An Experiment In Love

The next time you find yourself feeling frustrated at the lack of love in your life.
Stop for a minute and try this little experimen.
Turn your attention inwards and begin to feel your own heart. Can you find some loving thoughts to think about yourself and others?

 What do you love about yourself find at least 3 things.

Now think of 3 things that you love about others in your life.

3Things you love about life itself.

3 Things you love about your country,

3 Things you love about this planet.

If you actually take the time to find the things you love you will be feeling more loving already.
We tend to find what we are looking for in life so why not make a practice of looking for LOVE.
Asking thr right Questions is really important, Ask your heart to search for the LOVE and you will always find it.

Resistance

Resisting things in our life is often difficult to recognise. However as soon as you ask yourself to list the things in your life that you want to change you become aware of what you are resisting.
 Wanting to change or control things and people in our lives is another way we resist our life.
How much time in our day do we 'waste' trying to change or 'fix ' people . Here in Ireland we spend a lot of time resisting the rain , does it work , has the rain stopped ? No ! And all our resisting does is build up frustration inside of us.
In releasing we remind ourselves to let go of resisting, and allow what is to be.
If this is too difficult we welcome the resistance and really allow ourselves to feel it fully. This is a form of releasing because at least we have stopped resisting our resistance.
If you make a list of the things( and people) in your life that you are wanting to change and let go of wanting to change and or fix them you will notice a change happening.
Firstly you will free up a lot of energy that was being used in resisting.
You will be more present in your life and relationships which will allow you to enjoy your life more fully.
  When someone is trying to control us, we all feel it, ether consciously or subconsciously and we don't like it, it makes us want get away from that person. People feel it from us when we are trying to change or fix them and they don't like it either. When we release our wanting to control and stop doing it our relationships really blossom.

Reflections

More and more I realising that this world works a bit like is a mirror. 

It shows us ourselves, it does this through our relationships, when we

 are constantly coming up against difficulties it is reminding us to turn

 inward and reflect on what we are radiating out into our world. 

I have noticed that when I Let Go of my negative feelings and take the 

time to nourish my good hearted feelings my world reflects goodness

 back to me. 

When I catch myself feeling stressed or worried I remind myself to 

Let Go even for a moment.  

To breathe in LOVE on each breath, 

Try this now for a few moments ( even if you are not stressed )

Notice how good it feels to Breathe in Love. 

Love is all around and when we remember to breathe it in we find it reflected out there in our world. 

An Mullach Mór County Sligo

       
                Mullaghmore was a great stop,

 

              We were not the only ones to take advantage of the dry spell,

             The rain clouds rolled in,

              And were ignored,

             We walked all the way to the rocks,

                And watched the crashing waves,

            Enjoying the last views,

         
        Of An Mullach Mór before turning for the journey home.

Derry And Letterkenny

         The Peace Bridge across the river Foyle.

       Late evening walk on  Derry's Walls

   Looking down on 'The Bogside'.

      Sun set view from the Peace Bridge.

  
    Letterkenny,




   

                Main street full of activity,

             Narrow streets,

         And hills reminding me of home.

Glenveagh National Park

   A path winds along the shore of Lough Veagh,

To the Glenveagh Castle

The Kitchen Garden is stunning,

Full of colour and sweet scents,

A path from the garden leads high up above the castle.

      Where the views are sublime.

Donegal Town To Killybegs

 We were planning to go to Árainn Mhór today  but even as we passed by the Owenea River I was becoming seduced by the landscape.

                   The turf was being cut,

                And stood up to dry.

                    On to Dungloe,

                       And it's view of the sea.

                There are no words to describe the  views along the
                      drive from Ardara to Gleann Cholm Cille.

                       And Benbulben across Donegal Bay.

              Killybegs was a fitting resting spot in the late evening.
