F
ebruary is a special month – the month of Love. It has always been
a favorite time of year for me. This year, I challenge you to view this
month as an opportunity not only to love others, but to love yourself.
A healthier, happier and self-loving you will unveil the magic, freedom and
power of becoming love in action.
So how do you grasp love? Funny you should ask... I think you can't.
"Love is the ultimate outlaw. It just won't adhere to any rules. The most
any of us can do is sign on as its accomplice." – Tom Watson. The only
requirement of love is your willingness to accept it.
Thinking with love = setting you free! "If you feel free, you're able to
accomplish whatever goals you set your mind to," says Adriana Cascata,
author of Think with Love. "People think there are different ways to live
and enjoy life, but the only way to be truly happy is through love."
What is love? Love is an action. Love is an energy that can be felt but
not seen. It is a bridge that connects you with others and, ultimately–
conquers all. It is only through the acceptance of love that wholeness of
mind, body and soul is ever achieved.
How can you show some love today? Just being there can be what
matters most. Making amends and letting go of past hurts is a first step in
re-building broken bridges and creating that pathway back to love. Give
of yourself in order to bring another closer to love. Take that love and
spread it everywhere you go, leaving people feeling happier and more
inspired for having met you.
This Valentine's Day remind yourself that you are worthy of receiving all
the love sent your way. Spend it with somebody who gives selflessly to
you or spend it with the #1 person worthy of love in your life – You! Either
way, when you hear the voice of love call your name... Answer it.
LOVE IS THE
ULTIMATE OUTLAW
