"lovewords" is my remembrance of myself. It is the way in which I live according to my belief that simultaenously I am part of and all of The Universe, living this human life to experience my own magnificence. I am a part of the diviity of all creation...we all are. By speaking words from a place called love, I affirm all that I am and all that I know. I affirm all that others are and all that they know. By speaking words from a place called love we can defeat fear. By speaking from a place called love we can truly be ourselves--the physical embodiment of the divine creative force that is life. Love is not a fantasy, a luxury, or a gift. Love is a birthright, a driving force, a pure thing. Love is my choice. THE AFFECTATION - OVEROMING SHAME AND REMOVING THE MASK
