a square digital art piece comprised of a yellowy orange background with a sunburst shooting out from the center. a realistically drawn, but artistically styled heart is in the center with various flowers, ferns and other plants growing beautifully out of the ventricles and more of the heart. the my soul's fuel logo is near the top center and the following wording is below the heart: may we nurture the garden...  ...of love,  in each of our hearts,  so that we can in turn,  share the bounty...  ...with others.

may we nurture the garden...

...of love,

in each of our hearts,

so that we can in turn,

share the bounty...

...with others.

my souls fuel right now...

...is love...

...love...is what the world needs more of...

...nurturing this – love,

in

ourselves,

others,

in all beings...

human, animal, plant, mineral, earth, water, fire, air...

...pulling the weeds,

of what doesn't serve us...

...strengthening our roots...

...together...

...when and where we can...

...rooted connections,

with each other...

...building up our own,

and each others,

soul...

soil...

soul...

...so that we may grow,

survive and thrive...

...with love...


...with love...

...though we're each a seemingly

small piece of the world...

...we can each make a great impact,

much greater than we're led to believe,

on the world overall...

...if we can each heal our hearts,

have healed hearts,

filled with love...

...which includes,

compassion,

empathy,

curiosity,

hope,

joy...


...with hearts filled with love...

...we can grow, and thrive together,

in unity,

with community...

creating space...

a place,

...for all...

to have a rich,

fertile plot,

to plant roots,

grow them strong,

with tender shoots,

bursting from nurtured seeds,

...of love...

love for ourselves,

and together,

love for all,

...growing together,

with the strength,

and courage,

to face both storm and sun...

...how are you,

and/or how could you, would you, if you're not already,

tend to the garden of the heart,

with love...

...what no longer serves you,

that you can let go of?

what can you get curious about,

find...

maybe learn lessons from,

then let go from carrying within you,

pull, weed, compost into

something useful in the present...


...what would you like to nurture,

that would help grow love in your soul?

...this can look like sooo many things,

and may change over time,

a short time,

a long time,

...it could be making time and space for a nap

to catch up on rest,

...or catch up with a friend,

in one way or another,

...having a good meal,

...maybe it's intending to do something,

and making space to do it,

...maybe it's doing quote on quote “nothing”,

which is really something!!,

in a world that expects busyness – always (and on purpose!),

...maybe you could give yourself permission,

to just be...

..even if just for a bit...

...to take in the present moment...

...so many options,

...what would fill you with love,

even just a little...

...do more of that,

as you're able,

and nurture the garden of love

in your heart.
