Love is the willingness to accept and embrace another or ourselves beyond a specific action or word even. In the Christian tradition, today is the third Sunday of Advent, the holy time leading up to the celebration of Jesus' birth. Every Sunday during Advent a candle is lit, remembering a specific quality of the spirit of Jesus and God, today's candle is love.
Let us be willing to embrace ourselves or another in meditation, regardless of what happened or didn't happen. "Hate the sin an not the sinner:" Ghandi wrote in his auto-biography. Lets put our attention on simply loving the sinner or the one who made a mistake. Whether that person be yourself or another, simply move your attention to the light of love they are and love that light.
Affirmation: Today I love the light of love in all life, no strings attached.
