Dear friend,

What is love?

• Love is kindness. Forgiveness. Holding a positive attitude.
• Acceptance. Understanding.
• Compassion. Caring. Sharing.
• Supporting. Giving.
• Saying you care, saying you love.
• Working for a better situation for all, wherever you find yourself.
• Praying for a better situation for others.
• Wearing a smile.
• Lifting the energy.
• Providing solace. Holding a friend in pain.
• Feeling joy.
• It means doing these things now, in your current situation, with the people around you
• Projecting these attitudes to people you don’t know.
• Letting go of that great hurt from decades ago.
• And letting go of your hurt from yesterday when someone made that thoughtless comment.
• Love is doing it all with our attention on our Creator.

What is Not Love?

• Allowing yourself to be used. Being a door mat. Accepting inappropriate behavior.
• Making yourself sick with worry.
• Thinking poorly of yourself.
• Being angry because another isn’t “better.”
• Thinking you need to fix everything. Believing you need to save everyone.

Love is Now.
Live your life. Be a channel for God’s light today. Now. How “evolved” you think you are doesn’t matter.
Share the light that is in you. Now.

AUM,
Nityananda
