THE AROMA OF LOVE



“a BABY is BORN
with a NEED to be LOVED
and never outgrows it”
~Frank A Clark

what the world needs now is
LOVE SWEET LOVE
it’s the only thing
that there’s just too little of…

we’ve all heard this song
are you giving LOVE
are you a giver or a taker
interesting how it all
intertwines with all the necessities of life

what does a child need to BLOSSOM
what does a relationship need to BLOOM
what does a career need to THRIVE

today think about your -
family
friends
career
people you meet
places you go

what are you leaving behind
what will others remember
do you want to give LOVE
to FOCUS on each individual

each MOMENT of your day
when you leave a room
may there be a fragrance of -
SMILES
SERENITY
SWEETNESS
SUNSHINE

being around a person that
totally thrives on –
frowns
upheavals
bitterness
gloominess
what does that do to your SPIRIT

you have this MOMENT in TIME
that’s all -
yesterday is gone – past
TODAY is this MOMENT in time – PRESENT
tomorrow – may never come

LOVE is an aroma that flows ETERNALLY
LOVE never fails
when you leave another person
leave the aroma of LOVE

“who being LOVED is poor”
~Oscar Wilde

ARE YOU COLORFUL



“the hunger for LOVE
is much more difficult to remove
than the hunger for bread”
~Mother Teresa

are you BUILDING UP others
or are you pulling them down
the corporate world seems to
have become the me generation

come along with me…
bring BRIGHT VIVID COLORS
into the lives of others by
looking for their BEAUTY

when you see someone being pulled down
your job is to show them
the BRIGHT VIVID COLORS
in their lives
not to focus on the bleak blackness
that is being thrown at them

i have always LOVED to wear
very BRIGHT VIVID COLORS
because they make me feel -
FABULOUS
CHEERY
FUN
LOVING
JOYFUL

life is too short to bring
bleak blackness into others lives
or to allow it to be brought into yours
right now FOCUS on your life

do the world and yourself
a BIG POSITIVE FAVOR
show everyone
BRIGHT VIVID COLORS

bleak blackness is a negativity
that will rip you apart
whoever walks you path
make sure they receive a RAINBOW

“hate leaves ugly scars
LOVE leaves BEAUTIFUL ones”
~Mignon McLaughlin

GROWTH IN THE VALLEY



“if we’re GROWING
we’re always going to be
out of our COMFORT zone” ~John Maxwell

some days are valley days
you may be asking what is a valley day
a valley day is when you find yourself
not on the mountaintop where you belong

it is when you become overwhelmed
from negativity being thrown at you
and you are too weak to
HOLD UP your SHIELD of POSITIVITY

does this make sense
have you experienced it
take some time to
digest your valley moments

LEARN and GROW from them
you are STRONG
you will STAND for RIGHTEOUSNESS
FOCUS on your POSITIVE BELIEFS

you are a SHINING STAR in a dark world
you are an OVERCOMER
KNOW your SMILE is SUNSHINE
don’t allow your JOY to be taken away

you will find yourself in the valley -
when your STRENGTH fades
when you are not feeling WELL
when someone lies to you

when your SHIELD of FAITH is down
you are too weak to hold it up
please remember weakness
produces POWERFUL NEW INSIGHTS
and shows all the STRENGTH you have

take all the time you NEED in that valley
then CLIMB HIGH to the MOUNTAINTOP
and SHOUT to the world -
MY SPIRIT IS RENEWED
MY SOUL IS FULL OF LOVE
MY BODY IS STRONGER

REALIZE and always REMEMBER -
tears are PURIFYING RAINDROPS
to REFRESH your SPIRIT/SOUL/BODY
they make you STRONGER

now you in turn will be
a LOVING COMFORT to others
one of my precious friends wrote
the beloved poetic quote to me

“MY BELOVED GEORGI
THE SUN SHINES WHEREVER YOU GO
AND FLOWERS BLOOM IN YOUR STEPS
LUCKY THE MAN THAT IS IN YOUR PATH
WITH YOUR SUN IN HIS LIFE AND
THE SCENT OF YOUR FLOWERS
IN HIS MEMORY”

lovingly yours,
G

GOING WITH THE FLOW



“there is great POWER and ABILITY
in your PRESENCE
BE in the NOW
LIVE the TREASURE that is
already yours in this very MOMENT”
~Ralph Marston

the JOY of a day of just going with the FLOW
doing whatever comes to mind
feels FABULOUS
LETTING GO

being kind of lazy
REVITALIZES your whole being
you need these kind of days
it is very ENERGIZING to your
BODY/SOUL/SPIRIT

LIVE in the MOMENT
LIFE is GRAND
FOCUS on your surroundings
BREATHE in your CREATIVE ENERGY
TOUCH all the BEAUTY

read inspirational books
RECEIVE BLESSINGS on
a GLORIOUS level
OPEN UP the WINDOWS of your
HEART and MIND

FOCUS on the PASSION
of everyday happenings
sit back and just MEDITATE
on the BEAUTY of being able
to take another breath

go out and take a walk
in the FANTASTIC SUNSHINE
and whoever you meet along your path
EMBRACE them with the
SUNSHINE you are receiving
ENJOY your MOMENT

“don’t hurry ahead to whatever is next
BE in the NOW”

FORGIVENESS = FREEDOM



“FORGIVING is REDISCOVERING
the SHINING path of PEACE
that at first you thought
others took away when they betrayed you”
~Dodinsky

ENJOYING a MOMENT of QUIET SOLITUDE
thinking about being totally FREE
what does BEING FREE mean to you
FORGIVENESS comes to my mind

we all fail at one time or another
we need to TOTALLY have FREEDOM
to FORGIVE ourselves and others
one of the KEYS is being FREE of pride

pride is an ugly disease
and i do mean disease
think about it
what is pride

a vile force that takes you into captivity
it brings with it a strong negativity
it must be fully faced when it arises
it leaves behind a remnant of pain

if not dealt with IMMEDIATELY
it LIVES in you unrecognized
coming out indirectly asĀ  -
anxiety
anger
outbursts
physical illness

pride feeds on negative thoughts and words
in turn you want to make
others miserable
this becomes a vicious circle

don’t let PRIDE take you down this ugly path
learn to FORGIVE yourself and others
EMBRACE the FREEDOM of FORGIVENESS
as soon as you FORGIVE
you have a CLEAN SLATE before you

“man is FREE the MOMENT
he WISHES to BE”
~Voltaire

lovingly yours,
G

PS – in the above picture
the BLOOMING FLOWERS represent FREEDOM
the shriveled FLOWERS represent pride

POSITIVE ATTRACTION



“ATTITUDE is a little thing
that makes a BIG difference”
~Winston Churchill

well that HOT PINK
is a COLORFUL ATTRACTION :-) !!!
hey a girl’s just gotta have FUN!!!
i was thinking today…
what am i truly ATTRACTING

i believe that whatever emotion
i am displaying to others
they respond back to me
with that same emotion

if i am JOYFUL
i seem to be able to
turn a person around
to see the JOY in their lives

if i am a bit under the weather
i seem to bring a dull cloud
what does this do to another

when i truly LOVE
it is given back to me
but the KEY is i must have
my whole heart involved
this is the law of attraction

then there are others
that no matter what i display
they choose to let
their ugly ego take over

i choose POSITIVE ATTRACTION
try it…
you will find
that you will attract -
JOY
LOVE
BEAUTY
KINDNESS

just like honey bees to the honeycomb
honey is yummy…
hey i’ll EMBRACE that
with a POSITIVE PASSION ;-)

“the only disability in life
is a bad attitude”
~Scott Hamilton

PS – HOT PINK always helps :-)

LOVE IS ALWAYS FREE



“the most IMPORTANT thing in LIFE
is to LEARN how to GIVE out LOVE
and LET it COME in”
~Morrie Schwartz

did you ever have such a POSITIVE-packed-
ENERGY-flowing-ENTHUSIASTIC day
that you really didn’t want it to end…
then you know LOVE is ALWAYS FREE ;-) !!!

POSITIVE energy seems to flow
and keeps going on and on
LAUGHING to the FULLEST
days like this are so FANTASTIC

THINK…
what truly makes a day full of -
ENTHUSIASM
FREEDOM
LAUGHTER
JOY
FUN

it’s the people who spread –
LOVE
POSITIVITY
UNSELFISHNESS
KINDNESS
FONDNESS

being able to totally release ego
to LET it GO
ego is unhealthy to yourself and others
yet JOY is always found in the MOMENT -
if you CHOOSE to FIND it

DISCOVER the LOVE you have for -
family
friends
people you have yet to meet :-)

“there is no surprise more MAGICAL
than the surprise of being LOVED
it is GOD’S FINGER on man’s shoulder”
~Charles Morgan

SUNSHINE LOVE



“those who bring SUNSHINE
to the LIVES of others
cannot KEEP it from themselves”
~James Matthew Barrie

REJOICE in TODAY
your DEEPEST emotion is LOVE
it comes from the DEPTH of your SOUL
RELEASE it FREELY to others

others need to BASK in
the SUNSHINE of your LOVE
MOMENT by MOMENT
a sense of growing PEACE
will fill you as your LOVE BLOSSOMS
into GLORIOUS SUNSHINE

world power corrupts
LOVE builds UNITY
OPEN your HEART to LOVE
BEGIN to SEE things differently

you will SEE more CLEARLY
SUNSHINE is a RAY of LOVE
negative thoughts will be blown away
by SUNNY POSITIVE thoughts

ENJOY the SUNSHINE of LOVE
EMBRACE it and let it flow FREELY
for it truly is your day to SHINE :-)

“KIND HEARTS are the GARDENS
KIND THOUGHTS are the ROOTS
KIND WORDS are the FLOWERS
KIND DEEDS are the FRUITS
take CARE of your GARDEN
and KEEP OUT the weeds
FILL it with SUNSHINE
KIND WORDS and KIND DEEDS”
~Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

lovingly yours,
G

POSITIVITY/NEGATIVITY



“you have to LEARN
the RULES of the GAME
and then you have to play
better than anyone else”
~Albert Einstein

POSITIVITY releases FREEDOM
FOCUS on the POSITIVE
negativity is vampire energy
sucking all your strength

negative energy can blast into your life
just like the above picture

some people carry it within them
be AWARE of your energy field

BUILD an imaginary WALL
BLOCK the negative flow
BREATHE in
POSITIVE energy
BELIEVE
in POSITIVE attraction

REFOCUS to RID the vampire energy
sometimes it is tough

it suddenly can swirl around you
totally catching you off GUARD

this is the time to begin
BUILDING your imaginary WALL

you have CONTROL
you do not have to participate

vampire energy is a deep-seeded ego
that is self destructive

POSITIVE energy brings PEACE
allowing you FREEDOM

life can be tough
don’t focus on the whirlwind of negativity
RELEASE your thoughts
on the BEAUTY of POSITIVITY

“RIGHT human relations
is the only TRUE PEACE”
~unknown

lovingly yours,
G
