Love Is The Victory I Seek

More often than not being a Sagittarius (among other things) I think brute force and painful examination can do anything...and-I-do-mean-ANYTHING. When I say brute force I mean hitting a subject head on and not letting go till its solved. But the older (wiser and more gorgeous..LOL) I get and the more I allow myself to experience life through others eyes I now see differently.

When we are allowed the space to create love has the opportunity to bloom. When we are allowed the space to grieve love again has the opportunity to bloom. When we allow others and ourselves to walk through the hell of pain and misery love has the opportunity to bloom. For love is the medicine that heals all wounds. I don't think I could spend a day not believing that fully. When we allow ourselves and others our journeys then we have allowed a victory above all. The victory of LOVE!

My name is Veronica and that means "bringer of victory". I long wondered what that meant if anything. I think I might now know that to bring victory you have to allow for the passage of time to let it flow to you...to attack it only blinds you. You can't see it all if your right in it's face right? It's like holding your hand to your face only when you pull it away slowly does the picture behind it unfold. When I step back and breathe I allow myself to see it all.

In-Love & Gratitude,

Veronica

A Lesson In Compassion

"In the award-winning documentary Children Full of Life, a fourth-grade class in a primary school in Kanazawa, northwest of Tokyo, learn lessons about compassion from their homeroom teacher, Toshiro Kanamori. He instructs each to write their true inner feelings in a letter, and read it aloud in front of the class. By sharing their lives, the children begin to realize the importance of caring for their classmates."

Get out your tissues...unless you have a heart of steel you will cry. I myself balled almost the whole way through. And not just at what was sad, but at the joy, the defense of friends, the teachers love and strong discipline, the bond that they created and at the pure love they all had for each other and themselves. Would if this teacher could apply his knowledge to every teacher on the planet...starting at pre-school, WOW I can only imagine!!!
