Love, the intangible and immeasurable stuff that transcends all and connects the universe. And Love notes, the gestures big or small, used by us everyday, more than we realize. The correct use of which, make all our relationships so much easier.
 
We express to others the way we like to be expressed to. Which means if you are the ‘touchy-feely’ type, you are likely to express your Love notes in a ‘touchy-feely’ way (Hugs, kisses, hugs! :)).
 
Love notes are not something only partners, lovers or close family members use for people they love.
 
Love notes are used as an expression from one living being to another.
 
Love notes could express ‘I see you’, ‘I am thinking of you’, ‘I want you to be supported’, ‘I love you’, ‘I like you’, ‘I adore you’, ‘I am grateful’, ‘I am with you’, ‘We are in this together’, ‘You matter’…
 
Love notes infuse a dose of care, concern, connection into our interactions and take many shapes:

• A friend leaving a cleaned pot and tea strainer for me to use every morning
• My boss getting me a bottle of water because I was having a packed day at work
• A surprise gift from my neighbor
• My husband sitting in an uncomfortable position for hours so I could have the perfect snuggle
• The stranger at the store holding my bags while I put on my raincoat
• A social media follower who reads and engages me on every blog I write
• My nephew blowing me a flying kiss as we Skype

Love notes don’t necessarily come to you only as words expressed by someone who loves you. They can be expressed by friends, acquaintances and strangers in a variety of ways.
 
We only need to be aware and stay in the moment to pick up all these Loves notes that are constantly showered on us. That will make all the difference in how we feel about our relationships and interactions. 

And more importantly, how we view the world and our place in it.

As Deliberate creators we know the best way to manifest something in our life, is to focus on what we want and act as if it’s already here. While many of us understand what needs to be done, some of us get distracted with things that can possibly go 'wrong' or just get impatient waiting for 'the stuff' to show up.

It got me thinking, is there one thing we can do that is easy, simple and effective for when we feel afraid?

Yes there is! You ready?
​
 
                                                     Immerse yourself.​
 
            Immerse yourself in the now so you forget to be afraid of the future.


Whatever it is that you are doing 'Now', do it being fully present. For me, immersing myself in the 'now' is blissful. I feel connected, complete, carefree... 

• Like the feeling of dipping yourself in a cool pool on a hot summers day
• Going outside and taking a deep breath, filling your lungs with fresh air
• Closing your eyes and listening to your favorite song, letting the music move you OR
• when you snuggle up under covers on a cold rainy day and enjoy the warmth you feel

 
All in the moment. Staying present. Soaking it in. Living the sensation.
​
Irrespective of the outcome, the experience and the joy of those moments is worth it. Because living that bliss beats a flustered state of mind on any given day.
