“I thought you You loved me..!” I heard her screech, as I got closer. She was in tears, and so was the guy walking besides her. It was long past midnight, and they were walking along a woody path, in pouring rain.
After a wonderful Earth day Picnic & Eco-Ceremony in Trent park, I was returning home. I had got the last bus from Modern, and still had a 10 minute walk – along a quiet path with trees on either sides and past a fat flowing stream. The couple walking infront of me must have got off from the same bus.. and I heard occassional loud screeches from the distance. It’s only when I got closer (I walk fast) that I realised they were having some sort of an emotional exchange. It seemed that he was not there at a particular event or place, and she had had a bad experience. All I could hear was silence and sobbing from him and few softly spoken words.
As I over took them, there was only one thought in my mind.
We all – you, me and everyone – want to be loved! (Is that why we call some people in our lives, `Beloved..’? 🙂

And when we do, it puts us on top of the world!! And we are not, we are in hell.. !!
So, with whatever energy I had left of the wonderful Earth Day event, I spread a bit of magic their way – that they shall feel loved. And as I walked further, it came to me – that it’s a pretty good spell to cast on the whole world.
So on this Beltane Day, with the images of the Lord and Lady I caught in the flames last night, I wish you all fulfilment of Love.
Be Loved..
Bright Blessings
