Thoughts processed in a morning
Sitting on the couch, debating whether or not to get up and take a shower now or eat some breakfast first. Sweetie just bolted out the door, late to some breakfast meeting. The dogs are eyeing me expectantly with stuffed toys in their jaws. The house is quiet except for the ticking of puppy nails on the hardwood floor and the steady drone of the living room light timer. I know I’ll be at work until 9:00pm tonight so I’m not in any particular hurry to disturb this moment of morning solitude.
I’ve been pondering an interesting theory on the nature of love. I have decided, that on the days I have woken up and felt completely fulfilled with love and joy and peace, those are the days that someone who loves me has been sending loving thoughts to me. They top off my tanks & I spend the entire day sharing that love around. The days I wake up feeling drained and empty are the days that I’ve sent out all my love & need a refill. Maybe we should all have gauges like our cars – indicating whether we’re Empty or Full. Then, like my father always advised, we’d never let our tanks get lower than Halfway.

I’m not sure we can truly empty ourselves by giving love. However I think we can become deleted because 1) people are draining us of energy (consciously or unconsciously) and 2) we are not open to the flow of universal love which is there/here as a constant source of replenishment. I rediscovered this in April when I started my morning meditation by clearing any foggy or grey energy from my field and then focusing on bringing the light of the sun into my solar plexus and allowing it to fill me completely. What a perfect way to begin the day (no matter HOW you wake up.)
