Getting Off The Rollercoaster

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 centred 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 centred 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 fulfilment, 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.

YOUR WORTH IS AS EQUAL TO THE WORTH THAT YOU SEE IN OTHERS:

To Love yourself is a good thing. Old fashioned Ego thinking wants to guide our thoughts to the likes of...

"Don't be so conceited".

... but self Love is not associated with pride, it is associated with acceptance. It is linked to understanding as we continue to try our best. We are kind to ourselves, just as we are kind to others.

So often, we are sympathetic to the plight of others, but when it comes to ourselves we can be very intolerant of our own mistakes. It is the Ego which drags us down, telling us as a response to a foolish choice,...

"Never never do that thing again"

...yet after some time has passed, it would continue to chatter and say...

"Well; it really wasn't so bad.

it's really O.K., you're not hurting anyone".

But the truth in this thinking is that you are really hurting yourself.

The Ego can deliver strategies that might bring us to think that our place in life, our feelings, and the need for Love are unjustified. It would say...

"Stop thinking of yourself... Give your kindness to others

You're O.K... you've got enough..."
