Do not stop. Love more. Love harder. Love boundlessly. Do not surrender to the wave of hopelessness that is rising within you. That grief, let it breathe. Give it space. Take your time. Let if flow out of you and fill the streets and run into the rivers and out to the sea. That grief is your humanity, your deep and intense love for one another, your compass that is so full of injustice that the tears must flow. Grieve, and love. Love more.
In the vibration of love, we are the balance the world needs. And it is is imperative that we hold the line. Everyday that we wake up and find our center, and are grounded in our strong hearts, we are holding a vibrational field that is the steadiness during these shifting times. The rising tide of chaos is here. The sorting process has begun. It is part of the cycle we are in. Eris is risen. We must hold the line. Hold the frequency of love through it all.
One basic thing that we all must do now is hold our center, to ground deeply into ourselves so that we can maintain this frequency. We must take care of ourselves so that we can take care of others. Meditate, eat well, stay hydrated, get enough sleep, move your body, nourish your physical body and your energy body, hold love. Be love.
Secondly, remember that Love is also an action. It means showing up when someone needs you. And the world needs you. Now. I know you feel it. It is probably so overwhelming that you may feel paralyzed, not sure where to begin, how to focus your efforts, exhausted by the news of yet another act of hate, oppression, and violence. Do not give up. Just start. One step at a time. Choose one thing.
I had intended to include a list here of all the ways that you could choose to lean in. And then I realized that the list was too long. Literally everyone you know needs help. Including you. And so, the list has just turned into one important question.... In this moment right now, how can you be of service? Right now, what can you do big or small? Find something today and do it. And then find something tomorrow, and do it.
First, grieve. Feel all your feelings. Do not skip this part. Second, find your center and grounded self. Then, choose one act of love that will make a difference in the world today.
You can do this. We can do this. Together.
I love you,
Alicia
