You can only meet love in the way you are shown it….
Bare with me…
Love is such a complex thing… The word itself is so vague….. It means different things for each of us…
-romance
-touch
- buying things
- sex
- taking out the trash without being asked 😜
Thats why they have written books on languages of love.
We build definitions of the meaning of it through feelings and sensation and thoughts over time.
But in truth there are as many different types of love as there are words…
Sadly also wounds….
It becomes this complex thing to us… This perfect mix of expectations and chemistry.
But this isn’t love……… That is conditioning.
We are educated in love by how we are met with it…..
But when real love comes along we have no road map for it….. Each offering is a gift and a step further down an unknown path.
And often this is why we run or resist love…. Its new… And it pushes us into uncomfortable unknown territories.
We can feel threatened… Scared…. Intimidated…. Unworthy…..
But how rarely do we sit and allow love to wash over us…. To evolve us…. To remind us of who and what we are.
Love is truly just a journey back to what we already know… and what we already are.
Its just a reminder….. Truth.
But its the most complex simple truth we have….. Because everything that we “are” and have been and have been through gets in the way of us accepting love… Because it means accepting ourselves.
Love comes from within…. All the different words for it… All the different feelings and emotions…. Come from within…. Its not something someone puts inside if you… Yet reminds you of what is possible.
This is the greatest gift of existence….. And something we all strive for. It is actually the true meaning of life… And it’s right there…..
Try this with me.
Put your hand on your chest and close your eyes.
Think of love… What it means…. What it has been…. What it hasn’t…
What feeling comes?
Go allllllll the way into that feeling… Deeper.
What story have you been told about love….. What stories do you tell yourself about it….
Go into those stories…. Is love there? Or is it conditioning…. Fear… Or…..?
Feel your hand on your chest….. Feel the air in your lungs…. Feel the weight of your body… Feel the moment….. Just one…. If nothing else drop fully into one moment…. One breath….
And there is love…. Right there…. Welling up in you, from you.
The rest is dressing and gilded or tarnished promises.
Start here… Meeting yourself with love…. It’s time…. And you’ve been waiting soooo long!
