In the Garden of Love

A walk in the garden of love suggests many reasons to become aware of the beauty of the plants there. Truth, beauty, and kindness all flourish and are well cared for in the garden of love. Many have come to walk there but do not see the beauty, hearing only their own judgements and feeling their own pain.

To see and feel the beauty there, you must first of all be still. Be quiet. Silence your inner voice that comments on the doings of everything. Listen for the voices and feelings of others. In this way, the beauty of love can be felt more keenly.

Walk slowly and quietly through the garden, watching and listening for the opportunity to serve another for in this way also will you fill the void in your heart with love. You must not think of your self yet it is your self you are serving when you see to the needs of another. No kindness passes through your hands that is not also meant for you.
Serve others and save your self from the isolation of fear and sorrow. You are meant to be loved, to feel love, and in turn, give love. Which comes first? Love must follow love. There is no beginning or end. There is only love. Begin with love and end with love.

The life you have is short. Take the time to love. Take the love offered you and give it back a hundred-fold. You are the part of the equation that multiplies love. Let it double and triple inside your heart until the blooms of love burst forth in joyous array.

Create your own garden of love and walk through it laughing, feeling the love surround you and hold you and make you whole.
