this girl called LOVE

Today He called me LOVE.

He said that I make up the rules and it's all in my hands.
As shocked as I may have been, He whispered,
"Don't be surprised because you've known it all along. The love you've been craving,
it's who you were born to be My child, and now you are ready."
The greatest love is seeing beyond yourself and other people, it's seeing through them to their soul.

Today He called me LOVE.

Not just a mere sentiment but the truth which holds His law.
He shined His light and said,
"From the darkness you have been delivered so get up and walk."
This is an extraordinary move He has asked me to make but He said I could do it because,
I'm EXTRAordinary and that's nothing new.
The nickname "Infinity" was such a precise choice for me to make because it's who I always was and it reflects His Divine Love which is also infinite and mysterious.

Today He called me LOVE.

So together we wait ahead wanting you all to catch up because we know in the ending there is always love.

With a heart of acceptance, yet still I protested,
"Father isn't love something you feel?"

Quickly He replied,
"No it isn't my child; it's what you become. I watched you at your happiest when I knew you had nothing and during that time you allowed the unknown to cast a new life. You've bravely decided to not cling to the past and I watched you rid yourself of expectations and foolish hopes. You stopped fearing the fear of the unknown, and it's been shown because today I called YOU love. My daughter, life is fleeting and is so impermanent, grasping is vain and clinging is futile but My renewal is forever and now at the same time. Love conforms to OUR vision, and I know you can see it now. You yearned to be 'called out' and so you have, but remember this: love also calls people out so today you are responsible to radiate who you are to others. The gift of who you are isn't just for yourself... GIVE AND RECEIVE... GIVE AND RECEIVE... GIVE AND RECEIVE! My invisible light has shined on the seed that was buried within you."

Today He called me LOVE.

I have a new ability to work miracles so now the minor stuff is casually overlooked. But know this: people won't easily find me (love that is) just because they're lovable.
No!
In order to be found you must promise love because I don't and I won't come automatically, nor am I to be forced because otherwise I wouldn't be love at all, now would I be?
But don't worry because if you unknowingly forget to promise love and are unfortunate to experience me now, you'll have many more chances in the life to come. When you die He has promised to show you the truth immediately. It's an experience of love, knowingness, and bliss because everything that is Him; flows from them.

Today He called me LOVE.

So that I could present one option to you all...

SURRENDER!

Because the person who does is always open and always observing. Surrender not to detach or avoid being touched but so that you can have enough space to find out what is real. Today I have been called love but we are ALL apart of something else. We all belong to ONE unity and that unity is love.

So this is love and today He called me LOVE. So this is ME and I give myself to YOU. ©

When the student is ready..

A student asks a teacher, "What is love?"

The teacher said, "in order to answer your question, go to the wheat field and choose the biggest wheat and come back.

But the rule is: you can go through them only once and cannot turn back to pick."

The student went to the field, and went through the first row, he saw one big wheat, but he wonders... maybe there is a bigger one later.

Then he saw another bigger one... But maybe there is an even bigger one waiting for him.

Later, when he finished more than half of the wheat field, he starts to realize that the wheat is not as big as the previous one he saw, he knows he had missed the biggest one, and he regretted it.

So, he went back to the teacher empty handed.

The teacher told him, "this is love... You keep looking for a better one, but later you realize, that you have already missed the person..."

"What is marriage then?" the student asked.

The teacher said, "in order to answer your question, go to the corn field and choose the biggest corn and come back.

But the rule is: you can go through them only once and cannot turn back to pick."

The student went to the corn field, this time he is careful not to repeat the previous mistake, when he reached the middle of the field, he picked one medium corn that he feels satisfied with, and goes back to the teacher.

The teacher told him, "This time you brought a corn back. You looked for one that is just nice, and you have faith and believe this is the best one you can get... This is marriage."


Happy Valentine's Day

Can you hear me now?

Why people shout when angry....

A Hindu saint, who was visiting the river Ganges to take bath, found a group of family members on the banks, shouting in anger at each other. He turned to his disciples smiled and asked.
"Why do people in anger shout at each other?"

Disciples thought for a while, one of them said, "Because we lose our calm, we shout."

"But, why should you shout when the other person is just next to you? You can as well tell him what you have to say in a soft manner," asked the saint.

Disciples gave some other answers but none satisfied the other disciples. Finally the saint explained...

"When two people are angry at each other, their hearts distance a lot. To cover that distance they must shout to be able to hear each other. The angrier they are, the stronger they will have to shout to hear each other to cover that great distance.

What happens when two people fall in love? They don’t shout at each other but talk softly, because their hearts are very close. The distance between them is either nonexistent or very small…"

The saint continued, "When they love each other even more, what happens? They do not speak, only whisper and they get even closer to each other in their love. Finally they even need not whisper, they only look at each other and that’s all. That is how close two people are when they love each other."

He looked at his disciples and said. "So when you argue do not let your hearts get distant, do not say words that distance each other more, Or else there will come a day when the distance is so great that you will not find the path to return."

The Path of Wisdom

Some people get older but they don't get wiser.

I've learned in my experience that gaining wisdom is a choice. It is not something that we are entitled to have and it certainly does not come simply because we celebrate a birthday. Wisdom also can not be learned nor inherited.

I once foolishly thought that once we reached a particular age, we would automatically obtain the wisdom required to enter into that phase of life. Well, that's absolutely not the case.

I know this story of two women; one older than the other. The two women were quite different in their own rights but they shared one common factor. As time would have it things in their lives took place and hurt, disappointment, and betrayal soon began to be shared amongst them.

These painful components charged negative forces between these two and their behaviors began to reflect the energy within them. Time continued to move forward and the women continued to purposely do and say inappropriate things to one another.

Then one day the younger of the two made a choice to put a stop to the pattern of behavior that caused them to be rivals. She chose to step away from the behaviors that no longer matched her age and she turned her past into a learning experience. That transition into letting go of childish ways and allowing the maturity of womanhood molded her mindset and actions.

Unfortunately, this was not received by the older woman. She continued to hold onto bitterness and spitefully set up thorns to be placed in the wayside of the younger woman. Years passed and she steadily grew older but sorrowfully she lacked in her ability to accept reality for what it was and gain the necessary wisdom. She lived her life hating the younger woman because she hated herself. She knew that her time had become shortened and she had not done the work it took to choose a new path; the path of wisdom.

I believe the moral of the story is to show that despite how young you are, wisdom is obtainable. When Solomon became king (at a young age) he asked God for wisdom and it's noted that Solomon was the wisest person to walk this earth. I say do yourself a favor and instead of becoming a grumpy old man or woman, choose to walk the way of wisdom before it's too late. In the end, you are only hurting and or saving yourself.

I've got a business to RUN

My Etsy Shop has been doing pretty well.

I personally think that I have had some of the kindest customers so far. If you haven't visited my shop in awhile, things have certainly changed.

Firstly the name has changed. The shop can be found at beYOU2ful.etsy.com now. I wanted to expand myself beyond just the I AM Collection and this shop name allows me the freedom to do so.

I've also began making accessories. I enjoy wearing every piece that I make, so when someone else wants to share in that with me-- it truly makes it all worth it. I ask that you follow me as I follow that voice within me that drives my creativity. I can be found on Twitter at twitter.com/justbeYOU2ful. Here I let my followers get the first dibs on all things beYOU2ful. I have coupons for returning customers as well as occasional giveaways for new customers.

It's great fun and I thank you for taking the time to read my blog. I believe new things are about to take place because as we all know... when one door is shut another is open.

no age. no race. no face. Just beYOU2ful.
