.

Be Love

Be You.

You Know 
Who You Are.

Yes, there are
human experiences
you would
rather forget;
clothes you have worn,
phases you have
gone through,
experiences you
would never
have signed up for.
Be You.

Is there not comfort
in embracing
and accepting you?

There is no need
to “be” someone else,
to look like another,
to emulate
what someone else
has done –
You Are
the perfect you
That You Are.
Be You.

And as you
celebrate the
uniqueness of you,
feeling Love at
your core,
as you peek under
the human qualities
that define you
in this world –
when you sense there
is a greater definition
to you –
does not
Be-ing You
vibrate with
a larger resonance?
Be You.

And in this awareness
that begins to seep into
your human consciousness –
does it not make sense
that this vibration
of the Love That You Are
stretches beyond
the limits you place
upon this existence –
do you not on some level,
always know that
Love never dies –
and as You Are Love,
how can you not
Be Love?
Be You.

Yes, you are
a wonder –
you can be you,
unique in your life,
a “one of a kind,”
but as there are limitless
“kinds” of Love,
as You Are One
with All That Is –
are you not an expression
of the Love That You Are,
Be-ing Love?
Be You.

Embrace the dichotomy –
as You Love you
and Love You.

The unique you,
the one you,
the You Are One
with All That Is –
Who Are You?
You Are Love.

Be You.
Be Love.

What If Love?

What if . . .

There are many
questions that
the human mind has –
many answers
that you seek,
often in the
search for Why,
to provide meaning,
for understanding,
or so you think.

And do not
many questions;
“why did that . . .”
“what do I . . . “,
look for answers
that fit into
your belief system –
as do you not look
to that system
to give you a context
that your human mind
needs to
makes sense of
what is happening
around you?

But does this
type of questioning
not keep you in
a neat and tidy box –
a box of beliefs
that uses other beliefs,
to answer the questions
that you have?

Now come back
to the question,
the energy of –
What if . . . .?

Do you not
feel the lid
lifting off
of the box
with this
Question of Possibility –
is it not a question
that questions
your beliefs?

Yes – as you have
a questioning mind,
can you not use
your curiosity,
your thirst for knowledge,
your drive to understand –
can you shift
your focus
from making sense
of what has been
to looking forward
and contemplating –
What if?

Instead of making
things fit
into a neat and tidy box,
for is it not hard
to see the Light
when inside a box –
can there not
be varying options,
“what if this . . . ”
or “what if that . . .” –
can you imagine
each “what if”
pushing a hole
through the box –
does not each opening
let the Light
come shining in?

And as these
rays of Light,
each inspired thought,
each possibility of
What If –
as you expand and grow,
are you not creating
with Light
instead of being
contained in a box?

As You Are
a creation
of All That Is –
are you not
a creative
Force of Love?

What If.
Imagine.
All Is Possible
as All Is Love.

Light and Love
cannot be
contained within
a box.
Take off the lid
and let your
Light and Love shine.

What if –
You Are Love?
Limitless.
Possible.
Love.

Connect to Love

Connected.

You are always connected
to Source,
to God,
the Universe,
the Divine –
it matters not
what you label
the Source of Love,
the Source of You –
even as your ego,
your human mind
tries to convince you
that you are separate
and on your own –
You Are always connected
to Love.

Do you not feel
these connections,
sense the Web
that you cannot see –
when you are in
a State of Awareness,
there is support
on the periphery –
you can almost see it,
you can almost grasp it –
is it not a feeling
that the next step
you take,
is being guided
in a loving way?

Connected.

And as You Are
part of this greater Web,
connecting You to
All That Is –
can you not sense
a familiarity when
you connect with
another person
that you are to meet,
when you enter
a place you feel
you’ve been to before,
when you listen to music
that stirs your soul
into remembering –
do these senses you have
not satisfy
a longing you have
to feel at Home,
to belong to something
greater than you?

Do you not seek
these connections
that connect you to
your Higher Self,
the Source of Love
of All That Is –
is this not a search for
Who You Are?

You Are always connected.
You cannot Be
anything but Love.
Is it not in the remembering
that you light up the Web –
to see how strong
these connections are –
can you surrender
into Knowing
that what you are
looking for
is already within
your heart?

With the Light and Love
that reside in your heart,
are you not connected
to the Love of
All That Is?

Follow the connections
to Source,
to God,
the Universe,
the Divine.

It is not at the end
and there is no beginning –
You Are always
connected to Love.

Relate to Love

Relationship.

Is this not a word
to describe interactions
that you have
with other people,
does not the word
define this –
how do you relate
and where are you
relative to each other?

In the world
of duality,
is there not
great learning –
as you experience
so much about you,
in how you relate
to those around you,
in the relationships
you seek,
and also in the ones
you find yourself in –
that maybe you would not
have chosen to be?

Are there not people
in your lives
who are there
to help you learn
a little more
about yourself –
giving you opportunities
to see how
you relate?

Relationship.

Is there not often
a push and pull
when there is clamoring
to see –
who is “right”
or who is “wrong?”
When the focus
is on persuasion
to get another
to see your point,
do you not often
wish to change
the other person
in relation
to you?

But could you
not change your focus,
observing how you interact,
noticing your reactions –
can you follow
the thread of emotion
that comes up
for you to see?
You may have thought
that your goal
was to change
another’s mind,
but is not interaction
giving you opportunities
to interact with You?

Relationship.

Is it not this duality
that helps you see
where You Are –
do not others
provide the mirror
that you can see
yourself in –
and what is the
image you
wish to see?

Can you extend Love
with a listening ear –
can you stand
in your own Truth –
and be grateful
when another
helps you see
where You Are?
Do not others
help you see
the relationship
you have to the
Love That You Are?

Does it not help
when you align
yourself to Love?

Be grateful for interactions.
Love all reactions.
And as you embrace
the Love That Is You –
can you not help
but embrace the Love
you see in All?

See Love.
See You.
Relate to Love
as Love Is
All There Is.

And You Are That –
Love.
