Life can be such a hustle-bustle sometimes! As a ‘woman of years in the “Middle” of my life’, I keep trying to see the beauty, the good, the remarkable, the peaceful, the joyful side of life…it’s what keeps me keeping on! I’m a proponent of The Law of Attraction, and I make conscious effort to keep my innermost Self connected to Source Energy. I believe the energy that comes from me is exactly the energy which will be returned to me in life experience.
On any given day, I awaken to the NOW, and usually, the day unfolds happily to moments of fruitful labor around my house, or from other intentional activities. I entertain light-hearted loving thoughts. I forget that my love to others is the greatest gift I can give. The more unconditional it is, the more powerful it is as it leaves me and finds its way to someone else. It’s not even a deliberate action by me…it is by nature an extension of me. I’m not even aware of the many different displays that my love shows. It just happens when it happens and all is well, until there’s a disruption…a backlash…a crashing sound to my beingness that hurts! Oh, does it hurt! Of course, I dig deep into my thoughts wondering how this can happen when essentially I know my intentions are good.
Love displays differently…from a smile, to any number of simple kind actions – even a spontaneous gift. When we display our love to our dearest ones, it is that deep-love connection that kindles our feelings in warm and sincere ways, and there’s no telling how it manifests its goodness. How, then, can such a selfless action result in hurt?
I’ve come to now believe when I give love it is the giving of Essential Self and there can be no room for hurt or disappointment. It is when I make it personal, I feel hurt. But love isn’t personal…it just IS. It is our natural, essential state of being. Said a different way: a person needs money, and I ask “how much do you need?” The person answers “twenty-five dollars will do”, and I respond, “take fifty, just in case.” All in good will. All from the heart. All in the name of love. I have it to give. If it is paid back, this is good. If it is not, it is still good.
When a person means well, and in good heart acts accordingly, this intention is love. What the recipient does with a loving gift need not concern the giver. ~Gaya
Blessed Be. To All Be Blessed.
