Love! How many of us have place this gift on a shelf that we might admire it? How many of us have strenghtend this gift by giving it to another and passing it to our circle of friends?

AB, this is a terrible question, and I suppose you know it, don't you?

I strive to allways radiate that love. Sometimes though I have placed it on a shelf like a possession and admired its beauty. However the only way to make it shine is the polish of use. God gave it to us that we might show it.

Yes, but if you say you spread love it sounds like you are boasting, if you say you put it on the shelf you sound mean. Question is, do I want to boast or do I want to be mean.

I am not going to answer this in a personal way because like Andrea I do not want to seem boasting nor mean. However, at different times in all of our lives we have kept love up on the shelf admiring its beauty and we have shared it with friends, loved ones even perfect strangers. I don't feel that one can share it all the time constantly to do so would be too much tohandle I think.

Put love on a shelf, put love in a box, put love in a jar, rub it on your skin and hair

What if we view love not as something to possess but something to 'be'?

Removing the bonds of separationism...to not stand as separate from each other, to be as one... Then it is easy to see love as an all encompassing existance. No one possessing it, but rather being it. I find when I separate, I lose that constant stream...I disconnect from it. Thankyou AB, Sherrie, and Andrea... Reminders and prompts are so good for assisting the journey, this process.

Mr. AB: Now you are making a question that could make shake people who claims to have the strongest faith. Congratulations. Sometimes i forget that I have the duty to give back that love that was given to me for free. Thank you for reminding me. TLW
