Be A Love Beam?

Even when life sends viruses, snowstorms, and negative naysayers flooding your world, you can shine out a beam of positivity.

What does it mean to be a love beam? Star Trek beams people up and back down wherever they need to land. Sun beams stream light into windows, beckoning one to awaken before they want too. Laser beams heal eyes, cut shapes, and show lines on the wall to balance where to hang pictures.

Beams, indeed, all kinds of beams show up. What is a love beam, I ask again? A love beam means to spared every single room you enter with laser beams of love. Yeah! Love beams are the energy links inside of our souls ready to pour out whichever way we walk.

Can you say you have love beams coming out of you?

Some days, maybe I have some genuine beams flowing from my soul to those who pass me by. A whole room though? I don’t know if I have enough of that inside of me. At least not today!

Spread the love also means to shine when life is dark. You ever see one of the bubble wands? Kids love chasing the bubbles. Bring a wand out and fill the air with happy bubbles and even the pets show up excitedly barking and chasing each little bubble before the burst happens.

Can you be a bubble sharer today?

The mission of the Spiritual A.F. deck is to bring yourself out of a stuck mindset and embrace the suck of life. Embrace the suck with a bubble of joy or a beam of love.

The plan is to step outside of oneself and recognize when you can shine a light in a dark place by spreading kindness, positivity, and optimism.

As the day wanes, positive vibes settle down and rest. You’ll need to gather some strength for rejuvenation. Tomorrow shows up as fast as time allows, all in the right moment.

Maybe today wasn’t such a splendid experience.

Maybe your feelings felt wounded or your family is grating on your nerves. After all, in today’s world we are all stuck inside or experiencing limited contact with society. All of the factors involved does not have to destroy a positive spirit.

Maybe if we recharge we might find our love beams again, and then, who knows? Life might settle down and we all will laugh again. Either way, here are some down to earth practical ways to grow your thankfulness and love beams.

A grateful list

Before you start your day tomorrow, spend a few moments thinking of all the blessings you can name in fifteen seconds. If you can’t think of anything, start with your eyes.

After all, you are reading, right?

The simple task to name the simple objects we are grateful for builds up the love beam inside of us, so when we go out to face the room full of family members hovering around the coffee pot, we’ll shine, instead of demand like a zombie, the last cup of coffee.

People won’t run and hide when they hear our footsteps climbing the stairs. They will smile when they see those big beautiful green eyes full of love shining out at them. (If you have brown eyes, just replace the words above and you’ve got it just right!).

If you can’t find the inner love beams, or the bubbles to send out happiness, pick up some donuts and place them on the counter the night before. In the morning, you’ll hear giggles and smiles cause seriously, almost everyone is delighted with donuts.

You see? The mission is simple.

To shine as a Spiritual A.F. person you’ve got to get out of your comfort zone and be a great big giver of kindness and love. You got this, Grasshopper. Now, go get em!
