It's been said that love can move mountains. I haven't seen any mountains relocate in my lifetime but somehow the saying seems powerful and true. I was chatting with a friend today and we were talking about love and what's most important in life. What do we value? He posed the question to me of - "What is important?"
I thought for a moment and then wrote this...
giving
sharing
honoring one another
lifting one another up
loving and forgiving others and self
dying to myself and my ways
acknowledging when I am wrong
being transparent even when it's scary
being accepting of one another even our faults
nurturing each others gifts and talents and building into each others dreams and heart
to give without expectation of receiving
to love generously and without agenda
to make sure the people I love know that I love them
breathing, laughing, embracing
I know there is more to what's important and maybe we all have a list unique to who we are and what we value. For me, love is at the top of my list. It believes all things, hopes all things and endures all things and it NEVER FAILS.
What is important to you? Can you define it? Are you living it? Acting on it? Creating it?
I hope so, because this world needs you. Your life, your fire, your love, your passions and gifts and expression. It's unique and wonderful and totally YOU.
