Letting Love In

I have been wanting to make many grand gestures in my life as of late, such as finding a new job, moving my house and changing my financial picture in one fell swoop. But intuitive guidance is gentle, it is always so gentle.

This weekend I went on a grand cleanse, understanding that I cannot change anything in my life until I love my life just as exactly as it is. So I loved my little car. I washed it with the hose, I vacuumed it. I loved my yard. I mowed my lawn and tenderly watered the flowers.

 

I swept my sun deck. I picked white daisies and the hearty ivy from the garden and put arrangements all over the house. I cleaned my studio and looked at all my earnest art journals, my writing journals, my hundreds of collages.

When my house was clean from top to bottom, I was suddenly in love with my life and wondered why I was in such a hurry to change it. After a period of quiet in the evening, a craving for stillness, that stopped me in my tracks, I sat on my bed and looked at the daisies and the ivy I had picked, and a simple message came into my heart:

"Let Love In."

When I did this drawing some time later I saw love pouring into all parts of my mind, healing me, relaxing me, joining with me.

 

Some questions to ask yourself:

 

1.) In what way have you let love into your life today?

 

2.) How does your body feel when you let love in? Can you feel where you are open and closed in various parts of your body? Ask the closed pars of your body what you can do to open up to more love.
