Thoughtful Thursday

by Lynda Spirit Baptiste

 

This week at Thoughtful Thursdays we are giving the single men an opportunity to help us learn about LOVATIONSHIPS! As always, I believe you will find it Love-sightful, Love-Enlightening and Loveshipfull and full of Learning Keys!

 

You know as I grow and continue this wonderful work on LOVATIONSHIPS I have a growing concern that the word “LOVE” does not become a slang word or worse, a cliché. It is my opinion that the word love is not a word to simply Say; it is a term we use to give expression to the innermost being of ourselves. (k) Love is who you are. Love is a movement. You are the action of love. Love is a flowing movement. It is in you because it is you. If you allow yourself to become still enough you can experience the love that is inside of you. If you are not used to this experience, try this. (k) Get yourself to be still and mentally quiet. Then ask your inner self to reveal to you your love inside. It will pop up for you. It will tend to feel like a shot of adrenalin and then it will fleet away almost as fast as it came. Sort of like a flicker, you thought you saw but then it disappeared and you were no longer sure you saw it. Don’t despair and don’t doubt the feeling. You can do it again and experience the same thing. The more you practice this the more you will bring the love you are into filling you up from the inside source until it also covers the outside of you. It is then available for you to wear every day. I hope you will do this until this happens for you because then we can have conversations about how you now find that you posses a magnificent personal power and you create magic in your life. I am excited for you and cannot wait to have that conversation with you.

How To Ignite Your Love Fire and Keep It HOT!

You may or may not know these articles are part of my “Learning Key Series”. Learning Keys are my way of wanting you to have a heartfelt learning experience as you are reading. Every time there is a (k) symbol in front of a sentence that is your indication, there is an intention for you to take action or to feel a point that may be relative to your inner growth.
You may recall in my last article I mentioned that I had not been in a relationship for many years. I was very unsure about how to even approach showing I was available for a relationship. I was more than nervous about how to engage or initiate my interest. Then I did what I do…seek knowledge. I went to people who I thought may have my best interest at heart and said “Help!” Well this process began to shore up my new found confidence. However, what I did not know was that I was already in love and certainly, I did not want that to be the first thing gushing out of me with a total stranger. Again, I did not realize I was already head over heels in love. Since I was already there, in retrospect, it actually took me all the way up until today, to see that he was equally committed to me.

What joyful fun it is today! Valentines Day falls on Thoughtful Thursday, right in time for my topic on Romance. Certainly, on this special day love, happiness and romance are the heightened thoughts and feelings in the minds and hearts of many of us. Equally exciting, it is also the day “My Darling” and I honor the day of our first date by acknowledging our “Weekiversary”. I love you Darling!

Valentine’s Day is recognized internationally as the one day of the year you acknowledge and celebrate the wonderful special person you love in your life or that you want in your life. This is the one day that we seek clarity on “how to” express our emotions. I imagine if our feelings could be measured; that on this very day many people are at the height of being in touch with every emotion they are experiencing more that any other day of the year. Most especially they are relating to their feelings of love, wanting to be loved or not being loved. Most likely their feelings run the gamut between sheer ecstasy and the saddest of sad. All of these emotions because of their reaction to an international holiday and how they feel they should be treated or not treated on this particular day. It seems as if this day really causes people to have their hearts exposed and their feelings open and even vulnerable. And sadly, many people seem to judge themselves by the measure of how others surrounding them and may be experiencing their own Valentine’s Day.

This is really a sign of how connected we all are at the heart level even though we may not have recognized how much this is true.

If you followed my two previous articles perhaps you clearly understand how I feel about romance as well. Romance, Happiness, and Love must be inside of YOU for there to be the ideal partnership in your life to share the whirlwind excitement of what this day is all about. Please don’t get me wrong. I want everyone to experience this day of love everyday. However unless there really is a Cupid who shot you with his magical bow, you have to BE the Arrow. Learn how to romance yourself on the inside and you will attract your perfect partner who is looking to romance you on the outside, but from the deepest part of their inside. This is sometimes referred to as a “Match made in heaven”. You will not just have romance for the sake of what appears to be romance in the outer uninvolved world or for the perception of others.

For a number of years now, I have had a vision of starting an international holiday. This holiday would have a unique twist, just like my “Weekiversary”. My dream is that this holiday would be celebrated everyday. A Daily International Celebration called “LOVEDAY”. The concept would promote a worldwide consciousness of love. LOVEDAY would cause people to be aware that they have amazing hearts. Also show that the power within their hearts could create a major shift to heal the world. It would provide a daily opportunity to give you more time to reflect on you and what you have to contribute to others. I am looking forward to your comments (in the comment box) to let me know what you think and feel about LOVEDAY.

You deserve the best you in your life! You are beautiful, with an abundance of love. Love is simply being who you truly are, allowing the movement of you to flow into your natural space, so you can have life reflect the experience of who you are back to you. You matter, you are a gift and you are love. Love all that you are. You are loved, receive this abundance in its entirely as you are blessed in Every Moment of your life. And I ask you to open your heart to the dance of this truth. As a result of embracing yourself and relaxing into this truth more blessings will rapidly flow to you.

As an empowering, experiential Law of Attraction Practitioner it is my mission to help you receive the “more your want in your life” It has been my direct experience to know that if we focus on a thing more, rather than less, in our life…that is what we create. Also, it is my intention to have you learn to listen more to the small still voice within you that would confirm that you are love and that truth will guide you to your perfect loving man or woman and the love life of your dreams.

Next week Thoughtful Thursday will begin featuring our Learning Key Series entitled “NOT RECOMMEDED BY EXPERTS”. We will feature real soul-lu-tions to real lov-ation-ships from real people who have worked on “How To” Ignite the Love Fire and Keep It Hot. As for myself, after not having been in a lovationship for many years until I met my soul mate, I was like most completely at a loss to know how to engage to create some interaction even for a simple introduction in current times. So I began seeking information and advice from people. This is how I uncovered what was really missing which sent me on my current path. There was a huge need for Love Advice…how to get love started and keep it burning. I was getting relationship advice and I discovered there was a lot of that and way too varied to find a fit. So I went seeking Everlasting Love advice and found good stuff. I think it might be valuable to you too, so until next Thoughtful Thursday at OnStage...

I love you,

Happy Valentines Day

Since this series of articles are the first of their kind let me introduce you to Learning Keys. Learning Keys are my way of wanting you to have a heartfelt learning experience as you are reading. Every time there is a symbol in front of or color added to a sentence that is your indication there is an intention for you to take action or to feel a point that may be relative to your inner growth.

Learning Key #1

Kindly read this article while you simultaneously do something special that reminds you that happiness is already inside of your heart and all you have to do is tickle it out. Remember a sunshiny day, a baby’s laughter, a friend’s kindness, a peaceful heart.

Learning to love you is the first step for creating a happy you. And gratitude is key to activating happiness.

Our mission is for you to own your feelings of happiness and wear them all the time.

Are you ready to begin? On a scale of 1-10 with 10 being the highest, how ready are you to own your feelings of happiness? Are you ready to be at peace with being happy?

Alright, get Set.

And Let’s Go!

Happiness is an action; a movement you have to take to allow yourself, to feel. No cheating, you have to feel, deliberately. Stop this very moment and check in with your feelings. What do you feel right now? How often do you do this check doing the day? I venture to say perhaps not very often. That most likely means your feelings are running your life and you have not been aware of it so much. And so, if that is the case... good. Because now you can jump right in the driver’s seat and redirect the movements of your feelings and you can drive them to the destination of your choice. I can promise you if you are willing to do the driving I can guide you directly onto the highway where everyday miracles occur.

Still set? Let’s Go.

First, go within to find out where those feelings of happiness are located. Okay now start pulling them out. Write them down as you find them. Let’s see. There is: I woke up today, I am healthy, I am alive, I can feel my feelings, it is a beautiful day, I am proud of myself. Now that you have your feelings written down and AS MORE happy feelings come up for you, write them down also. Now that you have pulled THOSE BEAUTIFUL, warm, attractive delicious, fabulous, peaceful, glorious, positive feelings out of their inner closet, put them on. Unlike your daily wardrobe, which you feel compelled to change often, wear these feelings continuously. You will find they cause your life to be effortless and miraculous. Constantly make the decision to choose to be clothed in your positive feelings. Wear them until you are comfortable with them and until you feel happy all the time.

You cannot leave the matter of your happiness to just “something” when it shows up or if it shows up. You cannot leave your happiness to someone when and if they happen to come along. Those instances or individuals that are very much outside of yourself may and most likely will add moments of happiness to you. But they are not “the happiness” that ensures that you are happy. This is somehow what many of us are led to believe. And I believe it is the reason so many of us are unhappy most of the time.

Learning to love you is the first step for creating a happy you (See Thoughtful Thursday-The Greatest Love of All Is To Be True To You). And like loving you, happiness is an inside job that only you can do for you.

So yes, you have to make the movement to be happy. Now let me be your guide to the miracles that make the movement so WORTHWHILE BY telling you a secret--Happiness is magic. I knew I needed evidence to support what I wanted to share with you about how happiness creates magic in your life. Last weekend while looking for fresh ginger in MoM’s Market, I was gazing the eye level bins for the spicy little root when my peripheral vision caught a glimpse of this effervescent soul. I turned to look with greater clarity and was “Wowed” by this small framed woman, whose spirit was standing about twenty feet tall. Her eyes were dancing. Her smile was radiant and she was simply beaming. I asked her what was causing her to be so happy. She said, “You know it is God girl.” I said, “Yes I do!” We continued chatting like two people who knew each other for a life time. She helped me locate the ginger and helped me separate the pressed plastic bag to place it in. I finally took a good look at her and realized she was wearing a black and white button with my favorite word on it. I was suddenly simply blown away. I asked Katherine, “Where did you get that button?” She said, “I have them made. Would you like it?” and before I could respond she took it off and was pinning it on my coat asking if I would promise to wear it. I said everywhere I go and happily. Katherine’s button to me says, “Love is IMPORTANT.” I LOVE HER, and I love my pin. Would you agree with me that Katherine and her appearance in my life at that exact moment and her wonderful gift to me were all a MIRACLE? I call that a miracle. It is my intention that your movement into happiness will CREATE what I call a miracle and my intention for you is for you to have a miracle in your life EVERYDAY.

I love you,
