Hi Bolette, lovely expression, heartfelt!

Comment by BOLETTE BIRCH on January 21, 2010 at 4:11pm

When I speak, I speak from my sense .. from my brain. I want to speak from my heart .. to talk through my feelings.

I wonder what happens to people around ,if I communicate more directly from the heart?

I want you to communicate with me through your heart, then I know you love me.

I can not feel you when we only communicate with the brain and common sense.

I need you. I need your love.
Your hot broad arms that keep me tight, your warm breath against my hair.
Your chest against my chest.
And then talk to me. Figures in love, in devotion and most of all in honesty.

Then my heart speak to your heart and everything we saved on the bad memories and experiences were with a blurred and forgotten, the heart does not know the past, heart effects only at moments right here and now .. and it is here and now I need you.

Come .. Let your heart love me.

Trish the object of these stories is Unconditional Love. Any genre, any topic. Browse the topics that have been left in the "Topic" discussion for inspiration...or develop your own. Then post your writings, poems, or other contributions in "Unconditional Love Begins" forum.

Just created "Unconditional Love Begins" discussion. Post your beginnings there. We can take a look at chapters and such in a bit...but for now...WRITE ON!

Wow, This is wonderful. There is a deep thinking about what this really means. Look at how many people here from all walks of life, across the globe can come together and write a collaboation about Unconditional Love. This is so amazing to me and the thought of just doing this leaves me in awe. You all make it so easy for me to LOVE you. This is something that I have thought about. I have questioned myself if I make it easy to be loved as well.
I really dont care if you dont wash your face, I love you. I dont care if you have smelly feet...I love you. I dont care if you are crazy and have wild parties on a ship...I love you. Bottom line I dont care if you eat green eggs and ham, I will still love you, I simply LOVE you. I have a tear in my eye this morning writing this and a bit of a lump in my thoat, and yes my lips do curl down on the sides when my face goes into that ugly when that tear drops...you have all touched me this day. Im logging off now as I have to pull myself together. Remember I Have house guests and I dont what them to think Im a blubbering idiot. I love being a witness to all of this...its absolutely marvelous as I cant find any other words to discribe it. With more love that you can Imagine, J

Hi all! The enthusiasm and work here is so completely awesome with just a few hours into this project!

It looks like what we are finding as a starting point is -what love means to each of us right now. Some are expressing it in relation to other people. And other writers are expressing it in relation to themselves.

I really like the idea that we are each working on our own story And yet we can move in and out of co-creating others stories...actively - by writing directly to the other persons story...or passively - by simply writing and inspiring!

Chapter headings are a great idea. I think to start we might consider unconditional love as a jumping off point. Why not let's all take a look at the idea of unconditional love. How it applies to friends, family, romantic interests (partners / significant others), pets, lifestyle, life...and of course...giving & receiving unconditional love from the self.

This can be a fictional endeavor...or philosophical, biographical, historical, alternate history, auto-biographical...any genre...as long as it stays on the topic of Unconditional Love!

Maybe for some examples...how do you fill up the stores of unconditional love within yourself? Or what does a romance filled with unconditional love look like to you (fiction / non...the world is your blank page!).

I like the idea of this flowing organically from one story to the next...from one individual to the next....from one person's vision to the next. I hope you all see this group as a blank slate to write a continuing story of your ideas and / or experiences of unconditional love.

An idea has been floating around the either of my thoughts...what if these stories all had some loose connection (aside from 100 day challenge). What if everything occurred in the same period of time...or in the instance of historical fiction, on the same date...or with the same family tree etc. It can be a loose as one person from this story walking into a museum while another from another story is leaving. Or on line synchronization...you know the idea... synchronized..simpatico.

So...the two things...

1. Unconditional Love - is mandatory theme - any genre.
2. Optional - Some piece of synchronization between your story and one other story like is already happening with the book...but placed within each of your stories.

Hope that helps in fine tuning the project!

How about writing how we live from our hearts each day. The ways we show love, compassion, caring, feelings, giving, romance etc. This way our writings would include partners, close family, friends, new contacts, animals, homes, nature, dreams, etc. There would be no limitations on each person's writings, giving everyone freedom to express themselves easily. Maybe the book could have chapter headings - such as Nature, Friends, Homes, etc - with each persons' experiences within those chapters. Does this make sense and what do you think? Already we can see how one person's thoughts have linked up with another's thoughts (100th monkey syndrome), even though we probably have never met them in our waking life (yet!). Many of us are sleeping, eating, relaxing, working, laughing, imagining, within different time-zones - yet we are connecting constantly!!! Let me know what you feel.......
