live through love
Our unique potential and creativity can only be expressed in the present moment.
Living through our unique potential and creativity is to live through love.
‘The opposite of fear isn’t courage. The opposite of fear is love.’ - Elizabeth Gilbert / / ‘Believe nothing, no matter where you read it or who has said it, not even if I have said it, unless it agrees with your own reason and your own common sense.’— Buddha
My Life
The motivation & ‘purpose’ of my life was work hard, get good educational qualifications to get well paid jobs, a home & live a ‘good’ life. I followed the script & university, white-collar, office jobs, increasingly bigger homes & spending on travel & consumer goods. I was living the promised ‘good life’. Or was I? Cracks began to appear in the veneer of this ‘good life’. A part of me began to question the ‘script’ of my life. A feeling of emptiness began to appear. My life did not feel as nourishing as it seemingly used to.
Training as an NLP (neuro linguistic programming) practitioner & then Mindfulness practitioner began a new journey in my life. I began to become aware that another self was beginning to emerge. A self for which the prescribed ‘good life’ was inappropriate. This self took me on a journey of self-discovery. What I discovered was that another source of energy existed. An energy utterly different to that with which I had lived the prescribed ‘good life’.
‘Life – a love story’ is my sharing of what this self shared & continues to share with me. A sharing at its heart that there is another energy we can live through. Another self everybody can live as. A life lived through love.

“Living in the present moment is to reconnect with life energy inside each of us. To reconnect with our authentic selves. To truly live each moment as a human being.”
