Choose your dog or any human at all that might be appropriate for you to give a ray of hope – a loving, that special energy of love from one living, sentient being to another. This may be a zoo animal, a kennelled animal, an animal that you know of and that suffers in the darkness, or it may be a bitter little old lady who lives in your street – structurally and technically, it matters not.
Allow yourself to love them. I know that that is easier said than done, for we too have our fears of loving. Accept what you can give and receive and see if you cannot release some of your old limitations today and love more, more and more until you breach the threshold into total brilliance and love is, indeed, all there is.
Do what you can. I ask never any more of you than you are ready, able and willing to give. If you cannot breach the threshold as yet or if fears assail you at this point, it is as it is and the beginning, not the end. Try this exercise often and be gentle and loving with yourself, allowing yourself the time you need to grow into love.
This concludes the Harmony Program series. CoCo the Blogging Dog has missed writing his daily posts and is looking forward to coming back tomorrow.
