Outreach Opportunity! Finding love in all the right places!

This I do know. Being an observer of our own life is only possible when we give up victimhood. Living in the flow allows us take every opportunity to learn and learn some more. What a fun day.

We went to the Mall. We wore our Free Hugs t-shirts and WE LEARNED more about real love and ourselves.

Each hug or rejection of hug gave us a deeper understanding about ourselves and how we operate in the world. It gave us an opportunity to discuss it with each step we took and each hug we gave.


We saw that within ourselves there is an innate fear of rejection, a sense of unworthiness. What if someone says no? Is it really about them or about me? Everyone who joined in the exercise was comfortable at different levels to reach their arms open and approach someone.

Those who were fuller found it easier because we did encounter rejection over and over.

Then we began to see how open people were and excited to get hugs, as well as people very closed off and could not possibly let anyone in. What a great lesson that it really wasn't about us.

So we likened it to our real love practice in our own life. All we can do it tell the truth "we are real lovers", open our arms to hugs and see who will step up and accept us for who we are.

Some will, some won't, so what?

There is one thing I know to be true. If we allow life to teach us, the lessons are there everyday. You MUST take action, have faith and stretch yourself out of your comfort zones. Live life. It is here to help you become all that you were meant to be.


If you can get out of the swirling mess of fear and confusion, there are lessons everywhere. It just gets better and better.

Join us next time in our outreach opportunity. What would you learn about yourself?
We love you.

Thanks to all who came out and hugged the world today with me. (Christina, Donna and Gali) There is nowhere to go but up when you practice with intension to "be loving". It's miraculous!
Love,
Sharon Winningham From my heart............

CHAPTER THREE by Greg Baer

CHAPTER THREE THE THIRD PRINCIPLE OF PARENTING When I’m Angry, I’m Wrong Because of their age and inexperience, children are naturally inconvenient in so many ways: • They’re always spilling stuff, falling down, making messes, and getting involved in all manner of “accidents.” • When they get ready for school, clean their rooms, prepare for bed time, or do anything else involving a time limit, they move at a slow and erratic pace rarely compatible with our own schedules. • They’re often unable to perform even the simplest tasks without help or supervision. • They incessantly make unnecessary noises in a wide range of both volume and pitch. • Frequently they are unable to clearly communicate their needs. • When they do express their needs, they are often insistent and demanding. They have no patience. • Everything they do seems to cost money. When we don’t feel sufficiently loved ourselves, these innumerable inconveniences often become more tha...

GUT-WRENCHING LOVE

  Gut- Wrenching Love   I just listened to Jason Mraz’s song “Love is Still the Answer”.   I cried.   My heart wept and my eyes did a lot of leaking.   My heart is open wide.     And I remembered love.   Big Love.    I witnessed in the video all kinds of crazy, romantic, sexy, creative God-like love of beaches, nature, clouds, baby’s feet, sharing, a wedding, Gay love, Straight love, love of our children, painting, yoga, music, dancing, playfulness, ice-skating, biking, ballet, fireworks , old age love…well, you get the gist.   You should watch.   You too will cry and remember that love is still the answer.   I am here to share that there was a moment in my life when I chose a different kind of love.   It’s the kind of love that is gut wrenching.   It’s the kind of love that you have to dig down deep into your worn torn heart and find the courage to do the right thing, to choose love.   November befo...

Telling the truth

Why is it so important to tell the truth about ourselves? As I travel and share real love with folks, I realize that the toughest thing we can do is tell the truth. We have become so ritualized and formatted to protect ourselves that we live in the lies. We cannot see them at all. The world has told us (failed us) that if we tell the truth we will be shunned, turned away, unliked or worse unloved. The world has taught us to KNOW this on a very deep level. Almost intuitively we know that we cannot be loved for who we are. So we sit with a dilemma. We are addicted to a facade. We don't even know that survival has become the order of the day. We have these behaviors that guarantee our own demise. What is it that we are doing? When we don't tell the truth about who we really are we cannot find those gold nuggets, those people who can love us for the good, bad and ugly of who we are. If the 3 things we need to be happy are: be loved, be loving and be responsible, then how can we eve...
