Aphrodite’s Manifesto 

Amore * amour * amor * die Liebe * αγάπη * kärlek * liefde  * szeretet *  喜  * 爱

Let there be love

All you mortals of the earth!

I am not concerned with details

I am not limiting you to romantic love

But any feeling that that warms your heart

And sends a rush of energy

Flying toward a living being, an object, a notion, or a place

A feeling that, in and of itself, makes you profoundly happy

With no need for reciprocity of that feeling and that gift

Let there be love

All you mortals of the earth!

Love is a vibration that, when projected outward, can draw back unto you

Goodness and love multiplied

Love is a feeling that, in its purest form, will fill you completely

And leave no gaps for want or lack or confusion or the need to possess

Let there be love

All you mortals of the earth!

And just for the record,

Remember that Cupid is my son, and I his mother

He is immortal, but he does not hold dominion over love

He is an implement of connecting romantic love from source to recipient

He is the mascot of a day in February set aside for lovers

But that is only one aspect of a greater force and consciousness

Love is not just about naked, winged gods with deadly arrows

Let there be love

All you mortals of the earth!

Love shines like the colors of the spectrum

It wears many faces, sings out in a chorus of thundering melodies and harmonies

It is tasted in a banquet of many flavors and morsels, and wafts over you in a bouquet of fragrances

Love brought us forth into life, and it follows us into eternity

Therefore, love belongs to everyone

Love…..is to be celebrated

So let there be love

All you mortals of the earth!

Breathe it in, swallow it whole, feel it moving through you and around you

Feel it connecting you to the greater whole

Let it draw you to your higher self and greater purpose

Love is the greatest gift you will ever be given in your time here

And the only form in which you will exist, ever after

Let there be love
