Bet you thought by my title that Secrets was going to be my ending song of Mary's that I was going to write about? Nope, but I do listen to Secrets a lot. However hence, NO Secrets here ( I am corny I know). Love is Love I sing badly at random times, it's just one of those songs that gives me abundant amounts of mushy, hippie feelings that I feel good about sharing, openly as an introvert which confuses people into thinking I am an extrovert, ha ha. First of all, how adorable is it that a mother and daughter are singing about love together ? My mother doesn't enjoy music as much as I do but I can on a few special occasions remember hearing her sing and those are some pretty beautiful memories.
Without a doubt my favorite line and one that I have meditated to over and over again from Love Is Love is " see how love binds our broken wings" a lot of people don't agree with me on this and that is fine, but I believe love doesn't harm you or break you, it heals you, it protects you and IT STAYS. Death can not take it away, it holds that much strength so why do we believe when people leave or grow apart from us that they fell out of love? No, I think we mistook like for love in those instances. Love is unconditional. I would love to say honestly that everyone who says they love you now will always love you or that all the people who should love you in your family will because it's right and it's what you deserve. Well you do deserve it, I deserve it and the whole world does but no Life doesn't happen that way. People often like us instead of loving us and likes changes, just look at media for an example of that. People follow each other, like there posts for months, years and then one comment or simply cause they get bored they unfollow and never think of that person again. Sometimes people leave and come back. Sometimes we love people who only liked us. Love who you Love, don't give anyone else the power to deny you to love anyone else but know NOT all the people you love will love you back, I don't know why that is, but I know it's a fact. I love for life. If I call you a friend, If I say I love you I ain't giving up on you now or ever. When I say I love you I mean it.
"Lost hearts find a home" Is such a beautiful hopeful statement from Love Is Love. If the family we are not born into doesn't love us unconditionally then let our lost hearts roam until they find there new home. Don't beg for love, love does not demand. Don't rush love because love is timeless. Don't stay where love is not served, we do not deserve abuse, we deserve to be fed in all the glorious ways of acceptance. It will hurt when one you love does not love you back but love yourself more to find those who will love you and not ask you to change to keep their love. Love is Love is Love is Love. Not changing no matter how much we change. It stays while we grow into the beautiful rainbow bloom we were meant to grow into. Everyday of our life. Old petals fall away to sprout hold new blossoms on our tree of life.
