I have this formula for bringing forth love it is likened to a three-legged stool, each leg representing a true connection, 1, to self, 2 to other, and 3 to the all, divine, God etc. and the seat being Love.

I became so aware of how important it is to be able to adapt during these last power outages.  There we were in the dark, headlamps affixed to our foreheads, a battery-operated lantern providing enough light to keep walk-in areas illuminated and battery packs keeping our phones charged.  All this we learned from previous outages and now were able to create a little more comfortable environment as a result.

It’s February, the month devoted to LOVE. . .everywhere you go you’ll see hearts, candy, flowers, buy something for a loved one etc. In our language, we have only one word for all the kinds of love there are.

A new year is upon us: Time to reflect. Clean house of outdated ideas and images that hold us back from being the incredible beings we are capable of, and choose to find ways to affirm who we truly are physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.

No matter what I receive, the giver of the gift is more precious than the gift itself. The smile on their face as my eyes alight on their bestowal is the true gift and I realize that material gifts—as fun and ever-lovely, beautiful, or even costly they may be—cannot hold a candle (no pun intended) to the love I receive from the giver.

In this game of life, when I lose, I am grateful for the realization that I have a lot more to learn, and when I win I am grateful to realize that I have a lot more to learn.

So the question is how do we nurture ourselves; our bodies, minds, and spirit?

“That man is so funny” I said to myself with a chuckle. “Are you serious? Haha!” Then I listened to the phone calls. . .

We feel safe and healthy when the world we visit is clean. No detritus on the roads and lawns, clean bathrooms, pool area, trails easy to access with no heavy twigs, branches or overgrown greenery to impede our way and cause injury. Plants, art work, places to sit and hang out by the pool make us feel comfortable and therefore safe.
