Love

Had the chance to talk with my brother today for a half hour and like a light switch, he was able to flip me right back to feeling grounded, aware and awake again. Thank you Bren! love you with all my heart.

As I sit here all kinds of thoughts of peace, love and diversity are racing through my head, thinking of the great potential that each individual human being has. While energy prospetors are looking to tap into new renewable resources, we should be looking at how we can tap into our collectively shared resources of the heart, the positive mind and the shared bonds that connect us. While contemplation only serves to outline the reality of the world, it fails to take action towards the issues we contemplate on. Going to therefore outline some extremely simple daily actions you can share with others to bridge the natural/fabricated gaps that exist between each other.

1. make today a day to say something positive to 5 people in your day who you usually don't communicate with regularly. Be creative with your approach..

2. Give a hug to a random person. It can be very uncomfortable at first, but with practice you will honestly begin to not care about their reaction, and focus more on the fact that love is being spread. and oh will you get some funny reactions. haha

3. write a positive card about life, about positive change, about the power of humanity coming together, put it in an envelope and hand it off to someone that you pass while walking on the street. at the end of the letter have instructions to pass it on to another person.

4. if you are a religious person, converse with people of other religions and focus discussion on the shared similarities and positive messages existant between faiths, building on global collaboration. This especially needs to happen between religions.

5. Exchange smiles while driving, walking, sitting at your desk. wherever you work, play make an effort to show people you!! A smile is like a persons book cover. It reveals what is beneath.. make that book cover damn beautiful and share smiles.

6. have read in scientific research that giving/recieving 5-10 hugs a day is groundbreaking in terms of positively effecting ones mood and those around.

7. Think positive. The thoughts we have on a daily basis, truly create the world we see. More positive our thinking becomes, the more beauty we will start to see grow around us.

Anywho, love love and more love!
