LOVE NO MATTER WHAT?
Celebrate the people who love you no matter what and do the same for others.
In my early teens I tried to take my own life because being gay seemed like a terrible and fearful thing. So I took what I thought were enough aspirin to do the job. I was surprised when I woke up the next morning.
Instead of imagining ending my life I had a vivid image of my grandmother’s embracing me and expressing their love.
The constancy of their love was a life jacket to me. Years later I began to understand that their love, which had turned my thoughts to life and not death, was the threshold of the journey to loving myself.
I think of them with gratitude, even though they have been dead for decades. I celebrate their love and hope that I am doing the same for others. Whose love has been a saving grace to you and how will your love be a life-jacket to others?
Call-to-Action:
-
Express your gratitude for those who have loved you no matter what
-
Be open to doing the same for others
Notice how your awareness of generous love expands your heart.
