HEART DIARY
we are all this rich
Love is our greatest treasure and forever belongs to us.
Embrace the Signs of Love within you.
We quietly pen the last few paragraphs of this year before we turn a page, and then inscribe ‘Year 2014’ that begins the next chapter of our miraculous life.
I’m not sure if it’s the same with you, but this year it seems there’s a hush in our spirit in the midst of the holiday rush.
A drawing in of precious silence between moments of doing, and sweet stillness even in the doing.
An honoring of us, the sacredness of our being.
Nothing really matters here ‘accept’ listening to our heart – and in this place, we discover we hear clearly the whisper in each others heart.
I believe this is the greatest gift we could ever give ourselves – and the most extravagant gift we could give another.
I love that we are ALL this rich, to give this much.
of deep inner peace, strength, beauty and love.
may we stand boldly in the Light of Love –
drink it in, fill ourselves up
and know we are the Light and we are Love.
the looking glass of love
Love will open a place for us to see clearly.
Look through your heart today, for clear vision and Signs of Love.

twice as much love
Love doubles all things good.
Be loving and gentle with yourself today. It’s a Sign of Love that multiplies.

the miracle of gathering together
Love unites us as one beating heart.
Look for the sameness in each other and appreciate our differences –
it will create an amazing Sign of Love

sticks and love in India (remarkable story)
There is one language we all understand – and it’s Love.
Speak Signs of Love today, even if it’s in silence.
I was weather beaten and emotionally depleted. I had been traveling for over a year, many countries, many miles.I was feeling lost and alone knowing my lover was preparing to leave me after learning of our pregnancy. We had a “date” to meet for breakfast to talk.
It was early morning and none of the shops were open. The streets were mostly deserted in that busy city of Mumbai, India.A young boy walked along next to me. He had his t-shirt full of fruit which he would pluck out and bite. If he made a sour face the fruit would be flung to the side
Picking another, he gleaned the edible bites. I imagined him going through the garbage to have found the rotting fruit.
I arrived at the restaurant which was closed, so I sat on the curb. The boy sat down next to me, staying focused on his morning food.A man walking very fast, passed by. The timing was incredible, and too late for me to stop, as the boy bit , scrunched up his face and tossed, not even looking at the road.
“Splat”, right onto the bright white shirt. The man stopped and shouted threatening the boy, I jumped up and tried to explain that he didn’t mean to, it was an innocent mistake.
The man flustered by me, white woman, American tourist, left us alone. Whew. The boy and I exchanged sly smiles and then laughed.
We tried to communicate but not knowing each others language, it was impossible. In my exasperation I picked up a stick and began to tap it on the curb.
He watched. I gave him the stick and he played out a rhythm. We both started tapping on the curb, the dirt the rocks, our bodies. It was fun. I felt so light and hopeful and outside of myself.
My friend showed up as the restaurant opened, and I said good bye to the boy. He sweetly nodded with a big smile on his face.
Once inside and sitting, it hit me. We could have invited the boy in for food, I felt deflated, so sad at my lost chance.
My lover left me that night. I wandered the streets of Mumbai alone for a week, before finding a ticket home.On my last night I was getting rid of my Rupees. I only had $10 left, so I bought some scarves and nick-knacks for gifts to take home.
Then walking towards me with his arm around another guy. I see my friend, the fruit eater.
HIs face lights up when he sees me and I am so excited.. He tells his friend in Hindi the story of our meeting and his friend nods and smiles in approval.
As I shook his hand, I held my other hand over my heart thanking him . The two friends then continued on their way.
And I didn’t want to cheapen our connection. But it was all I had and they were walking away.

Reminders of Love can show up anywhere.
Gratefully notice what nourishes you, even our food is a Sign of Love.

My daughter and I shared a fish and chips with coleslaw that came with a heart! A very fun ‘sign of love’ for the two of us that day! We thought maybe a dessert at Sweet Life might have one too, so we headed there next!!! –
