Don't call it Love
Shifting CARE check deliveries to Tuesdays!
Hi CARE friend,
How are YOU today?
Did something big unfold for you this week—around or within you?
Did something small shift, softened, left or came back?
Can we take a minute to really tune in, to lean into what’s going on beneath our skin, to deeply listen to our bodies, to amplify the voice of our own fiery heart?
And can you let (I did write let) yourself INHALE, and RECEIVE the abundant support that we became so disconnected from when we misguidedly disenchanted the world?
It looks like moving this love letter delivery to Fridays was not working for most of you, so the next full CARE check will be delivered to your inbox this Tuesday and then on Tuesdays going forward.Still, today, I wanted to share some caring energy with you: so here are the lyrics of my latest song: DON’T CALL IT LOVE.
Hope they will feel like a hug to your heart…
Don’t Call It Love
Don't call it love
If it's not grounded in your bones
Don't call it awe
If you can't see Life in these stones
Don't call it love
If you won't surrender to your art
Don't call it awe
If that's not the song of your heart
.
Don't call it love
If your fear is casting the spell
Don't call it awe
If it's not filling up your well
That well of love
Because that's what the world needs
The awe of love
True love that awakens and heals
.
Don't call it love
If you can call it any other name
Don't call it awe
If it's not extraordinary magic or magically mundane
Don't call it love
Because that word is a sacred place
A place of awe
To surrender the urges to race
After fake love
That only gives or only takes
Like manufactured awe
That can't fortify what it breaks
.
Don't call it love
If it's not born from the essence
The essence we call awe
When we fall back into presence
Back into love
With that is and more
Back into awe
For what we get to live for
.
Don't call it love
But do call on Love for answers
And please follow Awe
Until she turns all soldiers back into dancers
And here’s my invitation for you today and in preparation for next week’s CARE check:
What does love mean to YOU?
And even more importantly what does RECEIVING Love mean to you?
Sending you kindness, love and warmth—knowing that all three are born in the sacred darkness that we do not fear anymore.
