Emma Roberts lead a
wonderful 5 Rhythms dance session in Hastings this evening and it ended with a
song I heard for the first time ‘I don’t want to know about evil, I only want to know about love’. Great advice for those
who want to nurture more love in their lives.
Focusing on love rather than fear helps
events to flow, makes us more generous with people and gives us happier
experiences. I believe we all have love
as our essence but we may need encouragement open our hearts and celebrate it.
Being in
love is a little like sharing a joke- we laugh and then our laughing sets off
the other person and their laugh is funny and, just as we’re calming down, we
see something else that’s funny and before long we just can’t stop!
It’s easier
and more usual to ‘laugh at…’ or ‘be in love with…’ but quite possible to be in
love with life, with the sunshine, with dancing or with nature.
Once we’re
in love with one thing, or in one area of our lives, we can more easily transfer
this feeling to other areas. Being in
love with someone else encourages us to love ourselves more, we may be more
able to love and appreciate our work, to love money or to be more generous with
people we don’t get on with. It
generally puts us in a better mood and why would we want to leave somewhere
that feels so good to entertain fear?
Perhaps we should be informed about evil in the world, news that effect us and situations we might be able to influence, but maybe we could do that from a place of love and understanding rather than worry and fear?
