We Live, We Love, We Learn

Soaring Eagle

Our hearts are incredibly strong, and that’s exactly what makes them equally vulnerable.

The magic, the power that holds love together is very delicate. Yet, its unusual strength appears to be of one single invisible thread.

Try not to temper with such fragile, life force energies. It causes disturbance in the heart. All it takes is one small alteration and the blessing can be gone. 

Such a fine-tuned frequency, razor sharp clarity is easily gone if one does not fully surrender. If we try to interfere with the forces beyond our understanding. It frightens me – that a tiny mind influenced modification can cause such a turmoil.

Love has the power to heal,
to release the tears of joy, dread, or grief
;
The intensity of the heart,

makes the feelings alive.

We play, we resist,
we surrender to its magic.
We stumble, we learn
to grow wiser, stronger, more loving.

When I start to quiver,
if my voice begins to shiver
and I end up in tears,
hold me closer to your heart, my heart.

I hold you and you hold me.
until tears dry out.
Until it’s time to let go.

My fire, your fire;
My kiss, your kiss.

I am your part, as you are a part of me.
The bond, the thread between the two is strong;
It runs deep.

Come closer,
take a sip.

It’s so easy to forget, to get lost in this world filled with mind driven activities, goals, expectations, distorted priorities, packed schedules, disturbances, jealousy, resentment, crude power, fear mongering, acidic anger, caustic sadness, chaos, and confusion. In this day and age, it often feels, as if almost everyone is so love deprived, they just want to squeeze out every ounce of you once they sniff out the irresistible life force. As soon as they get a chance. Can’t blame them. It’s what starvation does to us, human beings with gentle hearts and mighty souls.

Love is a free spirit. It commands our full attention; it requires us to surrender. Love can never be managed or conquered. Stay humble, forever grateful, be present, trust entirely. When you learn to surrender to love, it gives you wings. You grow stronger, see clearly, you simply know. May we all rise above and soar like eagles across the endless blue sky.

What is Love?

Boy and Rose

Actions arising out of stillness,
being moved without lifting a finger,
not trying to pursue a thing.

In a tender embrace, we stay,
entwined until we part ways;
Like a tree branch cherishing its leaves,
like the sea cradles its fish.

All that has to come to light,
let it come from deep within:
fear, anger, sadness, shame, pain.

I remain beside you:
no thoughts,
not trying to interfere.

Nothing is broken;
There’s nothing to be fixed.

Being fully present is the way
that sets us free from our self-imposed confinement.

I am your timeless self—
the one beside you on our journey,
the one to hold the space when you feel stuck,
a gentle nudge, a wink, a touch of hands.

No judgment,
never pushing you away.

Allowing space—
space that holds you
as you emerge from your secret den,
trusting that you can,
knowing you are held by grace.

Fear, anger, sadness, shame, pain.
They start to melt away.
Left behind is empty space.

All you have been taught begins to fade away.
You are on the way to find yourself again.

I hold you and you hold me
in that long-lasting moment.
The worlds we knew, they disappear.
It’s just you and me:
infinity of possibilities,
gratitude,
joy,
tears of compassion,
everlasting song of silence.

The heart is at peace,
mind comes to rest.
I feel blessed.

“I” enters the flow,
emptiness infused with love and light.
Finally,
I know I am
I am home.
