There's No Love In Mad!

From the mouth of babes today -- this morning my son was giving me a hard time about getting ready for school. All I wanted him to do was to take off his clothes - that's it. But noooooo, he just couldn't do it. So after many frustrating minutes, I got angry. This is when he asked - what does adore mean? I told him is that it's when a person really loves another person. He says - you don't adore me mom. Yes I do I say -- I love you very much. But right now you are making me mad. Mom -- there's no love in mad. And that was that. I told him he was correct - there isn't. I took a deep breath and got him ready for school.

So there you go - food for thought -- there's no love in mad.

This has made me reflect today on how mad and frustrated I can get with people. I don't fly off the handle like I did when I was younger. But I can still get pretty darn mad -- and I hold onto that mad like it is mine and mine alone. I refuse to let it go and I refuse to let my guard down. Why? Because I'm fearful of being hurt, angered, frustrated, disappointed -- etc...again. Being angry takes a lot of energy and resource. Neither which I feel like expending unnecessarily any more.

There's no love in mad.

And love doesn't take that much energy or resources as it is already inside of us - already part of us. All we have to do is express it.

I thought about this when I went into today's session. I was greeted by my guide, Sir Edward, whom I haven't heard from in a long while. Dressed very elegantly in a violet tunic/pants and with a crown on his head -- he asked me how I was doing. I told him I guess not well or you wouldn't be here -- he laughed. Next thing I know is that we are on top of a castle turret - looking out over a vast lake. He tells me to look at the center of the lake - on the island. I do and I can see a cat there. He's waking around -- then lounging -- walking about again. Edward asks me if the cat is fearful. I tell him that I would think he would be. He asks - why? Because he's on a small island in the center of a lake - that's why. How's he going to eat -- how's he going to get off the island? Edward has me watch the island again - I see a bird land and the cat kills it - eats it. Sir Edward goes on to say that the cat is not fearful because he has all that he needs on that island at that moment. When the time is right, the lake will freeze over and the cat will come back to the mainland - if he chooses. This is something that the cat knows. There is no fear - because the unknown is known.

And this means to me......

What this means to you is that you should be aware of what you have and not be fearful of what has not come to past -- yet -- for what is unknown is known by you. This is without thinking it to death. You and Bill over-think things too much -- far too much. You would both be further along if you would just trust that you know what you know and when there is more, you will be shown more. Be content.

And Sir Edward was gone.

There's no love in mad.

Have a good day....
