Hello,
And welcome to this simple reflection about love.
My name is Brittany,
And these words are here to help you on your own journey of beautifully awakening.
All we can do is love each other,
To choose love over fear,
Kindness over hate,
Compassion over accusation.
We might not agree with each other all of the time.
We might want to shout our truth and sing our desires louder than others,
And cover our ears to the opinions that don't match our own.
But at what cost?
Calling each other names and holding each other back?
Turning away from things because we don't like them and hindering our own personal growth?
We may carry wounds from others that run so deep that love doesn't even seem possible.
But the only way through the hurt,
The pain,
The suffering,
Is remembering that love exists within all of us.
And it's there for us if we decide to turn to it.
Love is a choice.
It's a choice to bridge the gap,
To listen to one another,
To truly listen from our hearts.
Love helps us be more in tune with the truth.
What's behind the harsh words we speak?
Fear drives us to hate,
To divide,
To separate.
Only love can invite us to heal,
Forgive,
And see the beauty in our differences.
Shaking our heads at one another,
Pulling away because we don't think the same,
Look the same,
Act the same,
Discrediting others for seeing the world through a different lens?
That won't mend our broken hearts.
That will continue the cycle that our hearts are crying out to be healed from.
Our hearts need a new pattern.
Our spirits need a new way to live this life so we can wake up each day and make the best of it.
It's our choice.
Our responsibility.
Each and every one of us.
Because love isn't just all we need.
When it comes down to it,
The love in our hearts,
The unconditional love in our hearts,
Is all we really have.
So send love to one another.
To every single person that crosses your path,
Even if it bruises the ego to do so.
Be kind.
Be willing to listen and see and take in what others are sharing.
Listen to others' truths.
Honor other people's beliefs and opinions,
Even if they are not your own.
Because hate won't stop others from hating.
Fear won't ease the worries in our hearts and minds.
Love is the only way we can move toward a more harmonious way of life.
Love is our guiding light.
Our only true superpower.
And love will change the world in beautiful ways.
Use your energy for good.
Use your words for connection and closeness.
Use your actions for peace.
And let love lead the way.
Namaste.
