Love

Love is a gift.
Love is the ultimate gift.
It encompasses and envelops. It brings with it peace and joy, hope and laughter. It brings us the promise of brighter suns. Love, in its infinite magnitude, can also bring us to the depths of our darkest hollows emerging us into our own chasms of fear and despair, heart break and sorrow, anger and frustration.
Love is not only what sets forth our joy, freedom, peace and wonder, it is also what lies behind self loathing, oppression, anger.

Love is the field within the field.

For Love is infinite in all directions.

It will send us to this relentless spiral down to the nothingness. We will grieve and despair. This of course is not the end, for even the ocean never ceases to have waves, nor do the waves hang forever on the shore. They always come home to the embrace of the their creator. Love doesn't so much 'enter' us as it is set forth From us. When we open the gate, when we acknowledge what is ALWAYS present, we allow what has always been there to fly! It enables us to see a place beyond ourselves. And we grieve, and get angry and cry for we know, we now 'see' that life, as we know it, will not be the same.The shallow wants and searches will no longer provide us the same incomplete and unsustainable brief level of masked happiness. Some of us will fight for a foothold somewhere, anywhere. Grasping to the slick walls of memories past and habits and routines that leave us feeling even more like a leaf blowing aimless, bound to the grasp of the wind. As always, the light hidden behind the clouds, will begin to shine. We begin to understand and embrace the freedom. The True Freedom. We become lighter and Love is set forth anew from us. Like a parasol seed of a dandelion, seemingly at the mercy of the summer breeze, we float. We float along with tides of change, peaceful and full of promise. Settling roots only when the Earth has called for us. For Love knows when we are ready and will set forth the wind to settle us in our existing field of peace. Yes the most important element of Love is that which exists within us. Open the door and Love will liberate us from our self induced depths and rejoin and recognize us home.

One Earth.
