A Dream in Motion… and the First Phase Has Arrived! 🎉

Today, I am filled with gratitude and excitement to share a milestone that many of you helped make possible.

The first phase of Love in Motion Caribbean is here!

We have officially received our first fleet of 65 pairs of roller skates for youth and adults!

To everyone who donated, shared our GoFundMe, encouraged us, believed in this vision, or simply cheered us on—thank you. You are part of this moment. Every contribution, no matter the size, helped move this dream closer to reality.

These skates are more than equipment. They represent opportunities for children, families, and our community to experience movement, connection, confidence, healing, and joy.

While this is a huge milestone, our journey is just beginning.

We are still raising support for:
🛼 Safety equipment (helmets, wrist guards, knee pads, and elbow pads)
📦 Safe storage and organization for our growing skate fleet
🔧 Skate maintenance and repairs
🚐 Transportation and mobile pop-up operations
🏟️ Rental of community spaces for our programs
And ultimately, our long-term dream: a permanent Love in Motion Center for Movement and Community, serving Puerto Viejo, the surrounding communities, and the entire Caribbean region of Costa Rica.

This vision has never been just about roller skating. It’s about creating a place where people of all ages can gather, move, grow, build friendships, discover confidence, and experience the power of community.

If you would like to continue supporting this journey, every donation, every share, and every word of encouragement helps us move one step closer.

Please support our GoFundMe https://gofund.me/d6546fcb9

From the bottom of my heart—thank you for believing in Love in Motion.

This is only the beginning.

💜 With gratitude,
Sharon Love

Listening to the Body: The Intelligence Within

After my interruption, I found myself asking a simple question:

Am I really listening to my body?

We spend so much time in our heads. The mind is a remarkable tool—a library filled with memories, experiences, fears, lessons, and stories. It constantly compares the present moment to everything we’ve lived before.

But what if there is another kind of intelligence?

What if the body has been speaking all along?

For me, it begins with the heart. Before the mind analyzes, calculates, or talks us out of something, there is often a feeling, a knowing, a quiet nudge. Some call it intuition. Some call it inner wisdom. Some call it the Holy Spirit. Whatever name you give it, many of us have experienced that gentle voice that says, “Pay attention.”

The mind can be a wonderful servant, but sometimes it becomes a loud advisor, pulling old fears and past experiences into decisions that belong in the present.

My interruption reminded me to slow down long enough to hear what my body was saying.

Not just my thoughts.

My body.

My breath.

My energy.

My heart.

The question isn’t whether our bodies are communicating. The question is:

Are we listening?

As I prepare for what’s next with Love in Motion, this season is about rebalancing, resyncing, and reconnecting with that inner guidance that has always been there.

Because sometimes the greatest wisdom isn’t found by thinking harder.

Sometimes it’s found by listening deeper.
Feeling more.

After sharing The Great Interruption and my experience with AFib, I want to continue the conversation.

Life didn’t stop after that moment. In fact, some of the most beautiful things I’ve done since then have happened afterward—including launching Love in Motion and bringing our first community skate event to life.

But here’s what I’m learning:

Just because we can keep moving doesn’t mean we shouldn’t stop and listen.

Right now, after an incredible event, I’m taking time to rebalance, reset, and reconnect with myself before preparing for what’s next. Not because something is wrong, but because I’ve learned that our bodies are always communicating with us.

Some call it intuition.
Some call it the Holy Spirit.
Some call it a gut feeling.

Whatever you call it, there is often a quiet voice within us that whispers long before the body starts screaming.

This next video is about learning to listen.

Are we paying attention when our bodies speak?
Are we honoring the signals before they become interruptions?

I’d love to hear your thoughts.

✨ LOVE IN MOTION — COMMUNITY SKATE GATHERING ✨

Okay… it’s our time. We’re up next 💜🛼

This Sunday, May 17th, from 4PM until sunset, we’ll be gathering together for our first soft skate meet-up here in Puerto Viejo.

This is for:
🛼 Skaters who already have skates
💜 Friends & family of skaters
🌴 Those excited about the Love in Motion skate movement and upcoming skate rentals

This Sunday will be more of a relaxed community gathering and connection space rather than the official launch. Our bigger celebration will happen once the skates arrive and DJ Omolu (Dave) and Family returns 🎶 💜🙏🏾💜

This Sunday Sk8 Guy will provide speaker and music.

And because this is about community too…

Rasta Walter who is normally there on Sundays will have his traditional Rasta water, beans & rice, chicken, and possibly fish plates available for sale 🍛🌺

Tara will be serving up pizza 🍕

Bring your skates, your people, your good energy, and your island spirit ✨

If you have chairs, feel free to bring them if you’d like to sit, relax, and watch the skating and hang out!

And please, please, please hydrate 💧☀️
Bring water and electrolytes if you need them. We’ll also have pipas and bottled water available.

Come vibe with us.
Come roll with us.
Come build with us.

Mother’s Day Reflections

Some pictures are more than pictures… they are moments that hold a feeling you can never recreate again.

For the people who really know me… you know why this photo means so much.

My daughters have created so many beautiful memories for me over the years — birthdays, Mother’s Days, surprises filled with love — but this moment touched me differently.

The two of them surprised me by showing up at the skating rink together.

What made it so special wasn’t just that they came…
it was where they came.

Skating has always been a part of my spirit.
A place where I feel free.
A place where I heal.
A place where I become fully myself.

And to have both of my daughters there with me in that space…
rolling together…
laughing together…
sharing something that has carried me through so much life…

it became one of those moments I knew instantly:
“This will stay with me forever.”

What makes it even more precious is that life has never quite lined us up to have that moment again.

But I still look forward to the day the three of us roll together again.

Some moments don’t need perfection.
They just need presence.

And this one meant everything to me. 🎉💜🙏🏾💜🛼

In a World Full of Illusions and Chaos
Remember…

Peace is not a picture.
Not a post.
Not the perfect outfit, destination, relationship, or filtered moment.

Peace is a state of mind.

A quiet place within yourself
where fear no longer controls the narrative.
Where your spirit learns to breathe
even when life is uncertain.

Peace is the decision
to no longer wage war against your own soul.
It is alignment.
Trust.
Stillness in the middle of movement.

Sometimes peace looks like tears.
Sometimes it looks like walking away.
Sometimes it looks like beginning again.

But real peace…
is when your mind, body, and spirit
finally agree to live in harmony.

Here’s the part people don’t see…

The Back Story…A Year Ago

You can be doing all the right things—
moving your body, eating right, staying committed…
and life can still interrupt you.

And life can still interrupt you…

and how you respond in that moment
matters more than anything.

I’ll share that with you next. “The Big Interruption.”

“Love in Motion… it’s not just roller skating.
It’s about choosing to stay in motion… in life.

As I Sage 😉, I understand something deeper now—
this body requires commitment.

Movement is my medicine.
Not sometimes… every day.

It’s how I heal.
It’s how I stay strong.
It’s how I honor myself.

So whatever that looks like for you…
just start moving.”

At 62, I don’t move because it’s cute…
I move because it’s necessary.

Movement is my medicine.
It’s how I heal.
It’s how I stay here.

This body deserves commitment.
Every single day.

If this speaks to you… don’t wait.
Start where you are.
