From Love Actions Unfold - Jan 20

As Liz continues to sit with the phrase “making a stand for love,” she realises it is a powerful place from which to live. In her daily Five Minutes in Nature reflections, she contemplates how actions naturally unfold when she stands in love. And she invites you to consider: what does it mean for you to make a stand for love?

As Brandy noted in an earlier post, I, too, was thinking about the Buddhist monks on their Walk for Peace across 2300 miles of the US. Making a stand for love, to me is living in accord with their simple but profound affirmation, “Today is going to be my peaceful day.” Making a stand for love - seeing with eyes of kindness and compassion and choosing words and actions from that place in any moment - is what will bring peace to ourselves, our families and our community. Thank you, Liz, for sharing your insights through your daily walks and meditations - they are thought provoking and inspiring for me.

Making a stand for love to me is the same as "be kind, always". Trying to do the best you can in each given moment with the tools you've been dealt. Love both for yourself and for others.

I try to always be in a place of love, to have presence in love. To radiate love. And that manifests as acts of kindness. Including just listening without action. I’m still practicing! 💜

From my perspective what you put out, here on IT is also ‘making a stand for love’. The time I spend sitting here each morning allows me the space and reminds me of what is true, so I am able to ‘make a stand for love’ / interact in my sphere from a place of truth.
So thank you Liz. 😊

Today it means keeping moving and nit giving up when my body is not feeling great! I recognise my Dad's giving up tendance when faced with a physical challenge and for me making a stand for love is not falling into the belief that I might be the same!!
