Word of the Week

I introduced the Word of the Week to help us improve our working knowledge of the English language. Your part if you choose to participate is to be aware of and use each word for the entire week whenever the opportunity presents itself. This way we will all increase our vocabulary and our knowledge of the English language supplying us with a very effective tool to utilize on our road to success.

te·mer·i·ty /təˈmerəti/ noun

the quality of being confident and unafraid of danger or punishment.

From a poem entitled “It’s No Surprise”

“Eyes exuding sincerity,

understanding, temerity,

is why I love you.”

True Love

Had a very interesting email conversation with a friend the other day about what love is. I seemed to hit a nerve when I suggested true love is not an emotion but a state of being. The immediate response was; “How can you say that?” “We’ll talk!”

I explained True Love is accepting things and people as they are in the moment without judgment or expectation.

In response I received the full blown Wikipedia definition of love which is totally based on the physical human definition dealing with emotion and feeling.

Feelings and emotions are born out of love but they are not love in and of its self. Yes love is all of these things yet is none of them. For emotions; feelings can change with the seasons where as True Love remains the same forever, is never changing. True Love does not play favorites. It gives equally to all and expects nothing in return. True Love is in a constant state of giving according to what we are able to receive. True Love is a principle, the root cause of all that is good.

Love cannot be seen, heard nor grasped. It just is, always has been, and always will be.
God is Love.

Challenge yourself this week, meditating on this word Love. Get beyond the surface of emotion and feelings to discover what True Love is and how you may raise your thoughts, thereby your quality of life through this new awareness.
