Love: The Alpha & the Omega

By Maryann Pino Miller

Trying to define the indefinable can get us into trouble. Thats what happened when we decided to define love. We set standards of action determining the existence and depth of the love being offered. We used our minds to define something only our hearts truly know anything about.

In her second book, Love The Alpha & The Omega, Maryann Pino Miller takes us on a journey of discovering love. We learn love already exists within us. In fact, we are love. We just forgot.

In this easy-to-read and relate-to book, we learn of the seven levels of love:

1. As babies we know we are love.
2. We forget and begin searching, filled with fear we will not find it.
3. We begin using words to convince ourselves we are okay.
4. We begin using uplifting, loving words to reset our energy and awareness of who we are.
5. We realize its safe to look at every aspect of ourselves and still accept ourselves as we are.
6. We fall in love with ourselves, allowing ourselves to live and love life fully.
7. Full circlewe now know that not only are we love, so is all of life. We love, honor and respect ourselves and all of life. We live from our being-ness.

Using her life twists and turns, we learn how Miller sorted through her life, using tools she picked up along the way. When the student is ready, the teacher will appear.

INTRODUCTION

Love is a many splendid thing…the movie and song of the same name tell us so. Not sure how many of us think, believe or feel that. I know I didn’t. Granted it had its moments but they seemed few and far between. And as I got older I realized how little I knew about it.

When I was guided to write my second book…about love, it came as no surprise, despite the fact I was so in the dark about it. I knew writing this book would give me the clarity and feeling for which I was searching. Maybe it will do the same for you. I love you.

CHAPTER ONE

F OR MANY YEARS, I have been playing with the

word and concept of love. Early on in my career

as a metaphysician, I realized whatever a client might believe his or her issue to be, a lack of love was at the core…specifically a lack of self-love.

So I began to concentrate on that in my own life.

To be able to help others find the tools to tap into self-love, I first had to examine my own journey.

It began more than two decades ago when I left home and moved in with a friend, while my (now ex) husband and I tried to work things out.

My friend told me that the main thing - the only thing - I needed to do was to love myself, to tell myself I loved myself. Every single day. How weird is that? I never had been told that before. Never considered it either.

A foreign concept…loving myself. Especially when society scolded people, often making them feel selfish or self-centered if they focused on themselves.

Being the good Catholic girl I am, however, I obeyed. And it was hard; I didn’t believe a word of it.

But at the time, I was aware of only one thing – my life of three decades was
