For your consideration…
We know that love is the most powerful energy in the Universe. Its presence can cure all things. Its absence is the root of all chaos. Personally, we all know the euphoric feeling, the comfort, the peace, the HOPE, the optimism, etc. that loves brings to our lives. We also know the heartbreak, loneliness, HOPElessness, and vulnerability when we lose a love or a love changes via death, divorce, breakup, et.
I have a pretty eclectic playlist on Spotify. Today’s message came in via one of the songs on my playlist. It is “Unsteady” by the X Ambassadors. I believe in this song they are talking about divorce. But our message today is talking about all love loss and/or changed.
We are asked to remember that love never dies. Yes, it can change form via death. Yes, it can change via divorce or breakup. Or it can change just because we change. The key to our message today is to remember is is still alive and present. How do we know this? Our pain tells us so. Our message via this song wants us to remember this and to “hold on” through our unsteadiness. Reach out to your Guidance or loved ones for support until we can get to the other side. And finally, remember to do the same for others. Hold them up when they are unsteady.
That is the HOPE. And so it is.
Hold, hold on, hold onto me‘Cause I’m a little unsteadyA little unsteadyHold, hold on, hold onto me‘Cause I’m a little unsteadyA little unsteady
Mama, come hereApproach, appearAnd Daddy, I’m alone‘Cause this house don’t feel like home
If you love me, don’t let go (hold)Whoa, if you love me, don’t let go (hold)
Hold, hold on, hold onto me‘Cause I’m a little unsteadyA little unsteadyHold, hold on, hold onto me‘Cause I’m a little unsteadyA little unsteady
Mother, I knowThat you’re tired of being aloneDad, I know you’re tryingTo fight when you feel like flying
But If you love me, don’t let go (hold)Whoa, if you love me, don’t let go (hold)
Hold, hold on, hold onto me‘Cause I’m a little unsteadyA little unsteadyHold, hold on, hold onto me‘Cause I’m a little unsteadyA little unsteady
Hold, hold on, hold onto me‘Cause I’m a little unsteadyA little unsteady
