Here's one from the Spanish section of Sheilah's website:

[i went over there for a little more homespun wisdom]

Soy el Amor, la fuente más poderosa de energía

 

Aside: Pete, I know that you are a Spanish speaker... have you

checked out the Spanish section of her site?

 

Anyway... that one is pretty nice I thought (I can more or less read

Spanish). Actually, I think that Spanish is a nicer language than

English for such.

 

Yeah, it is so simple, and yet kinda slays me. Was thinking of

the song " Killing me softly " . You know, nothing more powerful

than softness is there?

 

Hey, Sheilah. We love ya gal!

 

Bill

 

PS: There isn't an English translation of the above on Sheila's site.

In fairness to non-Spanish readers feel I should try my hand.

I figure someone will give me a little help.

 

I am Love, a fount of boundless energy.

 

or even more interpretive...

 

I am the boundless power of Love.

 

 

This is not a literal translation, which seemed to me to lose

all the warm vibrance of the Spanish version. Hopefully my

" interpretive translation " loses *some* less than that.
