The first rule of love is

Not to forget is exists

We try so hard to find it

We over look it and then laugh later about how it was there all the time

 

The second rule of love

Is to enjoy it

Love doesn’t get you down

It guides you

 

Love tells you who you are

When you choose someone to love

There is always always something in them that is in you

Or you couldn’t see it in them

 

So when you meet people and you are attracted to them

Know it is the similarities that you both have that you could see

And you can only love another as much as you love yourself

And you can only allow another to love you as much as you love you

 

So if your love doesn’t go too deep

Then don’t expect a relationship to

We expect so much from love

When we don’t know what to ask of it

As though it should know for us

And then lead us to bliss

 

Love is as active as you are

As slow as you are

As honest as you are

As forthright as you are

 

Love is always here

Available and ready

Until you tell it what to do,

Where to go

Who to share you with

 

So the next time you find yourself

All excited and happy

Don’t wait for love to tell you what to do

It is waiting for you

To steer it and bring you to who you are

 

 Love is so simple that it scares me to realize

How little we know of it after all of this time

I still wait for it to notice me

But really it was just how little we know of ourselves

To notice it’s waiting at the gate!

Wake Up Love

Posted in Uncategorized, spirituality, inspirational, love, self help, self love, truth, purity, emotional, balance, soul, feelings, self trust, higher self, honesty on Nov 26th, 2007 No Comments »

The Love we need now

Is love that is unspoken

We feel so energized when we are noticed

Not the attentions that you would think

Like the big awards or the new things we can have

It is in the conversations, where both people can look each other in the eye

It is in the meals shared, that were prepared together and eaten together

It is in the leftovers that you cannot wait to eat

Unopened Gifts

Posted in Uncategorized, spirituality, love, originist, self love, truth, honesty, self growth, compassion on Nov 19th, 2007 No Comments »

Finally a day to say
To remind ourselves
To remember
To speak out loud
~
How do I forgive myself
That is one unopened gift
How do I have compassion for myself
Yet another unopened gift
~
We speak in life, I have been able to forgive….another
I can now go on
Yet what is forgiveness?
How do you forgive yourself?
~
To forgive is to say I have not learned
Compassion will speak that you have learned
~
You see, it is not about forgiveness at all
Forgiveness says that you will overlook and get over something that hurt you
Whether you did it to yourself or to someone else
It is to say, that you have not learned the lesson so you will forgive the action
And then what?
Do you just go on forgiving forever and not going further as to why you are doing it or allowing someone else to do it to you?
~
Compassion to yourself, to others, to say, Yes, this happened, whatever it is, and we will learn from it
Compassion to understand the motives, the reasons and to say, I understand why you did this
Is there another way to get what you need
Without hurting yourself or others
~
In teaching children
There are three rules of discipline to follow
Don’t hurt yourself
Don’t hurt others
Don’t damage or destroy property
~
That is truth for all of us
If we don’t hurt ourselves, we actually do not have a need to hurt others
Damaging or destroying property is usually a byproduct of being hurt
~
When we forgive ourselves or others we are acknowledging we are hurt or hurt another
Compassion is the step after, we can’t just stop at forgiving
Compassion reminds us of the human part, the part where we gain self understanding and love
With words like
I know you didn’t mean that
I know you are hurt already
I can see now your intentions are good for me, or maybe they are not
Is this a safe place for me to grow
Or is this teaching me this is not the place for me to stay and learn of life
~
Forgiveness is like a power play or relief button
Compassion finds a soulution, and landing place, a mutual caring for what results in what has happened
Compassion is the way to get past anyone having to forgive anything
It is the place where we learn why, not just what
Where we see motivation rather than action only
Where we grow within ourselves, then someone else
~
Self accounting, self love, growth
It all starts in the solutions, not in the answers
Anyone can say yes or no
Yet the parts that say why are the growths
The parts that say why are the teachers
The moments of discovering are when you can go on and live past those moments
~
There is a vast difference between forgiveness and compassion
Compassion teaches love and forgiveness gives power to someone to grant it
Compassion soothes and grows and forgiveness is saying, I have forgiven you so many times, now what?
The crutches of living in doing and forgiving
Rather than speaking and learning
Breaks the cycle of not paying attention to yourself with excuses
And brings back the questions you had as a child
~
Why, is one of the greatest questions any child asks and doesn’t stop until they find out
~
It is their happiness so that they can go out and play
They already understand that full disclosure is their freedom
Quietly as we “look” so much smarter than them
Look again, there is still an unopened gift under your tree
It is called Self Love

Would You Know You?

Posted in spirituality, self help, self judgement, self love, balance, soul, feelings, self accountability, self trust, self knowledge on Nov 10th, 2007 No Comments »

Who would you be if no one you now know knew you?

What would you say about yourself?

What would you start with?

What would you say your hobby is?

What work you do?

How much you love it?

What it means to you, to your life to do what you do?

 

How could you see your intentions when you feel like you will die if things don’t go your way?

How flexible are you to change of heart, of mind, when you are challenged?

Do you know who you are with Money and without it?

Are you generous when you are happy?

Are you mean when you are mad?

Do you think about the other persons point of view when you are in a disagreement?

Do you go out of your way to say thank you when you are thankful?

Is expressing yourself in times of argument easy for you?

 

When someone speaks to you, and tells you an observation of you

Do you get defensive or do you consider that they spoke this to you for good reason?

When you speak to someone, do you consider how you would respond to be spoken to in the same way?

 

These are a lot of questions

Questions of self definition

Of who you are inside and what it looks like on the outside

People are not blind, and never are we within ourselves

 

Sometimes it is just a matter of answering your own questions, that reminds you of who you are

Where you are when it comes to dealing with yourself, your life, and if you are just passing time

Or using time to grow your soul, in your truth, without trying to be something you are not yet ready to be

Or standing still too long before you act and then feeling like you can not catch up

Define yourself and you will see better what you are looking for

Wanting that comes from heart, rather than all the other reasons that leave us feeling unfulfilled

 

Trust in your ability to answer such questions

And Trust the rest will come as you go along

There is not ever only one answer

Yet only one answer will lead you to the rest

 

Who would you be if no one you now know knew you?

Tell yourself out loud as though you were speaking to another

Hear your words and find your truth in them

It is already there, waiting for you to notice

It is simply time to take on more of you

We always know when

It is just that we can’t start anything

Without actually starting

Start with the questions and your mind will do the rest

All you need to do is plant the seed

Imagine meeting you

Would you know you?

The Music Of Love

Posted in spirituality, inspirational, love, relationships, originist, self love, selflessness, truth, purity, emotional, balance, soul, feelings, purpose, self trust, higher self, marriage on Nov 5th, 2007 No Comments »

One day we wake up singing

A song to a happy tune

Without a prompt or a reason

Without music or noise

Only the excitement of seeing you

 

Today we are getting married

Saying Yes to each other

without further ado

 

Love is the trail we followed

Learned each other in safety and grew

Let our ugly find itself, showed it to you

You said, Hey that’s OK

I am still here for you

 

I learned me through you

You told me the truth

You speak to me, it is not only you

It is you and me, and we are two

 

There is strength in numbers

When the two are in truth

Someone to say to you

this works for me too

 

Love is not a show

or does it come with a map

Love’s design is to teach us

And build life without holes, without traps

 

It is a place of safety

To speak that I am still OK

Even when I don’t feel like it

Even when I am too tired to see my way

 

One of us is always leading

Learned partnership that way

Each day is an open conversation

Of all we can share and build, a story page by page

 

Nothing comes all at once

It would leave us dry and bored

Love comes in surprises

Of all we thought it could not be

Love is the surprise of our souls

When it show me, me
