<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: 14.0pt;">Love All Around You</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">People
come and go. We move away, move-in next door, we die and we live. Each morning
we awake to a brand new day where we are free to reinvent our lives in whatever fashion we choose. We are unique creations of a living God, and
whether we realize it or not, as part of that creation, we contribute to each others
experiences and growth through our actions and responses. Most of the time, and
unbeknownst to us, we offer gifts in lifelong lessons that when learned and put
into practice enhance our beings.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">I
knew a man who taught me something about that <i>thing </i>we call love. That man was my brother. Every time he left a
crowd, a party or a meeting, he would sign off with a short wave and say, <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Love all around you!</i> Love all around you
seemed a simple good-bye, but since his passing, I have made his words some of
my contemplations. As it has turns-out, “Love all around you,” has become a
most precious gift to me; a phrase my brother made common during his physical
presence, and one that I now embrace in mine.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Think
about it … <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Love</i> is energy. <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">All</i> encompasses everything and everyone.
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Around</i> is everywhere. <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">You</i> are an amazing element of It. Love
all around you.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Love
is the essence of all that is good. Every moment we feel happiness, comfort;
every time we pray, give, laugh; or smile, exercise, recognize beauty, breathe
deep, stand in the wind, cook, read something scrumptious; every time we hear a
pleasing song, an exquisite voice; or tie our shoes, cuddle with a cat, a
dog, watch ocean waves crash against the sand, eat chocolate; or take the
advice of a parent; or learn from a child, love is cultivated. Love is
expressed. Love <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">is</i> all around us.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Love
is the strength behind forgiveness and therefore the most powerful of all
emotions. (Without love, is it possible to forgive?) When we forgive ourselves, anyone, our
sense of honor increases, our integrity grows; we become better people––more loving people. Forgiveness begets love for self and love for those we need
to forgive. When we love, we humanize that person or group who offended us.
With love, anger can <i>only</i> cease to exist.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Love
means having faith. Faith is the ability to practice the art of having
patience; of being persistent. When we are patient, our practice in faith
increases. We discover, understand and accept truth. We are able to wait for the
inevitable to manifest, to be; and we know that whatever it will bring, it will
be good.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Love
is Universal. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Love is God. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Love is all around you.</span></div>

Do you immediately hold a vision of someone you know or know of? I do. I think of Caroline Ingalls, the character played by Karen Grassel on "Little House on the Prarie." Caroline was soft spoken, yet strong and witty. She was willing and ready to assist her family, neighbors, and community whenever she could, and usually, with little or no thanks. </i></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #351c75;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #351c75;"><span style="font-size: small;"><i>Kind people are genuine and carry an aura of soft light and laughter where ever they are. A kind person finds helping others a form of simplicity. Doing a good deed just seems natural to them. </i></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #351c75;"><span style="font-size: small;"><i><br /></i></span></span>
<span style="color: #351c75;"><span style="font-size: small;"><i>Okay. I'll admit it. Kindness is one of those skills that with conscious practice, I learned. At first it was difficult. I felt fake when I was being kind, but with practice and an undisputable desire to be a nice person ninety-two percent of the time, eventually, a practice (yes. I keep trying...) of kindness has become a part of who I am. </i></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #351c75;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #351c75;"><span style="font-size: small;"><i>I want to respect and treat all people with consideration – especially while on the freeway. We are after all, one. </i></span></span>Robinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06346765476556078197noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6684263504923228484.post-36626324748169762872013-09-14T09:33:00.000-07:002013-09-14T09:33:31.649-07:00<span style="color: #0b5394; font-size: large;"><i>Potential</i></span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #0b5394;"><span style="font-size: small;"><i>We all have it. In fact, whatever we want, whatever we think about is a possibility that if acted upon with positive diligence, can come into fruition. Take a moment - a quiet moment and look around you. Every invention whether it be a toaster, a car, a CD player, or the patten embossed on a teacup was once a thought. </i></span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #0b5394;"><span style="font-size: small;"><i>With right focus and action, we can create anything. Think about it... We are an amazing people, who live on this amazing Earth, where everything that we need and want is a gift to us if only we have enough faith in our potential to make it happen.</i></span></span><br />

<span style="color: #0b5394;"><span style="font-size: small;"><i>Henry Ford once said, "If you think you can or if you think you can't, you are right."</i></span></span>Robinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06346765476556078197noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6684263504923228484.post-81586945545712320072013-09-02T16:49:00.001-07:002013-09-02T16:49:31.432-07:00GratitudeIt's about the simplest of things: the golden-pink glow of the sunrise; the crisp morning air that changes with each tic and turn of our Earth; the roadrunner with only one talon that with the utmost confidence hops up onto the back of the opposite chair and chirps for a sample of my cinnamon toast. <br />
<br />
The opportunity to practice gratitude is a privilege, but one must develop the knowingness to see those moments that greet us with such an occasion. Often those moments are difficult. Emotions may be tested, and so it seems that we are being challenged, and thus, turmoil threatens to ensue.<br />
<br />
Advice. Take it or not: Stand back. Don't take what is presented to you as an attack on your person. Breathe.<br />
<br />
It's about the simplest of things: the sinking sun below a muted blue sky; the stars as they begin to break through the exaggerated atmosphere; the sound of your neighbors laugh from over the fence; your child's last words before sleep.
