Wishing You a Happy Global Love Day- May 1, 2014

A Celebration of Humanity

“Love Begins With Me”

Founder”s Global Love Day Address
May 1, 2014

Welcome to Global Love Day 2014,

We live upon an amazingly beautiful planet with a precious and beloved humanity. Coming together this day, we celebrate our heart-centered goodness and kindness that connects each of us around the world as one. United in love, we join as individuals, communities and nations, to express our mutual joy for life – the essence of our vision for Global Love Day each May 1st as a symbol of living with love every day.

As we all share in this Universal bond of love, we are becoming increasingly aware of our presence upon this marvelous orb we call home. We are rapidly appreciating our innate responsibility as caretakers and guardians of life in all its diverse forms and realize that through us, the planet will flourish or decline. The choice is up to each of us; for indeed love begins with me.

Interconnected and interdependent, we are rising to the occasion and making a difference through love. Through self acceptance and mutual forgiveness we are laying our foundation to provide the best possible opportunities for a thriving and sustainable earth that will benefit countless generations to come. With courage, integrity, harmony and dignity, we nourish and bestow our legacy of love from which others will blossom and expand upon.

From compassion and respect, we willingly and naturally embrace the diversity that makes our world an astonishing kaleidoscope of opportunity and potential. Learning from one another enriches our experience beyond measure and delights the very center of our collective soul. Life is infinitely vast and varied and every aspect, particle, and manifestation is profound and exquisitely essential.

An awakening heart has its challenges as we readily release the limitations, outmoded beliefs, structures and limitations that no longer serve. Yet in these transformative moments, we realize that who we are becoming through love is worth every effort as we birth a new reality that enlivens all.

With deep gratitude and love, I welcome you to our eleventh celebration of Global Love Day.

Love, light and peace,

Harold W. Becker

Founder and President

We have also added her songs to a playlist called “Global Love Day Celebration Music” which has some fun songs which are in keeping with the vision of Global Love Day. As the saying goes… “dance like no one is watching” and feel the love.

We also have a video playlist of “Global Love Day Inspirations” that you can share with friends or enjoy yourself. It includes a meditation narrated by our own Board member Philip Snow.
