I believe it is said so well by Neale Donald Walsch today. “On this day of your life, dear friend, I believe God wants you to know…that love is not what you want, it is what you are. It is very important to not get these two confused.
If you think that love is what you want, you will go searching for it all over the place. If you think love is what you are, you will go sharing it all over the place. Do you see how the second approach will reveal to you what the searching never will?
Yet you cannot give love in order to get it. Doing so is ultimately saying you do not already have it. And that statement will, of course, be your reality. No, you must give love simply because you have it to give. In this way you will experience your own possession of it.”
Finding that place of love as the lens to look at ourselves and others is much more freeing than blame, shame and judgment.
Here’s to being the love that we each are,
Bonnie
