Love is the Answer to Every Question
Author: Shirley Ryan  | Posted: 05-03-2007 | Comments: 0 | Views: 37 | Rating: (52)  (?) 
From the beginning of time we have been attracted to each other and to the continuing cycle of life, to gain sustenance, grow and play out a destiny together. This attraction leads to admiration, love, and in due course, to higher vibrations of light energy. At love’s first blush, our combined energy is a powerful thing to behold. We can practically see the stars light up as we become the focus and center of the earth, of our Universe. We are in awe of each other as we discover the wonder and bliss of being together, being one. The mirror image is perfect as it reflects the joy and power of sharing. This is perfect love, perfect joy and perfect peace played out in a reflection of the other.
Romantic love is the prelude to a partnership in life’s journey. This powerful journey provides nourishment to the soul, and alas, ego builds as the perfect complement to life. More definition comes to the partnership as a family begins and we take our place in the community.
When we look down at our first child we realize this gift from the Heavens, the perfect creation and complement to life, has unfolded. Great steams of energy shift our personal light ever higher in a brilliant illumination that everyone recognizes. The joy and love in this reflection of self is an awesome experience that many share and all recognize. Love answers the ancient call to generate more love.
Loving from the deepest part of ourselves, given without expectation or judgment, allows the blessed object of our desire to flourish. Both participants of the mirrored partnership find balance and healing in this renewing exchange of energy. In this simple exchange we truly see the other at a soul level while reciprocally giving of self. This is easily recognized and understood with lovers, children, friends, and also with pets. Energy shifts back and forth as we take some, and give some. Food for the soul, this nourishment is a critical part of loving, and often overlooked in our driven lifestyles. Keeping love’s energy vibrating high requires that we see each other, feel each other and give to the other in the way that meets our personal needs.
Let’s look at this from a different perspective, a plant for example. What kind of growth would occur in plant life if we only put water on it and deprived it of food? We all need different types of food to flourish. Plants get their energy from light; therefore, they need light to live and to go through the natural photosynthesis process. They will subsist without other nutrients, but not thrive. For plants to go beyond survival, to thrive, they need additional nutrients as the soil is depleted. Plants also need to be loved and admired. Ask anyone with a green thumb why their plants do so well. They will readily admit that they love their plants. This is the difference between a green thumb and a brown thumb. The green thumb gardener gives their plants attention.
Even an object, such as a car, needs attention. Car lovers provide more undivided attention to their vehicles than some parents give to their children. They wash, rub, polish, admire, take pictures of and fully appreciate their vehicles. Thus love creates beauty in the eye of the beholder. Not so easy for someone with whom relationship is a struggle.
The relationship that is a struggle is the most important of all. I am not referring to abusive relationships, but those that seem to cause discomfort. This is where we really grow into ourselves. Learning to see past the projection in this relationship of our most unwanted traits is the first step in true love of self.
Difficult as it may be to admit, that mirror is there because we have invited it into our lives. Get rid of the mirror and another one appears to take its place. Get rid of the relationship and it will be back exactly like the last one. When we allow ourselves to witness this part of self, accept and love ourselves, we are empowered. We have come to know and embrace all aspects of humanity.
Providing the energy of love is all there is in life. Love is the answer to every question. Give unconditionally to what you behold, especially those parts that are not well understood. Observe and give without judgment or expectation. Witness the mirror’s heart, the fulcrum and core of the reflection. This is love fulfilled, baring and exposing itself to both sides of the mirror’s edge in a dance of compassion. Love is co-creating itself in splendor and adorning itself in the light from our deepest and purest soulful reflection.
Love asks nothing, but to be. Whatever is left within the circle of love falls aside in appreciation of its self. We need only share that self and in the giving, we both grow and move to the next level of beingness. When we find that fulcrum’s edge in each mirror we behold, the relationship or beloved object comes full circle and energy’s light shifts again in deep revelation.
Lifted to perfect balance, we co-create our lives in full recognition as duality becomes complementary rather than apposed to the other. Touch one thing in pure conscious awareness and our veil is lifted. We ascend to full consciousness, and the circle of life fills with a purity and peace that nourishes the spirit. As love becomes the answer to every question, we live life in a mirror-less world of full abundance: materially, emotionally and spiritually.

Stacy and mom again
By: lover454 | 23-11-2007
Two days ago (Wednesday, November 20, 2007) at lunch time when Stacy went to the 99 cent store she brought 25 rings (three styles in every color). Any way Stacy started to think about the two times when her mom said the following: (a) Stacy and her mom were at a crafts fair and Stacy was looking at rings and Stacy had a few in her hand and her mom said "how many are u going to buy" Then later on her mom said she did not care what or how much Stacy brought. Her mom told her that the only reason she did not want Stacy to buy the rings was because they were ugly. (They were ugly and that was why Stacy put them back and did not buy the rings) ((THIS INCIDENT HAPPENED OVER THE SUMMER)) (b) Stacy went to a 99 cent store with her mother because Stacy wanted to see about purses (some stores sell beautiful purses for $1.69 - parachute material similar to LeSportac). Stacy has a lot of purses at that price to. Any way as Stacy was taking the colors Stacy wanted her mother grabbed them out of Stacys hand. Later on Stacys mom said that the reason why she grabbed them out of Stacys hand and said that Stacy didnt need more was because she wanted to leave the store. (THIS HAPPENED A YEAR AGO) However, when Stacy and her mom were eating dinner on Wednesday, November 20, 2007 Stacy said to her mom do you care that I brought 25 rings today and her mom said no it is your money buy whatever you want. SO of course Stacy called me and I told her that she is reading way to much into this and her mother really does not care.MY question: (1) What do you think - Is Stacy reading to much into those two incidents I wrote in red above and (2) do you concur with what I told her.

Illuminating Relationships: Dancing in the Light
By: Shirley Ryan | 02/05/2007 | Relationships
Within our individual spiritual development, a feeling of comfort exists within us as our place in the universe and a connection to something larger than us unfolds. We are happier, more peaceful, and realize full spiritual wellness. Once we know who we are today and where we are going, we can connect better to those around us. Whether we are in long term relationships or newly together, it makes sense that we share our understanding of that inner self as we know it.

We send the Universe, your higher power, your higher consciousness; however you wish to frame this, as well as other people, a mixed message. Send out a clear message of what you want, and what you want to see happen, that way you will see the results you expect and desire.

Greetings become a mantra of mindfulness meditation. The more emotion behind the recognition, the more we know that this person truly reflects who we are, at least who we were at one time. The more positive the emotions, the more we like or love this person. The more negative the emotions, the more we reject the person in the mirror, this manifestation of ourselves.

Did you Dread Valentines Day?
By: Shirley Ryan | 05/03/2007 | Relationships
Admitting that you hate Valentine’s Day is like saying you hate puppies and warm fuzzy kittens. Valentines Day traditions mechanically add stress, guilt and depression to relationships trying to find balance. On the other hand, the day can add to our loneliness and depression if we are not in a relationship, because it reminds us that we are alone in the world.
