Feeling the call to write about love today because there is so much power in love!!! I believe we are capable of harnessing that power, first inside of ourselves - then extending it out to the world . . . where it can shift what is happening around us. Is anyone out there game to join in?
With all of my heart, I truly believe that . . . Love can heal! Love can support! Love can change the structure of our water! Love can change our body chemistry and mood! Love can positively impact the choices we make! Love can have a wonderful effect on how we treat those around us! There is no end to what love can do. Just think about the positive impact we could experience if we filled our own cups so full with love that it spills out into the world around us.
If you're willing, will you stop for a moment right now and ask yourself, "What do I love?" and write down everything that comes to mind? It doesn't matter if you already know what you'd write - write it down anyway. :-) Let it boost you. Let it lift your spirits. Maybe it will help shift your mind away from what is weighing heavy on you right now. Maybe it will help you breathe more deeply.
At the top of my list are: Animals, music, sunsets, water (beaches and lakes), flowers and trees. When I want to tap into the power of love, all I have to do is think about this list. I can look at pictures of these things or listen to song lyrics that "take me there" . . . Often times this can be my saving grace, the thing that will give me the strength I need to keep moving forward on a tough day.
And it is such an easy thing to do.
Below I am sharing some of my favorite song lyrics about LOVE as well as some pictures to go along with my list. I hope that maybe they will inspire you to create your own list and start tapping into your own vibration of love. My wish is that having your own list will assist you in a noticeable positive shift of your own.
As my very first favorite rock star (and teen crush) Eddie Money sang in the song Jealousys:
Life on earth,
Take it for what it's worth,
Save the Universe,
Love One Another!
And as Todd Rundgren wrote:
And when you feel afraid, love one another
When you've lost your way, love one another
When you're all alone, love one another
When you're far from home, love one another
When you're down and out, love one another
All your hope's run out, love one another
When you need a friend, love one another
When you're near the end, love
We got to love, we got to love one another Light of the world, you got to shine on me
Love is the answer
Shine on us all (know that love can save the day)
Set us free
Love is the answer
(Just give it, just one more chance)
And as the Bellamy Brothers sang:
Just let your love flow like a mountain stream
And let your love grow with the smallest of dreams
And let your love show
And you'll know what I mean, it's the season Let your love fly like a bird on the wing
And let your love bind you to all living things
And let your love shine
And you'll know what I mean, that's the reason
And as The Youngbloods sang:
If you hear the song I sing
You will understand, listen
You hold the key to love and fear
All in your trembling hand Just one key unlocks them both
It's there at your command
Come on, people now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another right now
And as The O'Jays sang:
People all over the world, join hands.
Start a love train, love train
People all over the world, join hands
Start a love train, love train
The next stop that we make will be EnglandTell all the folks in Russia and China too
Don't you know that it's time to get on board
And let this train keep on riding, riding on through
People all over the world (you don't need no money) join hands
Start a love train, love train (don't need no ticket, come on)
People all over the world (join in, ride this train)
Start a love train, love train
All of your brothers over in Africa
Tell all the folks in Egypt and Israel too
Please don't miss this train at the station
'Cause if you miss it, I feel sorry, sorry for you
People all over the world, join hands
Start a love train, a love train
Ride, let it ride
People, ain't no war
People all over the world (on this train)
Join hands (ride the train)
Start a love train
