Some people live in their egos and the only way you can relate to them is by living in your ego. You have to meet them in the gutter and you immediately feel the muck on you. Love is the opposite of the ego. Trying to live in a space of love is healthier and it feels better and lighter. Know who you are...be you and shine! ✨ A lickle balance haffi deh deh still cuz we nah be nobody doormat! #MeanMugWithLove 😁 #Ego #Love #theanswerislove #loveisthekey #fixitwithlove #killdemwidlove #lessonsfromMaat (at Kingston, Jamaica) https://www.instagram.com/p/BtgKGBEhUOQ/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1b4whe7l9puxv
When children enter foster care there are labels that society automatically imposes upon them that practically sentence these children to socially imposed pre determined destinies beyond their control. It is due to these labels that many of these children age out of the system without family, turn to drugs, end up homeless, or in prison.
Because of these labels, quality foster homes are in short supply and our overburdened system has to scrape the bottom of the barrel to find homes. There are times our kids end up in worse homes than those they were taken from. Our society fails to address the trauma histories of these youth and often expect adult behaviors from those who never really had a childhood. Foster parents are poorly educated, equipped, or supported.
We have to remember that these children have endured more trauma than most will see in their lifetimes. We have to remember that they are victims through no fault of their own. We must remember that they are people who are worthy of love, guidance, and support. We must remember what God has called us to do. Love is commanded. Love is deserved. Love is the answer.
Beauty is everywhere all the time. We just fail to see it because we’re too busy looking at our phones, running around like crazy, being busy with “life.” Seeing the beauty around you and creating beauty through love. This is life. That’s it. No running around needed. Beauty is not just visual beauty, it’s beauty within. You can find it and create it in any moment. When you ask your Uber driver how he is. Or when I left a message to a client of mine and the Uber driver was listening and told me that his girlfriend had serious depression and I used the rest of the ride to tell him how he can best help her. And then I gave him my contact if he had any questions. You can create beauty through love in any moment. And what you’ll feel and get in return is more love and that’s what life is about. That’s what you’re here for. To love yourself so you can love others and they can love themselves more and then there’s beauty everywhere. That’s all we have you do. Instead we’re running around like headless chickens chasing after stuff that doesn’t matter and won’t give you what you’re really craving: love. So wake up and start loving yourself and you’ll receive so much love in return that you’ll be flying higher than you ever have. And in the process you’ll change the world. . #love #beauty #selflove #wakingup #theanswerislove #awakening #gratitude #yearning #peace #presence (at McDowell Mountains) https://www.instagram.com/p/B8RP3cfnYqr/?igshid=zqekqrlzb8xi
The simplicity of Love is it chooses to endure all things every single time. It may sacrifice your pride. But what's more important is touching a soul and pointing them towards Jesus Christ. Be the light this world needs. Give the gift of love. God shows us the perfect example. But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Romans 5:8 NIV #prayrior #TheAnswerIsLove https://www.instagram.com/p/B6XkC72lKXL/?igshid=pdtkz28jm58z
