Everything We Are
Love is the story we are told before arriving here. Even before we understand the words, we have the knowledge of love. Before we can label it, we want it, we give it, we feel it, we mean it.
We love how love feels. It empowers us. Ignites us. Inspires us to do great things. Everything it is, we are. Everything. We are so much more than we can imagine and when we lose our way, we lose our knowledge of love - but it’s only temporary.
Like any good guide, love can lead us back to it. We are not tied to our troubles, worries, vices and fear. It’s all temporary. Whatever we did yesterday to get to today may not ever be changed, but we can change the pattern of our decisions by thinking of the outcome before we make them.
The decisions we make involve those people we love. It will either make them happy for us or disappointed. While we ultimately make our own choice, it is also a group decision because of the people in which we are intertwined.
Everything we do comes back to love; an abundance of it or a lack of it. If we have an abundance of love, our road gets wider and further. If we have a lack of it, the road narrows.
It’s not easy to find our way back. It’s dark, perilous, and uncertain, but the only way to do it is to rely on the people who are lined on the side road ready to assist.
They want to help you back to love. It’s not easy for them to watch you stumble and fall. They feel helpless, frustrated, sad and it hurts them to keep watching you fall. It may even hurt them more than it hurts you.
To everyone out there suffering in silence, you are not alone, don’t cut off your heritage to love. Let it makes it way back into your heart. One of the hardest things is to ask for help, but it’s not as hard as suffering alone. Whatever you’re going through can be lifted with love.
It’s not too late to get back to love and unburden your life. Do we suffer the pains that enslave our spirit or gracefully traverse through the treacherous experiences? We have a choice to love ourselves. It’s the amount of experiences -- good or bad -- that fossilize our relationship with our inner most being.
What are you doing to add to your surplus of love?

I do not think about adding to my surplus of love. I only do better to loving everyone around each time, and do worse in hating. That alone, without anyone showing any realization about it, feels more than enough.
But yes, it is even more wonderful when they at least smile back or saying thank you :)
Thanks, Alexys :)
So true, SMW. Faith, Hope and Love, all very powerful, but Love is the greater of them. This year I'm looking deeper into all the choices I make, and consciously asking myself, am I doing this in the spirit of love, especially things I do to myself or allow to happen in my personal life.
Blessings to you this year and all years!
Very well written. Love is home and we are love!
I particularly like this post. You have said it all. :)
Hi Rizal,
I agree. A smile can electrify us. We can't go wrong with love. :D
Hi Cordie,
That's a really good thing to consider decisions carefully before taking the plunge. Just do them with love and all will be well.
Happy Blessings to you to my friend. May it find you wrapped in love.
Hi Mark,
Yes, we are home in love and love is home in us. Thanks.
Hi Uber,
Thanks. This topic is endless.
Another view is that you do not "make" anyone feel anything. You only ever choose how to react emotionally or respond differently to perceptions in the external world. You only ever choose to take responsibility for how you feel or not. You do not control how others think or feel.
Hi Liara,
Choice is a beautiful thing.
