Dear friend,

Do you like or love - either or both of me? Do you remember this great line from the Phoebe Snow song? Okay probably most of you aren't old enough.

Sometimes we're at our best, sometimes not. Do you have people who love you no matter how you are doing today? Or this year? And how about you. Can you love others even when they are not at their best? There is no better way to connect with people who know how to love than to be one yourself.

There may be people you can't bring yourself to like. That's probably a personality thing. Can you love them anyway? That's a soul thing. Negativity that we carry hurts us.

I am very blessed to be loved. Most of all by God and my Guru Paramhansa Yogananda. These lines from Phoebe's sweet song remind me of the joys of unconditional love.

Sometimes this life gets so empty
That I become afraid.
Then I remember you're in it
And I think I might still have it made.



To loving and being loved,
Nityananda
