Love from Kathleen Keating

Wishing you Love from me too.

I have stumbled, pushed, pulled,

and directed my whole life

toward the expansion of my divine humanity,

an inner largeness

that keeps spreading my soul before me

and expanding my spirit around me.

Something closed and cold within

keeps turning me toward the eternal glow of love

until I melt and overflow

in tears and screams and laughter and roars,

and vitality spins around me like a dance.

I can't stop now.

I have taken risks

on purpose because I believe in love

and accidently because I was naive.

I not only have been burned, I have been consumed

in the fire of hope.

But after the pain I am always resurrected,

to my amazement, again and again

and again.

Each time I dust off the ashes of experience

I am deeper and richer

and closer to the wonder of who I really am,

and, as the family of humankind,

who we really are.
