Higher Love

To begin, I would like to write a little bit about my inspiration for the name of this blog. Some of you may already have figured out the reference and to others this may be something new. In any case, it comes from one of my favorite songs of all time called HIGHER LOVE by my most favorite band of all time, Depeche Mode. 

I added in the 'ONE' as I believe that we are all connected by this 'ONE' Higher Love, which some may also call GOD.  But no matter what you call it, I for one, know it is real and that this Higher Love is the thing that inspires me and fills my life with the greatest thing of all, LOVE!



I am including the lyrics to this song as well as a link to listen to it on YouTube. Sadly, there is no 'official' band video but I did find this mighty inspiring selection below.


This song has been an enormous inspiration in my life, as have many other Depeche Mode songs. But, this one in particular, as the message of surrender to something higher, to rising higher and higher, and of a burning in one's soul speaks directly to my deepest self and to my soul.


As I move more and more into my own passions and purpose in this life, I realize that the more I give in, or surrender, allowing all that the universe has in store for me, the more incredible my life becomes and the endless amount of possibilities and LOVE that is there for me and for all.


So, sit back, relax, and enjoy the HIGHER LOVE that is waiting for you too!

Higher Love


Lead singer: Dave Gahan

I can taste more than feel

This burning inside is so real

I can almost lay my hands upon
The warm glow that lingers on
Moved, lifted higher
Moved, my soul's on fire
Moved, by a higher love


I surrender all control
To the desire that consumes me whole


And leads me by the hand to infinity
That lies in wait at the heart of me


Moved, lifted higher
Moved, my soul's on fire
Moved, by a higher love


Heaven bound on the wings of love
There's so much that you can rise above


Moved, lifted higher
Moved, moved, by a higher love

By a higher love


I surrender heart and soul
Sacrificed to a higher goal


Moved, moved by a higher love

By a higher love
