Love Openly Visibly Expressed

 

Here is my first blog for 2017 and it is about love and connection.

 

Do you want to look back and regret the life you’ve had?   Yes, No, Maybe or do you feel you have a Choice????

 

Yes, you have a choice.   Although on my opinion, there will always be regrets of some sort as we are only human!!   And are you able to see that you are able to measure your success (not financially or being an ‘A’ lister…….or however you see yourself being a success) but by the love you give to others in whatever form you gave it –

 

from a smile and all the way to your expertise

from the love you gave to yourself

from the gratitude and blessings you gave to others and life itself

 

Loving yourself and coming from the inside out is what makes you a success and, of course, this can be financial and materially too.

 

Questions to ask yourself

 

Ask yourself when making what can seem like difficult decisions, acting or reacting in this priceless gift called life

 

‘Is my decision based on love or fear?

‘Will it enhance my life and others in it?’

 

You see, you have an opportunity every moment to choose love – to begin again.   As, when you are true to yourself, there is freedom to be and love yourself.   This then brings about more freedom from pain, fear and judgement.

 

It gives you the ability to recognise what is working and not working for you.   It gives you permission to work in your own way and at your own pace.   Oh yes, this can mean the possibility of feeling left out of the ‘in gang’ and yet, you will now be choosing who you want to be with, and what you want to focus on.

 

Connection and Thank You

 

I absolutely love this definition –

 

The feeling of connecting with others, nature and the cosmos is the psychological and emotional basis of mental health – insanity is the consequence of its loss  (John Gowen, former Cornell Univ. Professor)

 

In other words, as we lose connection with one another, we forgo our mental health and so that feeling of connection is sorely needed.

 

Remember then that when love is openly, visibly expressed, you are acknowledging someone’s existence when you say simply ‘thank you’ or smile at them.

 

My final words for the first blog of 2017 are –

 

Your soul is here to express, share and become love

 

A Happy, Healthy and Peaceful New Year to One and All.
