Standing on Solid Ground
Share
We hear it everywhere. Choose love. Lead with love. Come back to love. But what it means to actually live from love often gets lost. Because in this world, we are rarely taught to choose love as a foundation. We’re taught to choose responsibility. To choose what’s reasonable. To choose what makes sense on paper. To choose what keeps things running. Love is often treated like a feeling or a bonus, something we’re allowed to experience after everything else is handled. But love was never meant to come last.
When we talk about living from love, we’re not talking about romance, positivity or good vibes. We’re talking about letting what we genuinely love become the ground we build on. Relationships that feel true. Ways of living that keep our energy open instead of tight. Choices that feel right in the body, not just correct in the mind. For many of us, this has been a quiet practice for some time now.
We kept showing up. We kept taking care of what needed to be done. But over time, something subtle shifted. More and more, our way of living started coming from what we loved instead of what we felt pressured to carry. That didn’t remove responsibility. It changed the ground we were standing on. And slowly, that ground became steady.
Love was always meant to be the natural ground. It’s how life was designed to function. What distracted us was not a flaw in that design, but a world that taught us to build on effort, pressure, and control instead. Still, every time we lived from love, something aligned. Repetition did its work. What we returned to again and again became what we stood on. And because love comes from Source itself, it could sustain us. It carried momentum. It supported the body, the nervous system, the relationships, the way life moved around us. What feels steady now isn’t an accident. It’s the result of standing, over time, on something that was always meant to hold.
This is the recognition that’s coming into focus. We’re not suddenly standing on solid ground. We’ve been building it. By living from love again and again. By choosing what we truly value. By choosing what keeps us aligned with ourselves. And now, we can feel that the ground beneath us is steady. Life feels less like something we have to hold together and more like something that’s holding us in return.
“Unless the Lord builds the house, the builders labor in vain.”
— Psalm 127:1
