What Is LOVE?
Have you ever got out your magnifying glass and examined LOVE in detail?
I mean, what is love? How does it show up in your life? How does it FEEL???
There is so much exposure to the superficiality of love that it would be easy to think that love is all about romantic dinners, bunches of roses and weekends away!
But the bottom line is this – Love is what WE believe it to be. Love is as much about an interaction with another person as it is with our relationship with ourselves!
When I see or experience love, I feel a warmth wash over me like a cleansing balm and I feel hope and possibility fill my heart. So, here are some snapshots of Love from my ‘life camera’!
- Receiving an obscure gift you have longed for that only someone who truly listened to your heart would know to give
- The friend who drops everything to come to your aid – even when it inconveniences them
- The unconditional love of a cat or dog snuggling you when you feel lonely
- The feeling of inner peace when surrounded by the reassuring presence of Nature
- Witnessing the patience of a son or daughter whose elderly parent has lost their memory
- Being given a bouquet of fresh flowers – for no other reason than you love flowers…
- Reading over old letters and cards from a caring relative who constantly professed their belief in you
- Willingly ‘giving’ to those in need when you know they can never repay you
- Being of service to the community without expectation of recognition or reward
Essential oils commonly associated with Love are:
- doTERRA Geranium essential oil – this oil helps us to let go of distrust and any heavy heartedness, to believe in the goodness of our fellow man and be open to love flowing our way.
- doTERRA Rose essential oil – the quintessential oil associated with love that is a powerful ally in healing the heart and opening it up to the unconditional love of the ‘Divine’ without and the ‘Divine’ within.
