On the day I started The Glass House Retreat this "Spread Love" photo was my logo until Kelly rocked the "real" one.
Although it's not the logo of TGHR, it IS my motto.
I took this picture in late August after a conversation with my mama about coincidences (or the fact that there are no such thing as coincidences...) after a night/morning of them. She was explaining to me that the universe ONLY worked in love and I needed to know and believe that.
After our chat, I went off on a walk. I was listening to my iPod. The One Direction song "Moments" came on (the joy of having a teen daughter is you can listen to her music and love it) and when I looked to my left THIS was spray painted on a wall.
Of course it was...
Beautiful, non-coincidental graffiti.
The weekend I took this picture was a pivotal one for me. It was beautiful on a million levels.
Oddly enough (ha!) I woke up this morning and the lyrics to this song were in my head. (I can't be the only person who wakes up with a song in their head or their heart, am I?)
While going through Facebook this morning I came upon this article about Ann Curry's one simple tweet about performing 26 acts of kindness that has gone viral. It brought me to tears. I was thinking how I love to perform Random Acts of Kindness (RAKs) on a pretty regular basis. This morning I proudly watched as my daughter brought in 14 gluten free cupcakes to her Italian class (for the 16 minutes they will be there) because she wanted to. She now only makes them gluten free so her friend can always have one. I think about my sister stopping by with a gift yesterday just because I finished my school work. I send massive blessings to my Jen's who have RAK'd me all year. To Kelly, whose sheer love created the glorious GH logo. To all the rest of the people who make my heart happy.
So today, share some love. Then if you are so inclined, tweet about.
I don't normally write twice in a day. I try to keep my thoughts concise so that you don't drop into a coma while reading. But today I am compelled to share love. To remind us all that the universe only works in love.
The world didn't end.
Just so you know...
I love you.
