What would Love with a capital L do?
Dec 14, 2024Every moment in our lives is a choice point. The choice is binary: love or fear. While the variations of both are endless, their essences don’t change. At this fork in the road of time, am I going to act from love or fear?
Part of becoming a soul warrior is being able to look at life, people, decisions, situations and yourself through a lens of kindness, understanding and compassion. The qualities we have developed through our suffering are powerful tools for making that decision in each moment.
Our journey is from the fear-based state of our separate, human, egoic self, to knowing ourselves as the love-based soul warriors we are behind the disguise.
You are truly a beloved child of Love. Our greater soul Self is made of Love and wants to share this with others. Our empathy helps us to see the person or situation from the big picture of Love. How we behave can come from that choice.
So in a challenging moment, pause before you act and ask yourself:
- What would Love with a capital L do?
- Am I a fearful little human or a mighty eternal Soul?
Your choice matters, and its effects will ripple throughout the Universe. As powerful creative Beings, the drops of our choices add up to the ocean of our collective world.
A friend shared this beautiful story:
“I was getting annoyed at the thought of my very extroverted cousin staying with me over Christmas and then thought, what would love with a capital L do? It would remember that we are her only family, she has had a tough time throughout her life, it would welcome her and make her feel wanted and loved.”
“The opposite of love is fear, but what is all-encompassing can have no opposite.”
