Inspired by lyrics by Scott Ainslie to “Cold in Here”
“I thought I felt a little cool breeze come through. What shall we do? Don’t it feel cold in here to you? Turn up the heat. Warm up your feet.” Loving, patient, and warm words take the chill out of the air between us – from the top of our heads to the tip of our toes.
“Turn on the light, nothing seems right.” It’s up to me to turn to the light that shines within, even when things seem dark. When I look with love, I let the light come on again.
“Come back again, I’ll make you laugh, just wait and see. It’s all right. Day breaks the night.” Our inner Voice tells us that the sun always comes up again. It feels so right to know that we can get past the tears and laugh again.
“What’s done is past. Love’s all that lasts.” When it feels “cold in here,” we shall remember that love is the “good kind” of global warming.
