About Susie♥

 Hi there…..♥

Thanks for dropping by for a visit. I think of it like we are sitting having a ‘virtual chat’ over a cuppa.  I invite and look forward to your regular sharing on my blog via the  Comments.

It is a honour that you are here on my blog reading and sharing in this journey with me.

My partner ♡Shelton and I love travelling to new places in the world as well as exploring new places in our relationship, whilst not forgetting the landscape of our own inner worlds….So for me it is somewhat like having you as a travel companion for whichever legs of the trail that attract and call to you.

 

walk the ♥Heart Path…

 

 

“Look at every path closely and deliberately.
Try it as many times as you think necessary. Then ask yourself and yourself alone one question. This question is one that a very old man asks…Does this path have a heart? If it does, the path is good. If it doesn’t it is of no use.” ~♡Carlos Castaneda

Walking and teaching the ♥HEART PATH is my life’s work and play.

How can I more deeply ♡LOVE today is the most important question of every day for me…both others and myself. I invite YOU to consider and make this choice as well.

A key intention with Susie’s ♥Heartpathblog is to provide a space where you can connect with me and with the community of those who on the ♥HEART PATH of conscious relationships and where you can share your opinion and let your voice be heard…

A space where you can connect with people:
– who choose to create and live in a Zero Negativity  Zone (ZNZ Zone),
– who are curious about and honour and validate the reality of ‘the other’,
– who know how to and do ‘cross the bridge’ into the world of ‘the other’,
– who daily make choices and actions about becoming and being more ♡LOVE-ing,
– who care that their partners and families and friends and the wider community feel ♡LOVE-d and ♡LOVE-able and respected.

I believe investing in ♡LOVE-ing is the highest choice any of us can make….

Being ‘rich’ in all other areas of life – including our profession or occupation, income, assets or health, etc. doesn’t have as much meaning as it does when you have a solid foundation in feeling ♡LOVE-ing, ♡LOVE-d and ♡LOVE-able.

As Castaneda so elegantly puts it:
“….Does this path have a heart? If it does, the path is good. If it doesn’t it is of no use.”

My wish is to connect and relate to you from my heart and mind and soul to your heart and mind and soul …..whilst sharing information and Resources about relationships and ♡LOVE-ing.

I am a passionate networker and committed to connecting people to the abundance of Resources that are available. I believe much of what we need is out there, yet people don’t even know the Resources are there, or if they do where to find them. I love putting people in touch with opportunities and possibilities…

Ask yourself what makes you come alive,

And then go do that.

Because what the world needs is people who have come alive.”

“My hope and wish is that one day, formal education will pay attention to what I call ‘education of the heart.’ Just as we take for granted the need to acquire proficiency in the basic academic subjects, I am hopeful that a time will come when we can take it for granted that children will learn, as part of the curriculum, the indispensability of inner values: love, compassion, justice, and forgiveness.”
