Christmas and love
So close to Christmas it is already noticeable. A sense of community seizes the people. Our differences are mainly forgotten and we focus on what connects us all: the Christmas celebration. These days it seems easier to break free from our dominating stream of thoughts. We end up more in our hearts to experience what love is. Even science discovers more and more that it is all about love and they are able to measure love.
We recognize it as endearing, warm and blissful, but what is love anyway? The many religions and civilizations around the world all agree about one thing: it is all about love. Love is the invisible glue that pastes everything together.
We know this of course, but our minds want to be able to prove it. Seeing is believing, is the motto. Fasten your seatbelts, because the evidence is piling up that it really is so. Research results from many different branches of science show it. Quantum mechanics, physics, biology, neuropsychology, astronomy, all fingers point in the same direction. Love is measurable and its language is mathematics.
Love
When two people affectionately embrace, a love spiral is created that penetrates the DNA through the body's cells and immediately changes the DNA structure. This love spiral is called a 'lo-phi-wave', named after the presence of the number 'phi' in the spiral. 'Lo-phi', sounds like 'love', perhaps the origin of the word love?
In our hearts the same cells are found as in our brains. These cells are equipped with intelligence. Moreover, our hearts radiate an electromagnetic field that is 5000 times more powerful as that of our brains. Makes you really think, doesn't it?
Crisis = opportunity
Meanwhile the big and small crises fly over our heads and we have no idea how to solve them. Shall we reverse the matter this Christmas? Crisis means opportunity. Well, let's face it, people are lazy creatures, if we are in a prosperous comfort zone, we want to keep what we have and we get stuck in old ideals. We need a crisis as push in the back to reach further. We may grow again and explore the paradise of infinite possibilities.
This is where our heart and love come into play. Because we have to make a choice. Do we keep on reasoning the world from the head, fear is lurking. And fear is not the best advisor, not to mention the guide to a peaceful and sustainable society. Or do we use the Christmas spirit to come into our hearts, where fear has no right to exist and where inspiration and creativity are in control? The heart, which possesses its own intelligence and which is much more powerful. Then the heart takes control over the head and the opportunities that we feel will develop into great solutions that offers the best for all.
I wish you a loving Christmas and an inspiring 2012!
