I cried because it was clear that a certain group of people were targeted and that fear and hate were at the center of the shootings.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">For those of us living in the United States, we&#8217;re painfully aware of the recent mass shootings that have been taking place around the country. Almost every single one of them is sparked by anger, hatred of one group or another, and an unwillingness to accept people for who they are.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">I&#8217;m not going to preach or go into political matters. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Right now, I&#8217;m speaking from one heart that is breaking to another.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">More than anything, my mission in life &#8212;\u00a0the whole reason why Michelle and I have made Heart&#8217;s Desire our life&#8217;s work and purpose &#8212; is to bring transformation to this world through LOVE. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #800080;\"><strong>Where there is love, there is peace. \u00a0Where there is peace, people are free. \u00a0And where there is freedom, there is hope\u00a0and anything becomes\u00a0possible!<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Yes, we focus primarily on transformation through empowering women to create the relationships of their dreams. \u00a0So what does that have to do with these tragic events? \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Because, when there are women who are happy and fulfilled in and of themselves, they are able to attract and nurture\u00a0happy, loving, and fulfilling relationships. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">From these relationships,\u00a0many times, happy families are created and unhappy ones are healed and restored.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Where there are happy families and relationships, that love and happiness spreads to their\u00a0communities.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">When communities come together, states and nations are bound by love, peace, and partnership.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">And when nations come together in love, peace, and partnership, this world becomes one in which we are all living to our highest potential, where the desire to come together outweighs the need to be right, and where the highest priority becomes augmenting, magnifying, and spreading that love, peace, and hope so that no one is left out or left behind!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #800080;\"><strong>So, for us, this vision of what the world can be begins with one woman&#8230; one heart&#8230; and\u00a0one relationship at a time.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">During this difficult time, my prayer and heart-felt\u00a0request is that each of us does\u00a0all everything we can to bring love to this world. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Let us do what we can to conquer the hate, anger, and fear that is out there with the power we were born with: The power to love!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">I&#8217;d like to leave you with\u00a0the message\u00a0we posted yesterday on our Facebook page:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/HeartsDesireIntl\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-5073 \" src=\"http:\/\/heartsdesireintl.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/Post_after-Orlando-shooting_MLK-quote.png\" alt=\"Post_after Orlando shooting_MLK quote\" width=\"467\" height=\"623\" srcset=\"https:\/\/heartsdesireintl.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/Post_after-Orlando-shooting_MLK-quote.png 426w, https:\/\/heartsdesireintl.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/Post_after-Orlando-shooting_MLK-quote-225x300.png 225w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 467px) 100vw, 467px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00a0May peace be the air you breathe in, and may\u00a0love be\u00a0the air you exhale and share with the world.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>by Gladys Diaz You&#8217;ve probably heard about the tragedy that took place in Orlando this past weekend. \u00a0 I have to share that the moment I heard the news, I broke down and cried. \u00a0Not because I knew anyone who was hurt or killed. \u00a0That didn&#8217;t matter.
