Love is a word of vast potential and yet few ever explore the totality or the depths of this simple four letter word. Yes... there have been odes, poems, sonnets, stories, tales, and countless other sorts of writings about it as well as pictures, sculptures, songs and anything else a human can think of to express their vision or understanding of love.

BUT... do any of these methods truly depict Love?

Love is not as simple as it may seem. Ask someone with a broken heart. Ask a mother. Ask a father. Ask a true friend.

Love has many levels... many layers.

There is the maternal love of a mother for a child which is always there regardless of what the child looks like, does, or says. There are even levels of the maternal love. Some mothers may seem distant or even cruel... yet they have within them a spark which would do anything for their child to protect them if they felt it necessary. A truly wise mother also knows when it is time to release that child so he or she may find their own wings and fly.

The paternal love is very similar and yet it doesn't always seem to have the depth which the maternal love can touch. It seems a bit more distant and yet it is as strong as the maternal ties when it is true.

(A phenomena which seems prevalent in society as well as in nature is that the paternal side does not need the depth that the maternal side does because they are merely there to help continue the survival of the species and once achieved, it is no longer necessary to be as involved. A state which is all too rampant in human society... a but like hormones or testosterone levels gone wild. If each of the fathers truly cared and loved each child, then many of the problems experienced today... blind anger, rage, frustration, emptiness, and feelings of being lost with no direction, MIGHT be alleviated.

A Utopian Goal: A society where both parents truly share and care for each of their offspring equally and without limitations... where the children can be children while they are young and know that love blankets them at all times. THEN... the children teach and spread the same feelings and responsibilities as they had while growing up to their own offspring, spreading the peaceful circle ever wider and wider until the angers, frustrations, and manipulations of the current societies are but shadows of the past or impossible nightmares.)

There is the first love of childhood... the puppy love... where the object of one's affections has no flaws and can do no wrong. The beloved one is perfect in every way and is often out of reach... yet it doesn't matter. It is the most innocent and purest of the understandable loves in society today and yet it is often dismissed as childish or even amusing. The puppy love is aptly named and is a true love... ask anyone who has had a new puppy become attached to them. The puppy follows them, is overjoyed to see them after they have been gone and they don't even care how badly they are treated... they still carry the adoration in their eyes. They are forgiveness and love all rolled into one furry little bundle.

First loves are a special kind of love as well. They are the ones which will never be forgotten and many times have the "what would have happened if..." attached to them. First loves are also symphonies of innocence where little else matters about the one being loved except that they are loved.

The physical love is more of a hormonal or species lust rather than a true love, being mostly shallow and easily forgotten once completed and yet, many confuse this type of lust for love and pine for that which really isn't there. This type of love seems also to hold sway in society today, particularly amongst the male population simply because people just do not know or understand true love.

There are those who DO find that elusive love... a true love... where they place the needs and the wants of the one loved before their own needs and wants and are happy to do so. This is a step toward the ultimate love... a Universal Love.

The Universal Love energies are coming forward now and more people are touching it... marveling in the purity and intensity of it. This love is not just for one person, though it can be one person who triggers it. It is for all who enter into one's circle, all who pass through that circle and even for those who do not. It is a higher and more spiritual energy which is one of the next steps of mankind's evolution. Tapping into or touching this energy is euphoric. It is a natural high and is also the basis of healing anything in anyone.

People equate this type of love to the love of God or love from God and they are right, for what is God but the Universe?

Philosophers over the years have debated. Religions have spouted various viewpoints with the conviction that their way is the only way and that their God is the one true God when, in truth... their God is the same as the God or Gods/Goddesses of any other religion... simply another facet or face of the same energy.

If we could all experience the true depth of love emanating from the Universal One, we would KNOW it is true.

Touching the Soul of another and feeling the Universal Love which flows through that connection is a life shaking experience... it is a life awakening experience. It removes all doubts or fears that there is more than just this physical life... it allows one to know.

Yes... there are so many layers and levels to Love... one would never truly be able to explore it fully and yet... without at least a few of these levels and layers, life would not seem worth living.

Share the Love energies from within to any and all who come into your circle each day and see how quickly things begin to happen. Love is the basis of all progress.

Love heals all.

(Thank-you, my friend, for allowing me to touch your soul and feel the Universal Love energy flow through you. Words cannot describe the feeling of peace, contentment and fulfillment which entered into my life once we touched soul to soul. May this beauty never fade from my heart and may I be able to make others aware of this beauty which awaits them if they only open to receive it.)

UNIVERSAL LOVE PRAYER

(If no one ever sees this, it matters not. Right now, I write this to express the feelings which I did not know or believe I carried within me any longer. The bliss... brings tears of joy... the joy... brings peace of mind... the peace of mind... brings inspiration... and inspiration brings forth the path from which I have strayed... my life's purpose... my soul's purpose.

It is not only my goal but it is the ultimate goal of everyone, no matter which path or method they choose to use in this lifetime.

We are here to learn true love... not the physical passions which most associate with the word, but the kind of love which was described above... a pure Universal Love with compassion for all.

In finding it, I must share it through the beauty of my creations, my writings, my readings.

It is shared now through this personal prayer which, I hope, inspires others, helps others, and awakens others in this time of shifting needs and awareness.)

Please, dear Lord... allow me to maintain and remember this lesson of Unconditional Love so I may complete the tasks set before me.

I have many Earth Angels I wish to thank and, in turn, assist who have been so kind and supportive to me while I was searching to find this path.

Please allow me the physical means in this world at this time to do it and to also spread the wonderful energies You have allowed me to feel to those others I have yet to meet or those I have met who need them.

Give me the knowledge and the vision to receive the monetary abundance to clear all old physical debts and be able to function freely in this physical world.

Spiritually, I know now that I have everything I need but I am based in a physical realm where money is the basis of life in these social settings.

I am humbled to truly know how low and how depressing finding one's path can be…may I now be able to aide others through their times of darkness and lack as others have aided me.

Cleanse me and allow me to see what needs to be done. Give me the strength, the energy, and the willpower to follow through.

All this I pray and share in a way that is now most common... writing on the computer.

Amen and so it is said and so it is done.
