The joy of experiencing love


    Living a healthy and enjoyable life is enabled by the health of our body and the wisdom in our mind. It is very important to also be able to experience the feeling of love in our soul. There are many definitions of love. I consider spiritual love to be a feeling in your soul when you feel joy, peace and harmony in the moment. No matter how challenging a life has been we all know moments when we have experienced the feeling of love in our soul.

    The purpose of this document is to share thoughts on the importance of learning how to love and the importance of learning how to love is to building heaven on earth and facilitating human evolution. Before sharing intellectual thoughts on the methodology and challenge of learning how to love it’s important to consider how love manifests and how it nourishes our souls and the world we live in.

    A predominant theme in many religions in the world is the importance of loving ourselves and loving each other, love your neighbor as yourself. I suggest one way of recognizing spiritual love is the feeling one can experience soul to soul when thinking of, meeting or holding another.

    Art is an expression of the artist’s love. Our physical being creates art in many forms which enables us to share our love with others not just in the moment but over time. Perhaps the MonaLisa is an example. When one visits such a work of art one connects to the soul of who created it and can feel the love in its creation. Museums offer the opportunity to experience the artistic expression of the love of others. I believe the challenge we face is whether we are challenged open to feeling the love in our own soul as we view the art. It is the same for our ability to experience the love in nature. Nature is an expression of the love of the universe and when we immerse ourselves in it we can either feel the love it offers or not.

    There is an expression you know them by their fruit. I suggest this means you recognize people who are loving and caring by the feeling in your inner wisdom of the value of the actions they take. The challenge each of us has is to know the situations when and how it’s our call to care. We learn to love from our experiences.

    Learning how to love involves our ability to be aware of, experience, share and appreciate learning how to love in our daily journey. It includes being open to the feeling of love in our connection with nature such as experiencing sunset sitting by the ocean and the joy we feel in seeing a child succeed in learning a skill. Learning to love is not just the outcome of learning how to hear our inner wisdom when dealing with disharmony but also knowing when it is our call to care for each other and how to care. Love can be considered as an energy that we radiate to each other and the world around us and as we do, incrementally enrich the light of love in the world and facilitate the evolutionary becoming of humankind.
