Love is an experience, a movement of energy that needs to flow – to be given and received. It is the universal energy that connects all things. It is expansive, creative, encouraging, generous. It is also nurturing, comforting, compassionate, tender. To fully respond as love in the world, we must first give and receive love with ourselves – our inner child, the conflicted teenager, the responsible parent, who we are now. As we learn to embrace every aspect of ourselves, we discover we can embrace the world. This embrace is both masculine (expansive) and feminine (nurturing). In the UK, Mother’s Day is 15th March. A day when we give thanks to all those who nurtured us, comforted us when we fell and hurt ourselves, listened to us when we were upset. Is there someone in your life, and not necessarily your mother, who gave you this motherly love, who you want to remember and thank? Take a moment today to do that. Take a moment to love them back and prepare to let them know how much you are grateful for them and the love they shared. Even if it was not always perfect, they were there for you. Draw them a card, send them some words, let them know on Mother’s Day how grateful you are. For as you give your love to them, you will feel and receive it in return. Have they passed on? Send them a beautiful, loving blessing of appreciation from your heart to their spirit – they will receive it. If you did not receive this nurturing love growing up, how can you give it to yourself now? Can you give yourself a hug, write yourself some loving words of appreciation and tenderness. We all have the quality of motherly love within us. Remember to give it to yourself today.
