Love is in the Air
"The only way to be happy is to love. Unless you love, your life will flash by." - Tree of Life (2011)
There are two ways to perceive life either through grace or through nature. Lately, nature has taken precedent with anger and madness at the forefront. The result is an absence of grace and a lapse of understanding that life has many twists and turns with endings that often shock and disappoint. When events are opposite of expected a choice needs to made to move forward with love (grace) rather than lash out with spite and vitriol (nature). Alas, the glorious month of February has arrived signaling a time to bring forth love, respect and grace towards humanity with words of kindness either written or spoken. The opposite only reflects on the person initiating the wordsmith stream of discontent. Thus, let's as a collective move together towards love, let's spread love and let's find a few red and pink pieces to wear daily reminding us of the importance of being kind and loving.
"The nuns taught us there are two ways through life - the way of nature and the way of grace. YOU have to choose which way to follow." - Tree of Life (2011)

"Nature only wants to please itself. Get others to please it too. Likes to lord it over them. To have its own way. It finds reasons to be unhappy when all the world is shining around it. And love is smiling through all things." - Tree of Life (2011)

"The only way to be happy is to love. Unless you love, your life will flash by. Do good to them. Wonder. Hope." - Tree of Life (2011)
Valentines day is around the corner with love and hope in the air with reds and pinks centerstage. Take time to share goodwill and happiness verbally and written by choosing grace over nature. The harder path is to love, forgive and to understand. The path of nature is always easier and doesn't require or care about the effects of communication on humanity. Natures sees the moment, is selfish and self absorbed. It is easy to implode and pontificate rather than to artfully and thoughtfully communicate with the skill to persuade. Simplify the journey of life with pinks, and reds while choosing to live by the standard of grace. The world will suddenly brighten and the things out of ones control will be set aside. Relish the beauty, peace and tranquility and remember to love, forgive, forget and to give thanks.
Happy Valentines Day!
