Chin up everyone! Things are getting better and better… if you just know where to look.
Love is the winner
We are blessed to be living in a huge social experiment of love versus hate. As we plow through each day this fall we’re getting a college level Political Science class that speaks to how we choose to live our lives day to day. It all boils down to our most basic understanding that:
- If you speak and spread hate; hate, anger and belligerence will follow.
- If you speak and spread love; a flowering of love will be the result.
There is only one difference. It’s easier to spread hate and anger; it works faster and is very loud. It’s so easy to see it, hear it, and be afraid of it. Love takes more effort and flowers slowly… the results aren’t immediately visible so it also takes more skill (and an open heart) to notice the results.
We are Love Leaders
Today is a good day to take a breath and give ourselves a nod for the love we spread. A personal thanks from me to every person on this email list! I know that each of you spread kindness and constantly move towards wisdom. I know that your families, friends and community are the recipients of your love.
Every breath we take, every move we make… is the step of a leader of love. If we have learned anything from our world, through the year of 2016, it’s that we have been proven to be absolutely necessary! The world needs each and every one of us. We need each other. Each smile we share, each hug we give, each word of praise or song we sing is creating a field of love that benefits everyone.
Keep up the good work!
Slow and Steady
If there is one thing I have learned with my illness this year, it’s that things take time. Every little step can be celebrated. The same is true in spreading love. I need to constantly remind myself of both.
(Just a quick FYI… Aesop was right: the tortoise can beat the hare. A new race was held in Thailand that you can see on this page.)
This is what we do when we dance together. This is what our community of healers is sharing. This is how we can live, move and breathe together.
Speaking of slow… we do have our next Live at Lava dance scheduled… many days from today. It will be next spring, on Earth Day — April 21, 22, 23, 2017. Put that on your calendar because I want everyone there for the biggest spring dance ever! (Yes, I’m going to be nice and healthy by then and need lots of hugs!)
Love you all
