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!

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

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

When you walk past the sink, and it is clean
Are you the person who drops the spoon in
Or are you the one that walks by and cleans it
Do you only wash it if someone else is there
or do you leave it for someone else to take on your work
~
Are we really getting away with anything when we try not to do something
We try so hard to get out of this, get out of that
~
It is the truth as it is
You either do or you don’t
Some wait until the sink is full
And others wash and dry as they go
Some keep the Oh I have to do this, to do that, before I can relax
When cleaning up as you go along
Cleans up your mind as you think along, speak to another, or even watch a program on TV
~
That spoon really tells its own story
Do you hold onto your stuff
Do you let it go
Do you take things on right off
Or do you wait until you have piled up so much stuff inside
And you keep waiting for the day to clean it all up at once
~
Do you just eat your best everyday
Or are you the one who will diet tomorrow and eat everything in sight today?
Are you a planner or does everything all of a sudden happen to you?
~
Each of these types of people, they are all of us
Trying to say one thing when we are another is our biggest bluff
And the blaming of others, for who we are, has also been the bigger bluff
~
Once you clean up as you go along
You are just telling yourself the truth as you live your life
and those who threw it in and walk right by it
Are the pilers of everything else
They will not tell you first off what they actually mean
And they will only come clean when they are caught
And maybe not even then
~
Start washing the spoon in the clean sink
And you will find, you start finishing all the little things that start to take on weight much sooner
When you walk by, stop yourself and remind yourself it is your job too
No using others for you
and you will stop running from tasks and either decide to do them or not
~
Honesty isn’t so far away
It is as simple as a dirty spoon, you either clean it or you don’t
~
Love isn’t so far away
You either share it or you don’t
~
Truth is always around
And Purity is the cleanliness of your soul
~
Clean the spoon, Clear your mind, and go on to the next thing
Clutter is man made, not a natural part of us
Clean purifies as you cleanse
Cleansing is the weightlessness of our days, our thoughts, and how we are with others
Anything else is the delaying of our self love, until we finish all our tasks that we walk by

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

 

The more I can see of me

The more I find in you

The treasures of us as people

And adding the love in there too

Thank you for saying

when you do this it hurts me

It made me see you

and you taught me to care

As you show me how you care for you

I have learned to care for me

 

I find that the more I learn

I more I understand you

The greater my challenges

that eliminate the feelings of something I can not say

 

You opened the door of my soul

With your openness to me

You teach me to be

Without trying to be better than me

 

I realize there is nothing you could want

Other than to tell me the truth

I realize there is nothing I can give

Other than my purity to you

 

Love is invisible

Yet it is felt in its strength

It is the bond we can not see

Yet the bond of everyday

Love is not a person, a place or a thing

Love is my emotion, that I bring to each day

Love is my compass of where I go, and where I stay

Love is the open ended answer

 

As many questions as it presents

It is those very questions

Whose answers are fought for

And learned of

That teaches my soul

Its one main purpose

To love, honor, and live

In today, in the present

 

I stand before myself in completeness

As I see it in you

No fear in growing further

No lines drawn in the sand

No more saying what if….

It is here that I stand

I stand for us

The “us” we have become

The world that we built

With those that we love

The house that we fill

With our everyday of thoughts

The home that we carry

Everywhere we go

 

Love is not physical

You have taught me

Thank you, my love

My love’s freedom

That I have come to see

Thank you, my love

We are an “us”

And still a “you” and a “me”

What does it look like when we have hope

We walk faster

We talk more

We involve others

We try new things

We wear different colors

And we insist on trying until we succeed

 

We sing to songs

We listen to others

It is not so important that we are “right”

 

We need less sleep

We don’t over eat

We exercise

And we say good morning

 

We listen to “happy” music

We dance while we are walking

We see someone who is having a bad day and we say we are sorry

We help someone who needs it

And we accept help when we need it

 

Hope is the promise of our souls capacity

Hope is the reason we remember why we are alive

Hope is the person who reminds us

That Hope is always nearby

 

Hope reminds us that love is available

As hope is the purpose of our actions

Whatever it is that we hope for,

We are in hope when we feel promise

Promise of ourselves in our highest honor

Honor of actions and what they may mean

 

Hope is the rainbow after the rain

The cool drink on a hot day

The right words as you needed them

The smell of something baking while you are asleep

The bath where you actually sit in the water

The moment you walk by someone you haven’t seen in years

The check that comes in the mail you didn’t expect it

The willingness to understand if something doesn’t work out

 

Hope is the basis, the reason

That we have an incentive to grow on

To say I’ll try

To change directions

And to know ourselves well enough to say no when we are stretching ourselves too thin

Hope is not being scared when the check is not in the mail

Someone we thought was right for us isn’t and we understand why

And the love of self enough to know all of these things are simply a part of life

 

Hope is alive as we are alive

Hope is the possibilities of our hearts

Given a forum to test, push and pull the best of ourselves

And find the depth in which we can be

Your higher self is talking
And you speak to it that it is not possible
That you are not good enough or strong enough to be that person
~
Your higher self tells you you are that person
And you should at the very least try
That you have nothing to lose
That even an embarrassing moment is a story of truth to speak about in love
~
Your higher self is you without boundaries and limits
That only you can put in and only you can release
Your higher self is your capability
Your ability
Neither of which know the word NO
~
Imagine if the word NO did not exist
Boy would the freedom of our souls be happy!
There would be no answer that can not be had
There would be a way to find to do almost anything you thought of
~
Capability just means to know
Ability means to try
To know and To try
To see if it is yours to grow more with
Or to let it take you to something else
~
Your higher self is your purpose
Not broken down into smaller parts,
It is the sum of the smaller parts that build you up to it
~
It is a higher love to see your higher self
And a soul that says I will because I can and I can because I will
Anything less than that is because you really don’t want it yet
~
I say yet, because the day will come to you
That you can see yourself do it
And it will find a path, an avenue or a bridge
To take you there

We are trying to tell the world that our body is our soul
We found ways to fill our bodies
Change our bodies
Keep our bodies from aging
Dressing younger or older depending on what we are trying to accomplish
~
And then if someone is disabled we think they are less or need more help than us
And if they are sick we get scared because it could be us
And if they are dressed ‘better’ than us we actually think they are ’smarter’ than us
And a bigger house only reminds us that we are not as ’successful’
~
Yet, I am writing this and if you didn’t know me, you wouldn’t know anything about me
All you would hear are my words,
You would feel my feelings for a moment of your life
You would share the love I feel in writing this, as I am writing it
~
Love doesn’t look like anyone
Love isn’t meant only for some
Love isn’t meant to be looked for
Or “learned” how to be
Love is open and free
Love doesn’t have eyes or ears
Love only has feelings and instinct
Love protects all that comes our way
When we know enough about its freedom to let it
~
I found by writing that my soul is not my body
My heart is my soul
My body is just the way I get around
And everyone else too
~
Your body is the car of your soul
It takes your intentions, your thoughts, and it drives them into action
Your body will do anything your soul will ask of it
But your soul can not do anything your body asks of it
~
I remember most, that I always remember, what it felt like when I left someone
More than what we looked like or where we were
We leave with the emotions
That is why at times when we are not dressed and our guard is down,
Those days, they seem to be the best days we have
We are exempt from the race to be anything
Did you notice you are least shy when you are most open?
~
We can take a lesson from those of us whose bodies can not do what we do,
And still they are happy
Their secret is the truth of their soul’s exposed
And we too, can learn
To let the body be a part of us and include our soul
It does not have to be one or the other, we simply can understand our purpose better
When we let the truth of us show itself, rather than expecting our love from the outside in
~
No one can ever walk away from an open heart
Truth is a magnet for its strength
And truth wears no masks!

~
It doesn’t take explanation to do what is right
To do what makes things better
To say what needs to be said
~
Either side of the coin
When things are tough, tell the truth
When things are not, tell the truth
There is no sense in creating stories to make things seem more exciting
The excitement is in how much you love it, telling it that way
And giving someone else a chance to live it with you too
~
We always think everything has to be bigger, better or worth hearing
That we have to have a punchline or a reason for saying something
~
It is so much simpler than that
Tell the truth from your heart
And your heart will do the rest
~
When there is a moment where telling the truth
Is something you do not want to do
It has nothing to do with the other person at all
~
Ask yourself, why is it that you feel like you can not?
Why is your safety an issue?
Is your self esteem unable to accommodate truth?
Is lying something you want to carry around?
Do you want to create distance between you and the other person?
Do you not have respect for yourself enough to simply speak and grow on?
Do you prefer the dramas of lying that cause you to not trust others?
~
Most who do not tell the truth
Think others are lying
Are the ones who accuse others of doing things, being things they are not
Do not like to discuss details
Nor do they enjoy the fruits of self accountability
~
They are the ones who fear their positions
Their posts in life
That their charminess will wear out
That their cover will be blown
That maybe they are a fraud altogether
~
They will claim to have everything under control,
As if they had to
They will tell you how great they are
As if you needed to hear that
~
When someone speaks with their heart
they even allow for those who don’t
Time to speak, and hear themselves talk
Simply because they already believe they will speak from the heart
And when they find out that is not what is happening
They start feeling used, without words or actions yet
~
As time passes and you are in a relationship
You start to realize that the other person doesn’t pay attention to you the way you do to them
That when THEY are happy you are OK, when THEY are NOT, you are in Trouble
The balance shifts to their moods and the one with heart accommodating the one who speaks in exaggerations of truth and you are left realizing that maybe you have chosen a person who lives in the illusions of their truth and it all is not so real
~
Getting to know another person is for these reasons alone
Is this a person you can depend on
Does this person bring you peace and joy
Warmth or comfort
Or are you more fractured with them and more whole without them
~
A job, a friend, a partner, a spouse
All the souls who find their way to us
Teach us who we are by what we do not accept from them
They Hone us into speaking up
Fighting for our own souls
Making our way without questions as to what is right or wrong,
however, what we are RIPE enough to learn
~
We can only learn what we are ready for
And others may serve as a catalyst for such learning’s
Or there may be a soul we are meant to share much more of ourselves with and life with
~
We try to make everything “forever”
yet there is no time
There is a bigger picture
And some things are meant to teach us for a moment
And others are meant to carry us for a lifetime
~
Accept life for the challenges it gives you
And you will see that life will always have a challenge for you
It will always always remain and be
Your level of understanding
And your willingness to learn that will carry you
Once you can see that
The turmoil’s of what to do, how to be, what to say, and what not to say are already answered
~
Our energy proceeds us
And we speak without speaking words
Trust in the bigger picture of our purpose can carry you through the moments of indecision
Clairty of your purpose
Knowledge of your soul
Understanding that you are not meant to be everywhere at once
Gives you the basis and understanding that you WANT to be where you at least choose to be
And the places you choose to be will allow you to experience them whole

Walk away from those who let you down
Walk away from those who do not care that they hurt your feelings

Walk away from those who set you up
From those you know will talk about you if you mess up
~
Learn to walk away, rather than prove anyone wrong
It only takes your energy into the black hole they have created for you to fall within
~
You are allowed to say NO
You are allowed to find Love
You are allowed to find peace
You are entitled to enjoy your time
~
We forget that we can say NO
To what hurts our energy and takes away our speed
That which reminds us of failure rather than our hearts success
We are all as successful as we see ourselves
We are all as weak as we believe others will speak of us
~
We must remember that those that talk about us
are only doing so from their own weakness and their desire to weaken others with them
So that they will not be alone in the below the radar behaviors they take on
To caste worry, fear and doubt to anothers soul
~
We must take part in our hearts desire to take care of ourselves
By allowing what we love to enter our thoughts rather than just the one person who keeps finding a way to challenge it
Your challenge is to challenge that energy and realize that anyone who can take you away from you, you need to take yourself away from
~
You can attempt, however learn from your attempts
And learn that you can run, not walk away, when you begin to understand you are depleting rather than building
That you are not of true benefit to this soul, nor are they to you
That you can learn from each other at a distance
Rather than the closeness that has come to rob you both of yourselves
~
Love gives
When giving is not present neither is love
Choose Love
And Love will find a way for you
Love is the can opener of every can you have stored in your cabinet
Some have been there for years
Go back and let them open and those that have expired
Accept that they have and go on
That is one of the paths of self love that opens you up to less storage and greater freedom of your soul
Choose your Soul
And there you will find your true movement
Your content
And your willingness to go forward
