I was thinking about this during the night. I spent a good bit of time yesterday listening to programs on getting aligned, chakras etc. the whole while thinking how we make things so very complicated when really, all we need to do is be in the moment with love.
I had a conversation with my niece last night. She was complaining about a friend talking behind her back. I listened for awhile and then asked her if she'd ever done the same thing to her friend. She said, "NO! Absolutely not!". Then I asked her what she had been doing for the past few minutes. She was quiet for a few minutes, then just started to laugh. When we got off the phone, she called her friend and apologized.
I realize that this example is a very simplistic one, but I've come to believe that it is these tiny, seemingly insignificant interactions we have with others are the very opportunities we have to learn to be in the moment with love, every moment.
Much love to you, Meerie!
Another thought: BE the love in the moment.
