“Wisdom tells me I am nothing. Love tells me I am everything.
And between the two, my life flows.” —Nisargadatta Maharaj
Leaving a legacy of love begins with positive energy and a healthy optimism for our future and the future of our world. When we channel love and create what we want in alignment with what is best for ourselves, others, and our world, this flow becomes a spiritual path that leads to living joyfully, abundantly, and well. Leaving a legacy of love is the path of seeing life as a challenge, an adventure―and, most of all, a gift.
People who leave a legacy of love no matter where they go are love ambassadors. They aren’t saints, prophets, or gurus maintaining an austere and monastic lifestyle. Quite the opposite, they are people like us. They usually go unnoticed until you realize how happy, joyful, and peaceful they are, even in the midst of life’s messiness. When you engage in a conversation with them, you see how positive and present they are compared to most people living at lower levels of spiritual awareness.
Love ambassadors are connected to a field of divine energy that emanates from them. They consciously plug into this energy source through prayer or meditation, being in nature, or simple mindfulness. Through this connection to their source, they are in touch with their infinite nature as love and live each day as a sacred meditation.
As love emissaries, they are committed to their personal transformation. Secure in their trust in themselves and their divine source, they let go of trying to control their lives, and instead allow them to unfold. By acknowledging the divine order that exists within them and in everything around them, they surrender any expectations of how life should be, and focus their intentions on what they want it to be.
Love ambassadors live in a constant stream of gratitude. They wake up every morning with a sense of appreciation and a healthy anticipation for what the universe has in store for them. Before their feet even touch the floor, they open their hearts and give thanks for the day in front of them.
Life comes at love ambassadors too; yet, they trust that their spirit is stronger than any problems they can possibly face. They embrace every situation as an opportunity for transformation, even when that situation unravels the fabric of their lives. They focus on the light in darkness and affirm their strength in handling whatever comes their way.
As co-creators, they guide their intentions into reality by co-navigating with their source. Visualizing themselves out in front of their intention, they imagine how their manifested intention would look and feel in their life. As they go about their day, they think and act as if their intention has already manifested.
Love ambassadors are whole and complete within themselves, and therefore abundant. You may notice that they take great pleasure in giving and receiving; this keeps their abundance flowing and in circulation. You will see them “paying it forward” by buying coffee for someone in line behind them, or giving gifts on a whim, simply to make someone feel good.
They continuously express their intention to love themselves and their fellow beings. When they interact with others, they acknowledge them through eye contact and a smile. People feel completely seen and heard in their presence.
Love ambassadors have a high vibrational energy that overrides negativity with love. They are highly aware of the level of energy they bring to any moment. They trust that the simple act of putting their attention on their heart center and emitting love energy raises their vibration.
Love ambassadors are, however, aware of their need to love and care for themselves, and so they take regular breaks to restore and recharge their energies. They take quiet time throughout the day, and only selectively tune into mainstream media outlets. Much time is spent in meditation, in nature, and in healing practices such as yoga, massage, acupuncture, and alternative healing modes.
Living in the flow of love, they cultivate soul-hearted relationships by surrounding themselves with people who love, support, and care for them unconditionally. They create an energetic support team that listens to them without judging, enabling, or commiserating, and encourages them to trust themselves, follow their hearts, and embrace their vulnerabilities.
Love envoys spend time playing, simply having fun, and celebrating being, alone or with their partner, family, or friends. They are sensuous beings and take pleasure in the simple things in life that make their hearts sing with joyful abandon. They say yes to new situations that make them laugh, force them to explore outside their comfort zones, or prompt them to view their lives from a new perspective.
Love ambassadors are responsible for their vibrational footprint on the planet. They are humanly and environmentally conscious by making choices that sustain the well-being of the planet and all its inhabitants. They live consciously through making enlightened choices that serve themselves as well as others highest and greatest good.
