The Light Is First Of All Warm

3 minute read

  Have you met what you would call a warm person?

  What is that quality?

When a person is warm, they are free to express love from their heart. They are able to give of themselves to others. They are in a sense like sunshine to the soul of another. They bring light into dark places of the heart. They are kind.

This warmth that we can feel from loving people also has other by - products into the heart of others. It has the capacity to remove any sense of being judged or interrogated by them and this warmth also has a healing effect that increases the emotional health of the receiver.

  What a beautiful gift to be able to give .

Authentic love, that is for the benefit of another, rather than to get something in return, is strongly associated with self -control.

Self - control comes when we take ownership of our lives and then, because we are the owner, we are responsible for the condition our lives are in, bearing the consequences or reaping the benefits of that responsibility, while respecting the boundaries of others.

We become free from the control and agendas of other people and we are free to use that freedom to be of benefit . This is a self – controlled, loving person.

The giving out of warmth to others produces a happiness in the giver.

Do you seek to be happy?  Happy is a by- product that comes from a warm giving heart.

When we are feeling empty, a good decision, is to be around warm hearted, self- controlled people who will bring light into our dark feelings and lift and heal us. These are safe people.

Then we can be that one who brings sunshine to the heart of another,

                           … increasing our own happiness.
