Thank you God so much for this message...And that is what I think and feel too. It seems that there is so much love flowing through that love just shows up to love how and when and ever it wants to. And Love is so kind and gentle so that it never forces itself upon anyone or thing and yet it is always there.

And another thing...love does not ask for anything in return...It just loves to love. is that the coolest thing or what?. In the past I would think that just Holy people like saints and sages had this fountain of love in them and if i could only get close to them or even close to their pictures or take their words into my heart that that woulld fill me up with love and thereby take away this seemingly immense pain I was carrying around with me (it felt like my pain and other peoples pain too!) And...to some degree that did help, i.e.., being around Holy people or whatever...but for the most part it did not help too much cause I wouldd just focus on all the love this saint had...I would Idolize them and just which them would notice me and dispense some love to me and that that would make me feel better....cause in those days...just a few years ago...and really most of my life, I was so, so needy!

So now...somehow...things have really changed so that I don't idolize any other person anymore at all...not even my former teacher Emaho, not even the Dali Lama, not even Mother Theresa...not even Jesus....never again. I don't even idolize God...cause that just creates an imaginary gap between us...a vertical gap...and that is just plain crazy cause He lives in my heart and we are One. Never again will I idolize another for whatever reason and therefore demean myself.
Cause... I have a heart just like you...just like we all do... and in this heart lives love...enough love to fill the universe...We all have this love... we really do.

So I can also say that I do not need the love of another person...cause when your heart is full of love, you have...I have more than enough for myself and I no longer am scrounging for bits and pieces of it. Do you know what I mean?

And...this is a big one: I am not afraid to share with other people about this love...talk about it...for fear that other people might just think I was trying to be special or something like that. I truly do not care what others think anymore. Yet I know now...for certain....that everyone is equally special...especially in the eyes of God...how can God love one of hiis children more than another?

But by far the most important thing is just plain loving...and believe me love is not just plain...love is vibrant and strong and smart...and at the same time quite intimate and subtle.

And yet most people do not have a clue as to what love truly is. Actually, that's not true, people do have clues, they just don't notice them. The word love is the most misunderstood and misused word in the English language. That's a great title for a post...Clues of Love that are right in front of us...that we barely notice!

I felt like going on a ramble today! Thanks for coming with me.
your turn...What do you feel about love??? I would love to hear!
