1 - Otalia - The Velocity of Love (S. Ciani)

NO COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT INTENDED Video clips from "Guiding Light" the Otalia storyline; Poem excerpts from "Containers of Divine Love" by Joyce Rupp; Music by Suzanne Ciani "The Velocity of Love."

Dedicating this to my bestfriend. I just want you to know you are loved. I hope you like this video as much as I enjoyed making it.

Guiding Light was not shown in my country but thanks to youtube, I came to enjoy and appreciate the richness, depth and sensitivity of the Otalia (Olivia and Natalia) story that transcends gender, race, age, social class, etc.

CONTAINERS OF DIVINE LOVE
by Joyce Rupp

God of affection, devotion, passion, tenderness, and all forms of love, this day we thank you for the myriad ways that we have been given a touch of your goodness. We thank you for your may beneficient gestures:
...love that draws us to friendship and fidelity,
...love that leads us to kindness and compassion,
...love that stirs in our flesh and dances in our bones,
...love that lures us toward the sacred and serene,
...love that calls us to new vision and growth,
...love that soothes our heartaches and gentles our pain,
...love that sees worth in each human being,
...love that believes in us and whispers with hope,
...love that sings in the seasons and sighs in the wind,
...love that taps on the door of forgiveness,
...love that longs for peace among all humankind,
...love that surprises and fills us with awe,
...love that sings praise for the face of earth's beauty,
...love that offers the hand of warm welcome,
...love that respects those who won't come too near,
...love that urges us to take risks and have courage,
...love that goes out to those from afar,
...love that embraces the shadow in us,
...love that sheds the old skin and welcomes the new,
...love that ripens our souls for the final journey home.

Source of Love, we offer thanks for how you are abiding in all of these forms of love. May the hearts we give and receive this Valentine's Day remind us of you, the One Great Heart, holding us all in the tenderness of your love.

@Flutterblossom thanks. Love your name, by the way. :) This was the first time I came to watch Otalia and fell in love instantly. This video was a response to an O thread forum moderated by Lenafreed where I summarized by Top 10 Otalia episodes. Otalia is truly an amazing story.
