Love has no agenda …

Sunday’s walk along the water … girl sees bars and can’t help herself.

Don’t get scared and “help” yourself too much. … More

When we align with authentic love, our true self, everything else is a byproduct of that. Love IS everything good.

But we can forget the truth when money, or pretty, or sex, or “more” lures us.

Coming home to love IS the fairytale! … More

I finally picked HIM up, Richard Quatrone … the only way I could, or at least the only way he’d let me. He makes it look easy, but he does weigh twice as much as I do.… More

We want to be loved to the core for who we are, not what we look like, or how much money we have, or what we can do for somebody. We want a partner to tune into who we are on the inside, as well as on the outside.

But that can’t happen as long as we guarded. We have to give up some control, we have to yield, we have to be vulnerable to get the love we want.

Life without that belief is empty, at least emptier than I want my life to be. You could argue (and I have) that I believe because I want to, because I can’t bear the thought of an empty or accidental existence. But I have evidence. It is both everywhere and nowhere, tangible and intangible.

Einstein said, “There are two ways to live your life — one is as though nothing is a miracle, the other is as though everything is a miracle.”

This morning as I jogged, I got caught in the rain … and loved it! I raised my arms in surrender to the heavens; and rather than feeling like a prisoner, I felt like a freed bird!
The forces of nature are the forces of God. Dare to run with them. Dance with them. Sing with them. Cry with them. Be still with them. And they will make a believer of you!… More
