HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY TO YOU! 

Valentine's Day has lodged itself in the history of our country, even as it has shifted from its original intent of exchanging heartfelt expressions of love, to simple sentiments depicted on a greeting card today.  This holiday is more than a single day dedicated to loving testimony and gesture.  One of its greater gifts is that it can remind us to love deeply every day. Yet, where do we find the example for living lovingly in each moment that comes before us?

Here's one way.  Some say that the greatest gift of love is to give up one's life for another. While giving up our life for another surely is a most noble gift, spiritually speaking even this falls short of the ultimate demonstration of the loving way.  For example, when we go inward and listen to the "still, small voice," we are connecting to the single Source that brings spiritual order to our lives.  Once aware of this inward Truth, we bring glory to its Source by demonstrating its inspirational quality into the Universe. Coming out of our innocence--much like a child--we express our love authentically by being True to our deepest selves.  Spiritually, then, we do give up our lives--living largely from the false beliefs and opinions about ourselves--so all may live a better life.  What greater gift of love is there, than to give our divine essence to any and all who are ready and willing to receive it? This example of spiritual authenticity also frees others to live True to themselves.  Indeed, taking initiative to be what we really are, instead of displaying what others would have us be and do, is the gift that makes us all free--free to love purely, in all love's glory.

In 2010, let us show the way by inspiring others to live to their fullest, to be only what they really are--divine--so that all may have an opportunity to  give and receive the gift of real love that expands the universe of love exponentially.  Then, truly, we can say, "HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!" every day.

Sincerely,

Making love...                                           Making love...

...is greeting                                              ...is placing no boundaries on
radiant inner beauty                              the tenderness of a hug
with a kiss                                                  the warmth of a smile
on a sometimes reluctant hand           the meeting of soulful eyes
knowing the Truth                                   the opening of one's heart
of the connection.                                  the character of a handshake
                                                                      the honesty of speech
...is walking arm in arm                           truthful action
quickened by tales of yesteryear     the gift of love
listening with rapt attention.               trust
                                                                     respect for dignity
...is a hug savored                                  the keeping of a promise and
while bidding farewell                            the meaning of friendship.
for but a moment of eternity.
