Love Greetings: 5 Seconds of Love Magic

We all greet people every day – lots of people. People we work with.
Friends. Family. Strangers.

The average greeting occurs in less than 5 seconds – and what
enormous love potential exists in those first 5 seconds.
Unfortunately, those precious seconds are often stiff, routine, or
simply unthinking. How often to you feel loved by people who greet
you? Or how often do others feel loved when you greet them? Simple
questions, but very revealing.

So what creates true love magic in those first 5 seconds – with
anyone?

The first 5 seconds of love magic begins with intention – and that
occurs even before you encounter the other person. For example, what
is your intention today when you greet a friend or fellow worker, a
close family member, a lover, or a stranger? Perhaps you don't even
have an intention – or a clear intention. That would not be unusual.
But the quality of your greeting is not likely to rise higher than
your inner intention.

So, for example, when you buy groceries, do you have an intention
for the cashier to feel loved? Or is your intention just to get the
task done? And, in your family, is it your intention today that your
partner, kids, or family members feel loved when you greet them – or
have you thought about that today? Intention is the springboard to
love magic in those first precious seconds. So put love magic into
your greetings today. With everyone you meet, let your intention be
to have them feel your love.

And after intention, it's time for your beautiful eyes look directly
into another's beautiful eyes. Are you kidding? That's embarrassing
and awkward! Perhaps it is, but let's discover what might change
your heart/eye habit. First, have you ever felt the glowing
satisfaction of another's loving, sustained eye contact, even for a
few seconds?

Sustained eye contact, infused with love intention, melts and opens
our hearts. Most eye contact lasts less than half a second. In other
words, virtually no eye contact. If you want to create 5 seconds of
love magic, get your intention aligned with love and then use those
beautiful eyes of yours and sustain eye contact for at least 3
seconds. Don't worry about feeling awkward or the other person
feeling awkward. This is a moment for love alignment.

Yes, love alignment. That's the third ingredient in creating 5
seconds of love magic. Let love do the looking through your eyes.
Drop your faηade and fears. Just let love itself pour through your
intentions and your eyes. Such purity of love is irresistible – and
it feels wonderful for you too. So what if someone else's eyes drop
away from such direct heart linking. You have still loved them well.
But you will be surprised how often others will respond – and often
with the fourth ingredient in love magic, the smile.

A smile flowing straight from love itself (love
alignment), combined with clear intention and soft, direct eyes is
the equivalent of the most beautiful flower on Earth. A smile by
itself is lovely. A smile combined with direct eyes is even more
loving. And a smile, with direct eyes, combined with love intention
is pure love magic. Such greetings often lead to a gentle touch of
someone's arm or a hug.

How long does all this intention-eye-smile-touch greeting
take? About 3 seconds. So we still have 2 seconds left in our love
magic greeting.

And that leads us to the love message. Consider this the dessert of
the 5 second love greeting. Rather than asking the typical, "How are
you today?" with it's typical answer, "Just fine," offer a simple
love message – something from your heart that you feel or appreciate
about the other person. For example, "It feels good to see you
today." Or, "I'm very grateful to know you." Or, "You have a lovely
smile." Or, "Thank you for being my friend." Or, "I hope all is well
within your heart."

There are infinite ways to give a simple love message. The key is
that your words are truly a message from love, however simple. Let
them flow from your open heart with clear love intention. Don't be
afraid to be loving. It is simply love speaking & flowing through
you. Welcome to the heart of Love!
