Do You Feel You Need To Control Love

Love is not a thing. Yes, it is an emotion and that can call it something, however love is not shown with body nor words, love is felt only. The stems of love come from trust, safety in growth, and trust again. When trust is pierced love is injured. Injured love brings about behaviors in souls that they do not know how to account for fully, since they may not know the stems of their loss of trust that brings about second guessing love. You see, souls at times, test love to see if it will withstand us. Love is not a thing to be tested. Love simply is. When it is pushed and prodded it responds with pushes and prods. It is simply reflective of the soul who is living it in the ways in which it is understood to them. There is not a surprise that your current partner or any partner, for the partner of choice is irrelevant, you will have the same outcome as long as you are the same stimulus. You see, our love, on Earth the struggles to live in love are complex as a soul is willing to take on or as simple as a soul is willing to take on. If you are confused, you will have confusing relationships, if you are feeling at peace, you will as well have a relationship that is of peace. You will bring to your surroundings what you live within yourself. So you may at this point be asking yourself why you are making such a complex deal about simple loving.

Ego and Soul can never combine. You can not work with your ego and pretend it is your soul speaking. Love is from the soul and ego has a way of taking away from souls in ways they can not comprehend, nor do they recognize when ego is involved. You may believe you have the purest of intent, however it is not if you expect from others what YOU expect from them without considering them and their feelings. As you walk away for YOUR reasons and come back for YOUR reasons the other person will start feeling left out of the equation. And when you go back, and explain why you have done what you have done, it is for YOUR cleansing. If you did not feel the need to do that to clean YOURSELF up, you would not have gone back to ease the other persons hurts and pains. As you discover your own hurts, instead of it joining the two of you together, it is back to you not feeling like you deserve love and you start testing the person to a point that they could truly do no right and then you find yourself needing to leave, or being left. When a soul is not with you you respect them, because then you think they are right on and they did not buy what you were selling, since you were not sure what it is your selling and when they go away from you, you respect them again, want them again, for then you will feel normalized to have gained them again and you can feel like you still have it. It is not about love, it is about control, and keeping balance between your ego and your soul. On Earth there is no balance between ego and soul. It will vacillate you until you are endless with reasons why. There are not real reasons why.

Ego is not detailed in reasons, it is detailed in derailments. Your soul is your guide. Jumping in without fear of what it will mean, if you will get hurt, if you are already hurt, it is innocent in it's venture. You see pure intent is the key. One ounce of pure intent or pure love, will overcome every obstacle provided it is pure. It is when you go and seek love without needing anything in return from it. You don't need recognition. Or the other person responding to you in any way. That you are clean with your intentions. You see, when your intentions are clear to your soul, it is not the result of any action that matters, it is the process and the joy of living in the moments. Pure intent does not mind so much about time, about where anything is coming or going, it is simply the truth of the moment. Pure intended moments are the moments all humans remember throughout their lifetimes. All others are quickly forgotten or over analyzed. What you can not see, due to over thinkments of your actions and that is the clouded feeling of feeling like you are missing something. What you are missing is not a fact or that you did not figure this all out. Love is not to be figured out. Love is lived. Love is speaking and letting go. Living and letting others live as well. Not as you want them to, however as they would like to and sharing that. Love is the greatest reflection of how we all see the world and how we think it should be. However shoulds in anything means those are the things not happening, and all that is happening gets unnoticed because of the shoulds. There are not shoulds. Again and again, love is simply living in the day, in the moment in your truth with another. That is love. There is not control attributed in that sentence nor is it attributed in any other fashion of love.

Sustainable Love

We expect so much from love
We want it to make us happy
We want it to take care of the rest of our lives
When....it comes

Love is always here
Yet it doesn't recognize itself
With all our conditions

It can only be love if so and so is cute
It can only be love if it is what makes me look good
It can only be love if it is what I wanted it to be,

We don't even let love surprise us anymore
We expect so much from it that when it is here we walk right by it like it wasn't there
A person tells you they love you and we even find a way to not believe them
And continue treating them as though they do not

We will believe that someone who gives us no attention loves us, because we desire them
And then someone who speaks in love to us, we discount
That alone is a lot more telling in itself

We respect those who don't love and want them too, that is the challenge
And we release those who love us because we don't respect them for loving us, because we don't love ourselves yet!
That is a no win situation

Love is love is love
Yes, I said this before
And Yes, it is worth saying again

Living in the moment allows you to love without expectation
That in this moment, I love my job, I am not waiting for another to love again
I love my spouse, I am not going to let my misunderstanding taint my love and thoughts of them
I love my children, even on days when they don't love so much themselves

Love is the challenge of our souls discovery
To say I love myself too much and others too much to want to take away from that
I don't want to hurt the "us" we have become in life to win for a moment
Our life is a series of moments
I understand that now
If someone came to me and took away from me that I came to with love, It would start to pierce our trust
I don't want to do that

Go to those you love and remember this is what love is
The way you are now with love is the way you will be in any new situation that comes along with love
Love isn't postponed or better because you do not know the recipient yet
That is a trick of the mind that the grass really is greener on the other side
The grass is already green and if you can't see that now, it is even harder to see it coming

Love is a state of mind
Love is a way of being
Love is what we turn it into
And Love is not a chore
Love breeds greater love
Since understanding love breeds greater understanding of many more things
Love is patient
Love does not compete
Love is open ended
And Love is not timed or has an expiration date

WE have taken liberty on many angles of life
Yet love is still most important to all of us

It is time to let love be what it is
A healer of us
A natural medication to our souls
The glue that bonds us together
And love doesn't just disappear, we disappear

No more fooling ourselves with love
It is too strong an emotion to say No to, yet we haven't learned how to say Yes to it all the way
We have left love in the middle of the road and sometimes it gets hit and it doesn't understand why
Yet it always comes back fighting for itself

Let Love teach us in many more ways who we are
It has a lot to teach us
And if we can just say Yes, that we will live in our moments, understand the love that is present
It will slow us down from searching so feverishly for something we are standing in front of
It will give us the will to look forward to future love as we share love in this day
And it will allow us to see future love when it arrives

It will give us more to share of ourselves rather than expect so much from it
And the rewards of the truth of love is yours
We can only attract to us, the completeness we feel
Understanding love in this way, can only attract love in this way to you
It is called recognition

Meat and Potatoes

What you have in common is your key
What you do not is your acceptance
And what you like or do not like is your tolerance
And what you are not knowing of yet is your growth

Anyone can have sex, however can anyone have a relationship
A partnership
We all know how to meet
Yet do we all know how to stay
How to stand still in compromise when things do not go our way
When we are scared to have the love of another
And we want to run away just because we do not know what else to do

A relationship is our growing ground
And in the best case scenario
In safety
To grow and still be loved

It is a very hard thing to do when you are in argument
and then rekindle the parts where we like being vulnerable
And we open ourselves to loving in the freedom of how see love rather than what love is supposed to look like

We can decide that, we can choose to stay and fight
Fight for an us
For a place to stay
for what love can mean if we let it

It is our acceptance of us,
Of each of us
And then the bigger us
It is the compromise that we miss when we are alone
And the promise we feel when we are together

Our lives are meant for many things
And one big one is getting along
With ourselves
And then with others
That is both the meat and the potatoes
It is the meal
It is the balance
It is not having to choose one or the other
It is living in love as you know it, learn it, breath it, look for it and become it

Our love already exists in us
Postponing it because we are waiting for lightning to strike
Rather than a partnership
A look rather than a person
Stuff instead of love first
Then we have found every way around love and not in it

In it, as we find over time is the only way to go
And we would give everything to know it
So know it
We would give everything to meet someone
So let yourself
Without judgment
Warmth does not have a look
Truth does not have a price tag
And love does not have one definition

Fill your plate
With all your thoughts in real life
And real life exceeding your dreams
That is when you know you found life in life
And life in heart
Warmth in soul
And balance that extends itself to your home, your relationships, your work

Unopened Gifts

Finally a day to say
To remind ourselves
To remember
To speak out loud

How do I forgive myself
That is one unopened gift
How do I have compassion for myself
Yet another unopened gift

We speak in life, I have been able to forgive....another
I can now go on
Yet what is forgiveness?
How do you forgive yourself?

To forgive is to say I have not learned
Compassion will speak that you have learned

You see, it is not about forgiveness at all
Forgiveness says that you will overlook and get over something that hurt you
Whether you did it to yourself or to someone else
It is to say, that you have not learned the lesson so you will forgive the action
And then what?
Do you just go on forgiving forever and not going further as to why you are doing it or allowing someone else to do it to you?

Compassion to yourself, to others, to say, Yes, this happened, whatever it is, and we will learn from it
Compassion to understand the motives, the reasons and to say, I understand why you did this
Is there another way to get what you need
Without hurting yourself or others

In teaching children
There are three rules of discipline to follow
Don't hurt yourself
Don't hurt others
Don't damage or destroy property

That is truth for all of us
If we don't hurt ourselves, we actually do not have a need to hurt others
Damaging or destroying property is usually a byproduct of being hurt

When we forgive ourselves or others we are acknowledging we are hurt or hurt another
Compassion is the step after, we can't just stop at forgiving
Compassion reminds us of the human part, the part where we gain self understanding and love
With words like
I know you didn't mean that
I know you are hurt already
I can see now your intentions are good for me, or maybe they are not
Is this a safe place for me to grow
Or is this teaching me this is not the place for me to stay and learn of life

Forgiveness is like a power play or relief button
Compassion finds a soulution, and landing place, a mutual caring for what results in what has happened
Compassion is the way to get past anyone having to forgive anything
It is the place where we learn why, not just what
Where we see motivation rather than action only
Where we grow within ourselves, then someone else

Self accounting, self love, growth
It all starts in the solutions, not in the answers
Anyone can say yes or no
Yet the parts that say why are the growths
The parts that say why are the teachers
The moments of discovering are when you can go on and live past those moments

There is a vast difference between forgiveness and compassion
Compassion teaches love and forgiveness gives power to someone to grant it
Compassion soothes and grows and forgiveness is saying, I have forgiven you so many times, now what?
The crutches of living in doing and forgiving
Rather than speaking and learning
Breaks the cycle of not paying attention to yourself with excuses
And brings back the questions you had as a child

Why, is one of the greatest questions any child asks and doesn't stop until they find out

It is their happiness so that they can go out and play
They already understand that full disclosure is their freedom
Quietly as we "look" so much smarter than them
Look again, there is still an unopened gift under your tree
It is called Self Love

What A Spoon Can Tell You

When you walk past the sink, and it is clean
Are you the person who drops the spoon in
Or are you the one that walks by and cleans it
Do you only wash it if someone else is there
or do you leave it for someone else to take on your work

Are we really getting away with anything when we try not to do something
We try so hard to get out of this, get out of that

It is the truth as it is
You either do or you don't
Some wait until the sink is full
And others wash and dry as they go
Some keep the Oh I have to do this, to do that, before I can relax
When cleaning up as you go along
Cleans up your mind as you think along, speak to another, or even watch a program on TV

That spoon really tells its own story
Do you hold onto your stuff
Do you let it go
Do you take things on right off
Or do you wait until you have piled up so much stuff inside
And you keep waiting for the day to clean it all up at once

Do you just eat your best everyday
Or are you the one who will diet tomorrow and eat everything in sight today?
Are you a planner or does everything all of a sudden happen to you?

Each of these types of people, they are all of us
Trying to say one thing when we are another is our biggest bluff
And the blaming of others, for who we are, has also been the bigger bluff

Once you clean up as you go along
You are just telling yourself the truth as you live your life
and those who threw it in and walk right by it
Are the pilers of everything else
They will not tell you first off what they actually mean
And they will only come clean when they are caught
And maybe not even then

Start washing the spoon in the clean sink
And you will find, you start finishing all the little things that start to take on weight much sooner
When you walk by, stop yourself and remind yourself it is your job too
No using others for you
and you will stop running from tasks and either decide to do them or not

Honesty isn't so far away
It is as simple as a dirty spoon, you either clean it or you don't

Love isn't so far away
You either share it or you don't

Truth is always around
And Purity is the cleanliness of your soul

Clean the spoon, Clear your mind, and go on to the next thing
Clutter is man made, not a natural part of us
Clean purifies as you cleanse
Cleansing is the weightlessness of our days, our thoughts, and how we are with others
Anything else is the delaying of our self love, until we finish all our tasks that we walk by
