No Exceptions
Posted by Robin Easton under: Hobnobbin' with Robin .
I was very clear about what I wanted to share today, but when I tried to write, my mind kept wandering back to a vision. I’d not thought about it since it happened just over seven years ago. At its core it is still about love. I apologize for the length of this post; there is music on the sidebar for those of you who wish to listen while you read.
I awoke early one morning and lay in bed watching the sun play across the curtains. Life was good and I anticipated a day spent with my sweetie. Suddenly out of nowhere my body became very heavy and anxious. The anxiety mounted until I was gasping in terror, which I never feel. I don’t have panic attacks; in fact I feel very little fear. Abruptly I found myself floating on the ceiling of a passenger plane, looking down on all the passengers who were screaming and sobbing. Their terror cut through my body like shattered glass, the most extreme terror I’ve ever known.
A man in the isle of the plane shouted angry threats. There was another man just like him in the cockpit but I couldn’t see him clearly. I instantly knew they were terrorists who had taken over the plane. It was going to crash within seconds and the passengers knew it. They clung to each other screaming hysterically. I couldn’t breathe and felt ready to pass out or vomit.
Right when I thought I couldn’t take it another second I snapped and everything went calm. Warm light poured through the plane, embracing, touching, and calming every soul. The purest light I’ve even known flooded my body and I was “in Love.” Every person on the plane, even the terrorists, became Love. I could still feel each individual soul, but they had all turned to Love. There were no exceptions, no exclusions, no hate, no fear, no aggression…only Love. I had never seen (what we call) “evil” transformed into Love. I lay on my bed and sobbed.
I died that day with those people and in dying with them I was reborn. My sobs woke my sweetheart and I told him what I’d experienced. He asked if I was seeing my future: I said, “No, I am seeing Love.” A day or two later a close friend called. She wept as she told me that 9/11 had just happened…that day. She knew I had no TV and wouldn’t know about it.
How do we see something that supposedly hasn’t yet happened? During my years in the wild, linear time vanished. For me there is no time. What I’d previously known as past, present and future merged until they became one and all happened at once. Initially disoriented, I eventually grew to thrive in the absence of time. It allowed me to speak with and hear those I love no matter where they are, close or far, dead or alive. The absence of time allowed me to more readily tap into Universal Knowledge and Love. It’s not always easy because I see things that sadden and horrify me. I easily feel the world’s pain. But I also experience unparalleled Love. I see Love everywhere I go.
No, I am not blind to the horror in the world. I’d be lying to say that I’ve never felt hate for people who abuse and torture. But I now choose to focus on Love because it’s something positive that I can do, and I know without doubt that Love exists. It changes lives. Love motivates me to actively do what I can to end fear, hate and suffering. I’ve fallen in love with a Love so great that I am compelled to love everywhere I go, everyone I meet. Each day I’m thankful that I live in a free country, with friends, family, food, shelter….a blessed life. I can make a difference.
The two organizations listed below (with videos) bring about positive change. Instead of complaining about all the horror, or pretending it doesn’t exist, or sinking into fear and depression, get involved, change your world. Even if all you do is forgive those who have hurt you. Do it for those who’ve been so wounded by hideous crimes that they may never be able to love or forgive. Love your family, your friends, your wife, your husband, your children, your life…everyday. Turn people’s lives around by modeling love, even in the face of hate…LOVE.
Take away love and the earth is a tomb. ~ Robert Browning
Love,
Robin

Thank you for sharing this experience Robin. Now especially we need to feel this as we go forward into troubling times together. This is something to hold in the mind when all seems lost.

“Know thou of a truth that the worlds of God are countless in their number, and infinite in their range. None can reckon or comprehend them except God, the All-Knowing, the All-Wise. Consider thy state when asleep. Verily, I say, this phenomenon is the most mysterious of the signs of God amongst men, were they to ponder it in their hearts. Behold how the thing which thou hast seen in thy dream is, after a considerable lapse of time, fully realized. Had the world in which thou didst find thyself in thy dream been identical with the world in which thou livest, it would have been necessary for the event occurring in that dream to have transpired in this world at the very moment of its occurrence. Were it so, you yourself would have borne witness unto it. This being not the case, however, it must necessarily follow that the world in which thou livest is different and apart from that which thou hast experienced in thy dream. This latter world hath neither beginning nor end. It would be true if thou wert to contend that this same world is, as decreed by the All-Glorious and Almighty God, within thy proper self and is wrapped up within thee. It would equally be true to maintain that thy spirit, having transcended the limitations of sleep and having stripped itself of all earthly attachment, hath, by the act of God, been made to traverse a realm which lieth hidden in the innermost reality of this world. Verily I say, the creation of God embraceth worlds besides this world, and creatures apart from these creatures. In each of these worlds He hath ordained things which none can search except Himself, the All-Searching, the All-Wise.

There we go! 
I think everyone died a little that day. I think on that day we all became a little more patriotic and loving. BTW I believe everyone has a wee bit of psychic ability or whatever you want to call it. I don’t find it strange at all.
ROBIN WRITES:
Dear Shirley, YEAH! You made it!!! I agree with you; I think we ALL have psychic abilities….because I believe it is who we innately are. It’s all there. I think it’s just a matter of aligning ourselves with what already exists. Thanks for sharing; it’s a good life affirming insight.

@ David — Go to David’s site and read another amazing story that will hearten you and instill faith. http://davidnotes.com/2008/10/10/robin-easton-exceptions-paramahansa/
Thank you dear David for sharing this with me. It made me soar!!!!
@ Alex — What a wonderful quote! Thank you for taking the time to share it here. I particularly LOVED these lines (I know you will understand why, my friend):
“This latter world hath neither beginning nor end. It would be true if thou wert to contend that this same world is, as decreed by the All-Glorious and Almighty God, within thy proper self and is wrapped up within thee.

@ M — Yes it was a truly incredible experience that I was blessed to have…and now share with you, someone who appreciates it. Thank you for your kind words about my writing, such wonderful encouragement. I’d have to say the same is true about you!!! You know…it takes one to know one…LOL

I was living in NY that day – and lived through that experience first hand – as well as being involved in the clean up afterward – as much as I could. That has burned a permanent mark in my life – The towers were always available to see through My Daughters room window – Untill they fell and with them a part of me and a part of us. If we could replace all fear with faith and all hate with love what a magical place we would live in… and – we WILL live in!

Dear Robin, how fortunate for you to have had such a profoundly beautiful experience. These are such transforming moments, aren’t they, each time opening yet another window of understanding.
“I could still feel each individual soul, but they had all turned to Love.” To ponder that truth, that all of us are equal in that we are all Love…oh, if we all could do that and see that, the entire world would transform into the Eden you promote.
“I see Love everywhere I go.” That’s the ULTIMATE! How fortunate for the rest of us that you share this Universal message. Thank you and bless you!
With love and much gratitude,
~Julie

Thank you for sharing that story, Robin. I was unaware of “your years in the wild.” I, too, have spent many years in the wild, living close to the Earth. (Perhaps this explains the kindred spirit I feel in you.) The more in tune I became to the natural cycles, seasons and rhythms, the less I felt constrained by the illusion of Time. I find that in this absence of time, the veils between the worlds are thin. As the indigenous people of the Amazon say, The world is as you Dream it.
Only Love.

@ BENNY — Wow! So you know about this firsthand. I can only imagine from my vision what it must have been like there. I was touched that you were part of the clean-up, but then I would expect no less of your character. I really like this line of yours…especially the very ending.
“If we could replace all fear with faith and all hate with love what a magical place we would live in… and – we WILL live in!” Thank you for the …”we WILL live in!” Yes.
@ JULIE — Yes, Julie that’s exactly what they do; they expand my world to almost unimaginable realities. Thank you sweetie.
@TARA — GREAT comment…because yes, it is a choice.
@ LAVINKA — You are right. Happiness is never found in hating another person. It only causes, others and ourselves harm…and stops our growth.
@EARTHMOTHER — “…in the absence of time, the veils between worlds are thin.” You gave me words for something I had trouble expressing with words. Without the veils we are all things…all Love. Thank you for your wisdom.

Hi Robin,
if you like brick buildings to find most of them not in Warsaw, but in Lodz (pronunciation:like wood but not d only ch like how mu”ch”) (in English: Boat, this is funny city name). There is a lot of factories from the nineteenth century and even one of them transformed into Shopping Center, called Manufaktura. Look in blog my friend — http://www.fotozinnejbeczki.blox.pl
What I do every day? I work at a computer. Create views 3d architecture, interior and architectural order for architects. 10 years I learned architecture, but not finish 
I Draw the technical documentation for projects and sometimes the same interior design.

Hate. I have long hated my father because he don’t love me. But I forgiven him and I live lighter in the world. My father died in Chicago on cancer 8 years ago. I have not seen him before his death, but I do not regret it. He died for me when I was a child.

Robin, I don’t know what to say. I haven’t the words. This is breathtaking, and I have tears of love for you, and for your experience. I can’t let go of the image of love emanating from each person on that plane, and will carry that with me – always.
Love is always the answer to everything, and I know that like I know the blue sky. Still, I find myself falling into the horrible cynicism of society and our world today, only to be saddened and left empty. But this love, this thing that will carry us all above all else, is something that I must hold onto and share, if I can.
I so appreciate you pointing this out to me. It seems that, whenever I need something to ease my soul, you come to me and help me. I love you, my friend. xoxo

Thanks Robin. I was getting a bit discouraged this week because of both being on the receiving end of hate and stumbling upon some not so loving web articles today. Your thoughts and the comments left by others, give me comfort to know that so many strive to take a positive path.

It is said you only know love once you realize and experience what arises from a lack of it. Your premonition reminds you that you are a conduit for energy. All human beings have the ability to remove their own illusions of time and space. You tap into free energy flow and sense events as they are. The inquisitive human mind queries events and must place them in “time.”
A book called A Course in Miracles describes ‘Perception vs Knowledge.’ This is taken from p.40:
“Since perceptions change, their dependence on time is obvious. How you perceive at any given time determines what you do, and actions must occur in time. Knowledge is timeless, because certainty is not questionable. You sense truth when you have no urge to ask questions.”

Cheers to you and your wonderful soul. I can find myself slipping into the darkness of dispair at some of the things we do to each other, to the Earth. I can come here and be reminded of the Light. I am taking Charlie and my nephew for a walk in the mountains and will bring you along.
Aroha,

Robin, each time I read something from you, I realise how much we really have in common. I have had some similar experiences that have completely freaked those around me. Robin, the way you are able to write things, your ability to put over your thoughts…. they leave me feeling so much emotion and warmth. You are a truly special and gifted woman, with a heart bursting with gold.
Dearest Robin, I send you a big warm cuddle and kind wishes. Hope you are having a lovely weekend xx

I’m glad I stopped by today to read your post. You are another reminder to me of what matters most for us as humans in the world today. It’s true that life can get discouraging on our daily drag, the routine of life. We tend to turn ourselves off, and sometimes become a dark, negative force, or just identify with the negative. I’m glad, grateful for your reminder that loving others matters most. And I’m glad to see so many others agree with you also.
Thank you,
Cindy

Robin, thank you for sharing your story, and for reminding me that the power of love is amazing. We all can choose – love, hate, indifference. Today I choose love. Even when it’s not easy, even when it’s not convenient, even when it hurts.
You are a bright and shining light Robin! Continue to share and spread your love…

Regardless of whatever we might think, love is superior to hatred. Forgiveness is stronger than vengeance. Most importantly as Robin writes, love is a choice…it’s something we choose to do, it’s our chosen reaction. Let’s continue to choose love above hatred and oppression…but we can only do that, I believe, if we fully understand it demands lots and lots and lots of courage.
Thanks Robin!

Wow, Robin, What can I say? How profound. When our spirit travels, we often blend into situations yet to be or of what was. May times, we never know where are spirits have been, but for you to have had the opportunity to connect so beautifully, is deep. May you be blessed always. Peace

Liara Covert Says:
13 October 2008 at 3:47 pm.
Larry, every human being has the potential to discover the difference between “right-mindedness” and anything that does not serve him. You can evolve to automatically discard any feeling that is negative or judgmental. Love teaches you what ego is not. Love is a tool that empowers you to transcend misperception and blocks to accepting yourself unconditionally. The more you learn about love, the more you realize this is all you are and anything else is a block, is distraction from the truth, no exceptions:)

A psychic vision! I have had a few myself. My psychic friend tells me we all have these abilities; we can hear and see and know but only when we are truly in touch with the earth and in touch with our deepest selves. You are definitely one of those folks…
Beautiful piece and great advice. Even if we touch only a few people in our lifetime, even if we make only a small difference, our life, our journey will be worth the short stay.

@ Lavinka — I am glad for YOU that you were able to forgive your father, because yes you are so right in that we DO live lighter when we can forgive others. It can lift a huge weight off our shoulders and allow us to see the world anew.
@ Ophelia Rising — You said: “But this love, this thing that will carry us all above all else, is something that I must hold onto and share, if I can.” Dearest Ophelia of the shining heart, you already share this with everything and everyone you touch. Love, Robin
@ Larry M — Know that you are a good person, a kind person and that comes across in everything you write and in all your interactions. Remember that. I too find it heartening to see so many good people here and in my personal life. It reminds me that the world is comprised of good hearted people….and how astoundingly blessed I am.
@ Liara — Yes, I agree that “All human beings have the ability to remove their own illusions of time and space.” I also believe we all have the ability to be a “a conduit for energy”. We ARE conduits of and for energy. Amazing!
Re: Course in Miracles — yes, many years ago I was part of group that discussed this book and it’s insights. Thank you for taking part here. It means a lot. You are wise and kind.
@ Robb — Kia Ora. Always good to see your soul here. And what you receive here you freely give back in every interaction with me and others. And yes, PLEASE take my soul with you into the Ruahines…always. Aroha, aroha, aroha my friend. PS: Thank you for taking Charlie and your nephew. I am soooooooooo glad. They are our next generation of Earth seers, lovers and protectors. There souls are bonding with Earth with every breath they take in those mountains. You give them the biggest gift of all. They will not forget.
@ Graham — my dear dear friend, thank you for “being”. Your soul is immense and yes we are kindred spirits. Always shine Graham, always. Because it’s who you ARE. Anything less is not you. You need never lower yourself to something less than who you are. In being YOU you invite others to rise up and reach for Life. There will be those seeking your invitation. You are a great “invitor” with a generous heart. Hugs and love, Robin
@ Cindy — Yes, it is heartening for me as well to see so many loving and wise souls here. It’s exhilarating and so uplifting. I also honor you for your honesty. It touches me deeply. Thank you for sharing here. Hugs, Robin
@ Lance — You wrote: “Today I choose love. Even when it’s not easy, even when it’s not convenient, even when it hurts.” A powerful powerful truth and path to freedom. We may not always be able to control what happens in our lives but we CAN choose how we respond. We can choose Love. Thank you also for your VERY kind and supportive words. They mean a lot to me Lance…as did your comment.
@ WD — So good to see you here. I liked what you said about courage. We often forget that simply being alive takes courage. We often forget to see and honor our own courage. We might not feel courageous when we are going through difficult times, but the fact that we still face them head on with love is in itself courage. Thank you.
@ Sandra — Thank you for your robust and kind encouragement. And yes, you are right; it is good to be grateful and give thanks for the blessings in my life…in our lives. So I thank you for reminding me of that. I think seeing the blessings we have and being thankful for them is one of the most powerful ways to transform our lives.
@ The Fearless Blog — Hi my longtime friend. Always so heartening to see you here. A bit like going home. You said: “…when we are truly in touch with the earth and in touch with our deepest selves.” Yes, that is how it is for me. The closer I am to my mother (the Earth) and the more I love, forgive and embrace Robin and others, more I “see”. The more I fall in love with Life. You said: “Even if we touch only a few people in our lifetime, even if we make only a small difference, our life, our journey will be worth the short stay.” Oh this is so true and beautifully written. Like your heart! Love, Robin
@ Jack — Oh my dear friend Jack. You have helped and encouraged me in ways that I cannot put into words. But I know you understand. You have been like my “rock” and for that I am deeply grateful. AND of course you always make me laugh with your “wit and word”. You are my hero! Thank you from my heart. Love, Robin
@ Robin Easton — Hi Robin. I am glad you have made all the choices you have made with courage and love. It has not always been an easy path, but it has been and continues to be the most brilliant breathless experience of my existence. Living here on Earth where I can see green trees and taste sugary watermelon and smell sweet pine and hear morning birds sing is a gift so immense that my heart swells with joy. Tears run freely down my face simply because I am alive. Love, Robin

I know you concentrate on the good things in the world….I am thinking sometimes THIS is the way to be. Yep, we all know there is some awful stuff, there are elements of humanity that are truly dreadful but if we concentrate on it, then this becomes our reality. Hey I used to work in prisons that were lifer units. But, I choose to concentrate on the good stuff, because promoting it, enjoying it makes it real. And you know the bad stuff is a minority of people….just look around and you can see that it is true. Now all we need is a newspaper/media/broadcast/Robins blog (:D) to broadcast the “good things” and teach the youngsters about good stuff, morals and love. To treat others in a good way, to me it doesn’t matter what God (or not) people believe in but respect of others, that’s a good one…………Big hugs Robin, you are a lovely lady XX
ROBIN EASTON WRITES:
Dear Chrissy, What an exciting comment, busting with vitality! I loved your story of working in prison lifer units and focusing on the “good stuff”…your phrase: “…because promoting it, enjoying it makes it real.” That is SUCH a key truth. And what a gift you gave people who are in a situation that can potentially be devoid of all hope. I am so proud of you and bless you for doing this. It took great love, courage and inner strength…and wisdom on your part to see beyond the very obvious darkness into the light. You are a woman of many talents. Thank you Chrissy for doing that. It made my heart swell with love. Robin —— PS: as to the “good things” broadcast…I have a good online friend who is a dear and she writes a blog for kids (and adults) titled PROOF POSITIVITY at http://proofpositivity.blogspot.com

Hi Robin ~ So I’ve joined Kiva and sent my first ‘loan’ off. Although I don’t care if the money comes back, I know that’s not the point…these people are not asking for charity, they’re asking for a helping hand. And you know I really feel good about myself for doing it and that’s payment enough. I’m going to watch how the guy gets on with his sievemaking business, he’s 23 and has a wife and family. I hope that his future is good.
People get visions like that when they are truly in touch with the universe
and you are.
lots of love

Dear SoulMerlin, I am SO SO SO proud of you and excited that you joined KIVA. YEAH!!! A big hug coming your way RIGHT NOW!!! I will have to go on and find your sieve maker. I am deeply touched that you did this so promptly…and yet it doesn’t surprise me knowing you. How exciting for him and his family the he can make his life better. Also…thank you dear henry for your kind encouraging words. You know they mean a lot to me. They just do. Hugs and love, Robin.

Thanks, Robin, for sharing your feelings about that day, and for offering those videos as ways to focus on the positive things in the world. All too often, especially on the news, we are forced to witness man’s inhumanity to man, while more often than not there is goodness happening every single second, right in front of our nose. If we all practice peace and work on the things WE can do to make the world better, then it will be better.

ROBIN EASTON WRITES:
Hi Mike, great to see you here! I really agree and seem to be realizing this as I get older. I liked your lines: “…there is goodness happening every single second, right in front of our nose.” Like you said, due to media we often forget that good exists. Media can be very pervasive. If we aren’t careful it could have us convinced that there is NO good in the world…at all, and that we should all be living in a state of complete terror. Of course this can immobilize us and make us feel completely hopeless. But we are each vessels of hope, more than the potential for hope when we focus on “what we CAN do….”

And spreading love in one’s immediate surroundings is such a beautifully satisfying way to put that intention out into the universe! I’ve found that even very simple expressions of love, when given freely every day, will begin to draw love out of the people around me – and their love, in turn, spawns more of the same. I like to think that the links will continue all across the globe, sometimes.
Since ill-will can spread in much the same way, I really try to be aware of what I am putting forth!
ROBIN EASTON WRITES:
WOW Kit!!! This is beautifully expressed. I felt the truth of it in my body. Loved your line: “I’ve found that even very simple expressions of love, when given freely every day, will begin to draw love out of the people around me – and their love, in turn, spawns more of the same.”
This key realization of giving love freely with no strings attached really does change lives. I’ve seen this in my own life and it is powerful. We often move into “love” with so many expectations of what we want and should get and how other people should behave, respond and so forth, which is totally different from what you’ve so beautifully expressed. Wonderful writing. Thank you dear Kit. Hugs, Robin

Kia ora Robin,
Well, my pack is filled and I am off Sunday for 4 days of aroha and interaction with the Ruahines. I SHALL take your beautiful spirit, and Ophelia’s as well, with me. It will be so cool to be amongst them and simply smile. As John Muir wrote, “You must climb the mountain to see the view, go amongst them and feel their Glad Tidings”. Robin, thank you for your presence and friendship in my life. I will talk to you in the Ruahines! Kia kaha.
Aroha,

ROBIN EASTON WRITES:
How wonderful…four days! OH YES!!!! This is a much needed break for you. Take it all in Robb, which I know you’ll do anyway. But absorb as much love and peace and life as you possibly can with your Ruahines…because they know you’re coming and are eager to see you. I know this…I feel it my bones. Earth knows when we love her and revels in it by showering us with love and blessings beyond compare. And thank YOU for your presence and friendship in MY life. In just being you you confirm the deepest part of me. I know our beloved Ophelia feels the same. Aroha my dear friend, Robin

So glad I did. Thank you for you.
Robin Easton Writes:
D’Arcy how absolutely fun to see you here!!! What is so odd is that I’ve visited your site just in the last week or so and each time I was going to comment and then I got a call or had to go out or something pulled me away…and here you are. The funny thing is: I was drawn there for the very SAME reasons you came here. LOL I have seen you wonderful comments on all the sites I go to. And I thought I have to see who this D’Arcy is. Will stop by when I get a break. Thank you so much for the kind words and than YOU for YOU!!! Hugs, Robin

Our Beautiful Robin, Having known you now these last ten years, I want you to know how proud I am of you for following your dream to reach out to all of us with your incredibly touching and extraordinarily brilliant insights. You reflect Gods Magnificence and the Goddess Grace in a way no other has. I listened to Dances With Wolves over and over again as I read your bit here ( in tears) and wrote mine. LOVE to you. LOVE to your Sweetie. LOVE to each of those you have touched. LOVE to each and every living thing in our universe. May Peace prevail. Now, I’m going to listen to all of the other lovely music you have given us. Namaste.
Robin Easton Writes:
My dear friend of ten years…when I saw you here with your soul bared and your tears shining, my heart soared and I too got tears in my eyes. This is so lovely what you’ve expressed from your heart. It truly is a time when we each must love, forgive and reach out. It is not grand schemes that will bring peace to our world. It is each of us forgiving those we hold in judgment, those we hold in “grudgment”, hate or anger…and then more than that, it is reaching out and helping, soothing, loving with everything we have and ARE. It is truly a time to Love. So I join you in loving you and yours, loving my Sweetie, loving all the beautiful souls who have touched my life here on these pages and other places. I join you in loving every living thing in our Universe. Love, Robin — PS Please stop by again my friend.

Hi Robin!
Well I think everyone has said it already but wow what an experience indeed. I so believe in dreams and the potential they hold as I have experienced a few “interesting” ones myself. But not enough and I know why. I dream every night and in color and all the trimmings, but I know when my dreams have deeper meaning and it is only when my mind is truly free – I hope to expand on that as time goes on.
One thing I have put into practice is focusing on love. I once heard Dr. Wayne Dyer quote “in my life nothing ever goes wrong” and ever since then that quote just hit me and resonated deep within my heart.
It is not that “bad” things do not happen, but we can help ourselves and the world much more when we focus on love and beauty and channel as much positive energy as we possibly can. Because truly we cannot get sick enough to cure the diseased or poor enough to help those in poverty. But we can be the beacons of light that guide them back home. We can be the love that will fill them up with hope and we can be the change that will just make the right change for them.
Thanks for the links to the 2 organizations – they indeed are a great way to focus on reaching out.
Robin Easton Writes:
Aaah, I’m not surprised that you are a dreamer/seer like myself. I too dream”…in color and all the trimmings…” Re: “…hope to expand on that as times goes on.” Something I did when I was dreaming music and had never had training…I taught myself to memorize the music I heard in my sleep. Just before nodding off give yourself any suggestions you desire. For me it was to remember my music when I awoke. Previously I would wake myself from the dream in the middle of the night and record what I was dreaming. Got tired of waking all the time, almost every night. So just before I nodded off I would say, “When I dream music tonight I will memorize it without waking, and I will remember it in the morning when I rise. I did. I became quite proficient at memorizing music in my sleep. Or remembering dreams clearly when I awoke. But it is powerful to do the suggestions for healing, creativity, problem solving, etc. right before dozing off. It’s very simple and yet gives dramatic results. Or it did for me and I think it would for others.
As to your second paragraph here…it’s a keeper. A stunning keeper. Put it on your blog. It…is…powerful!!! Out of the mouth of babes! WOW!!! It is an important post for your site. In fact…in your case start copying the comments you leave on other sites and post them on your blog. They are wise beyond words! I have thought this many times so I am glad you bring it to my attention now. Thank you for your grace and compassion. Love, Robin

Hello Robin!
What an experience! Whew! Thank you for sharing it with us.
And thank you for the positive spin. Love. Love and how good it is. Love and how it is the only thing that matters. Indeed, without it, we are dead.
Thank you as well for the appeal for making a difference. Indeed we can. And we must.
I so love your heart, the woman that you are. You are an inspiration.
Take care.
Robin Easton Writes:
Hey miss “bright light” what a joy to see you here! You know, it’s such an appearingly simple statement that you made: “Love…it is the only thing that matters.” and yet it’s absolutely ture. If we all were to only focus on LOVE and actively living it the world would change in a month…or less. Thank you for being someone in the world who knows this and lives it. You make a difference. Love, Robin x
