The Inner Journey
Getting Off the Roller Coaster
A GOOD WAY TO LOVE.
There is only one true way to Love. It is without exception and without
demands. It is accepting and forgiving. It is understanding of faults and
mistakes, and finds no fault in being human. It is always kind, and is always
willing to give what it has to offer. It does not expect anything in return,
because its cup is never empty. It rejoices when a Truth is discovered, and
shares in the Joy of another regardless of self. It is willing and free to
help carry other peoples burdens, because with Love there is no burden to
great. With Love, there are always answers to our problems. It sees the needs
of others and recognises the things that can helpful in fulfilling those
needs; for when those things have been discovered, there is always simplicity
and joy associated with the giving.
Love enhances, Love advances. It is opened eyes and opened hearts,
receptive and eager to please, and it is always willing to believe. Love is
mutual, Love is harmony; just as the magnificence of a symphony comes into
being through the individual tunes of individual instruments...they are alone
yet together. Such is the harmony of a life centered on Love.
This is unconditional Love.
To Love someone truly is to Love all parts of that person. Unconditional
Love simply exists. It is not expectant of certain conditions to be
maintained. It just is... and all that it wants is for itself to be shared. If
you want this type of Love, then it is yours. It will never be a burden or
make demands, for it alone is free; it is centered from within and delights in
giving.
SPECIAL LOVE:
When we Love all people, we are not IN LOVE with all people, but we are one
with them as we journey together through life. If we are so blessed as to have
someone in our life who gives us deep meaning and fulfillment, then to share
such a Love like this is to share more than a life, it is to share a way of
life. To have such a special Love in a lasting relationship based on
unconditional Love is to possess a magnificent Love. For a woman and a man to
be united in unconditional Love, is the kind of Love that poets have been
writing of for centuries. It is not a dream Love, it does exist. It is a
powerful Love, yet it is a simple and uncomplicated Love. It is a Love that
endures, and it's available to all ... if you so choose.
ACCEPTANCE THROUGH UNDERSTANDING:
Through learning to accept your past mistakes, you are in fact learning to
forgive yourself. You are able to do this because you are the closest that
anyone can be to you. You understand your situation more and more clearly as
you grow in Love and awareness. With this concept in mind, you can be sure
that there are people all over the world striving to be whole. They feel as
you do, and they are searching for understanding and acceptance through Love.
But we cannot know all aspects of all such people, and we do not need to
have such a deep knowledge. Part of loving unconditionally is related to
living in the "THE NOW". As you may have forgiven someone
else for a distant and past event, the same must hold true for mistakes that
are with you now that remain unresolved. The past is gone and all that really
matters is the time you are living right now. As long as you are ready to
respond with first actions that are based on Love, then not only will you find
your own continued peace, but you will also bring about a more thorough
resolution to the problems of those who are close and dear to you, as well as
those whose lives cross our paths from time to time.
