Sometimes I feel such love in my heart for everyone that my heart actually aches.
It is almost an overwhelming feeling, when I really go deep into it, and I feel that love, that compassion, reach into all dimensions of time and space. I feel that it affects everyone, everywhere, and my intention is that everyone feels some glimmer of it, some little spark of light, and that it somehow brightens them in some way.
I took a very long walk last night, after a long (but fun) day of being at a health expo, and doing energy therapy on people all day. I had been inside for 6 hours, and I craved the fresh air, and the last bits of sunshine that were peeping out of the clouds.
So while walking, I felt that heart expansion that comes when I am focusing on sending love and compassion out into the universe.
As I was going deep into that heart expansion, I thought of various people that I have known in my life, and named them as I was so deep in that place of pure heart love and expansion. I intended love, peace, healing to all, in all dimensions of time and space, while feeling intense love and emotion welling up inside me.
Later that evening, I heard from 3 of the people that I had silently named while meditating. That’s not unusual except for the fact that I had not had any contact with them for quite some time. Out of the blue I heard from them, one after another. This filled me with the hope that we do make a difference when we open our hearts, and let love expand us to just BE in that place of unconditional love for everyone, everywhere.
When I am deep in the place of love and compassion for all, it does not matter to me what people do or say, or how they act in their own lives. I simply intend that the love that fills my heart during these moments reaches everyone. I feel that it does. I hope that you felt it too.
Peace.
