If love is central, it must come first.
If love is the beginning of all that is good, it must be the beginning of all that I do.
There is no beginning besides love, and without love, I cannot begin what is good.
Love silences fear, prevents it from corrupting what is about to begin.
Without love, imperfections must be hidden, and no light can emerge from them. When love is present, imperfections exist as texture and design, and light passes thru their flaws, revealing itself in unique form and function. Without love, truth is incomplete, and without complete truth, love is partial.
Human communication is always partial. Full understanding is limited to the totality of shared experiences. No two humans really understand each other. Thus, the love of another will always be limited.
The only potential for a whole and complete love is self-love.
To know one’s self.
The whole story.
The full understanding.
The best intentions.
The justified motives.
The thoughts.
The feelings.
The fully seen and accepted experience.
This is the only place where the fullest and most complete love can grow.
Here, privately protected, exists a sanctuary within the soul that was always intended to flourish as a Garden of Eden, a respite and repository of the deepest allowing, the fullest awareness, the most complete forgiveness, the greatest generosity. A fountain of life. The beginning of everything. A magnificent and fragrant, carefully nurtured love, unreachable by human hands.
This… is the temple of all that is good.
A sacred and holy place where you may go alone and immerse yourself in the most comforting grace, free of fear, full of trust.
Here is eternity.
Your purest rest.
To tend this Garden, you need only attend its presence. It makes no demand yet offers an invitation to transformation: the release of every soul disease laid upon you.
Love heals.
Love is the beginning.
To love first, is to begin well.
To love more, is to deepen your work.
Love first.
Love more.
Love yourself first.
Then love yourself more!
Love others first.
Then love them even more.
Do not seek comfort outside this love.
Seek this love first, and find comfort.
Love first.
And more.
