The ups, the downs, the middles... as I experience them, as I view them, as I hear about them! To shed light, to lift spirits, and simply to give voice to the myriad of thoughts floating about in the depths of my mind!

<i><b> A poem by the reverend Safire Rose</b></i><br />
<br />
<i><b> </b></i><strong> </strong><br />
<strong>She let go. Without a thought or a word, she let go.</strong><br />
She let go of the fear.<br />
She let go of the judgments.<br />
She let go of the confluence of opinions swarming around her head.<br />
She let go of the committee of indecision within her.<br />
She let go of all the ‘right’ reasons.<br />
Wholly and completely, without hesitation or worry, she just let go.<br />
She didn’t ask anyone for advice.<br />
She didn’t read a book on how to let go.<br />
She didn’t search the scriptures.<br />
She just let go.<br />
She let go of all of the memories that held her back.<br />
She let go of all of the anxiety that kept her from moving forward.<br />
She let go of the planning and all of the calculations about how to do it just right.<br />
She didn’t promise to let go.<br />
She didn’t journal about it.<br />
She didn’t write the projected date in her Day-Timer.<br />
She made no public announcement and put no ad in the paper.<br />
She didn’t check the weather report or read her daily horoscope.<br />
She just let go.<br />
She didn’t analyze whether she should let go.<br />
She didn’t call her friends to discuss the matter.<br />
She didn’t do a five-step Spiritual Mind Treatment.<br />
She didn’t call the prayer line.<br />
She didn’t utter one word.<br />
She just let go.<br />
No one was around when it happened.<br />
There was no applause or congratulations.<br />
No one thanked her or praised her.<br />
No one noticed a thing.<br />
Like a leaf falling from a tree, she just let go.<br />
There was no effort.<br />
There was no struggle.<br />
It wasn’t good and it wasn’t bad.<br />
It was what it was, and it is just that.<br />
In the space of letting go, she let it all be.<br />
A small smile came over her face.<br />
A light breeze blew through her. And the sun and the moon shone forevermore…<br />

He then goes on to describe how life is like two railway lines, and that at any given time there is something good going on and something bad that needs to be dealt with! This got me thinking about my own life and happiness, and made me realize that just as he says, there are always good things and bad things happening simultaneously, but more often than not, I, perhaps a lot of us out there, tend to focus on the bad not realizing how much good we actually have going on! With this thought in mind, I decided to take part in the 100 happy days challenge that's been taking facebook by storm the last couple of months, but instead of posting on facebook, I'll blog about it here! My goal in this is not to pretend that everything is perfect, or to ignore or supress the less pleasant issues I have going on, it's a personal exercise to get me to focus on what's good! Despite how bad my day may seem! It may include big happy moments, or the small little moments that still make life special! 100 days, here we go... :)<br />

<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Love must be one of the most written on topics. And why not, it's something important to a lot of people if not everyone. Something people think and dream about. To be loved and to love unconditionally, not because of one or two specific traits, but because of all your traits wrapped up together that make you you! </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">So many poems and songs have been written on the topic of love, so much so that the word itself has becomes somewhat commercial, with no true meaning attached to it! But some versus have manage to capture the essence of love! Described so beautifully it touches your heart! A few of my favorite include:</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i><span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><b><br /></b></span></span></i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i><span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><b>“Love is lak de sea. It’s uh movin’ thing, but still and all, it takes its shape from de shore it meets, and it’s different with every shore.”</b> ― Zora Neale Hurston, Their Eyes Were Watching God</span></span></i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I like this because it speaks to the fact that love isn't always the same! It's different with different people! And I'm not talking about the love for your man being different from the love of your child. No! It's different with different partners. Which makes it new and unique, nothing like you'd have ever felt, even if you've been in love before. </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">But the main reason why I like this so much is because it speaks to the fact that love isn't one sided! It's a feeling that is based on give and receive! It's shaped by what you receive in turn from the one you love. It's moving back and forth between two people! </span><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">It reminds me of another metaphor I like to use for love..a dance! How you move depends on how well your partner receives you. The dance is never still, and it's never the same with different partners! It's unique, based on the individual qualities of the two people coming </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">together. And that's what makes it beautiful! </span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I think this is sooo beautiful! But not just beautiful, it speaks truth! The harsh truth at that! It acknowledges all the pleasant aspects we associate with love, because the kind of joy you have from love, is different from any other joy; and the feeling of being truly loved by another raises you higher than anything else can raise you! But as every ying has it's yang, so does the pleasantry of love have its painful side! Only through true love, can your heart know true pain! For in love, you're open to the vulnerability that comes in sharing yourself with another. And only in love are your boundaries truly tested and your flaws excruciatingly exposed! Love is "to know the pain of too much tenderness", because to love someone so much, your heart aches with the pain that they feel, and with the fear that you feel of loosing such a beautiful thing! But then he goes on to say, that the fear of unpleasantries should not keep you from following the call of love. Because then though you might experience joy and laughter and tears without love, they will never match up to the intensity of these same feelings when in love! And I think that is so true! And lastly, "think not you can direct the course of love, for love, if it finds you worthy, directs your course"! Which speaks for itself, and is absolutely true!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">But of all of these, one verse remains thee verse on love above all! It's a verse I have read many times, but until recently never really thought about the meaning behind it.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><span lang="EN-GB"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><span lang="EN-GB">1 Corinthians 13:<b style="font-style: italic;"> "Love is patient. Love is kind. It is not </b></span><b><i><span lang="EN-GB">envious, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor </span></i></b><b><i><span lang="EN-GB">others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no </span></i></b><b><i><span lang="EN-GB">record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil, but rejoices with the </span></i></b><b><i><span lang="EN-GB">truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always </span></i></b></span><b><i><span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">perseveres. Love never fails." </span></span></i></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Reading it in the past, I always read through it quickly which made me see the general gist of it but it didn't truly sink in. But reading it now word for word, I see just how much truth is in it! This is the Gold Standard of love! The very standard that everyone in love should strive and work to achieve day for day! Love is Patient – it waits if it needs to!</span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> It's patient when he/she irritates the hell out you! Patience!!! Love is kind! This one in particular I find is often over looked! Just because you've grown accustomed to someone, and because you know they love you and you love them, and you're together and plan on staying that way, doesn't mean you can just be mean! I strongly believe that for love to truly flourish, kind words even after you've been together for a long long while, go a long long way! Kindness in your responses, kindness even in your arguments! .... "Love is not self seeking" - your thoughts and the intentions behind your actions, should first and foremost have the recipient of your love in mind. And just think, if both partners where to do this, how beautiful and healthy would that relationship be? "Love is not easily angered! - Even though your partner is the one person who knows how to push your buttons, love is not easily angered! I admit, this one isn't easy! Because when you're stripped bare in your emotions, and you feel offended it's easy to get on the defensive and lash out in anger! But love is not EASILY angered! ..."Love always protects" - I take this to mean, stands up for the other, defends them, is on their side always even though you don't necessarily agree with them. You can still support them and respect them, yet disagree with their views. I truly believe people can learn to communicate their opposing views, in a way that gets their honest point across, but still leaves the other person feeling supported and not alone on one side of the fence! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">After saying all this, before we go beating ourselves up for our actions not matching up to this description in our own relationships, keep in mind that it is a gold standard!!! Something to strive and work towards each day! For the sake of love! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">:) :) :)</span></div>

<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><u> Thought to Ponder</u>: As we go out each day and interact with people, we should strive to hear and not just listen, to see and not just look! A small act of kindness can go a long way and make a huge difference in a person's life! More than we sometimes realize! :) :) </span></span><br />
