Exchange or extend Love

Believing love is what we exchange with others, or thyself, is similar to sleep walking. The mind is convinced it knows what it sees and experiences, yet it stumbles in a seemingly uncontrolled state of unremembered dreaming. What the mind actually perceives in this state of dazed awareness is just specialness and fragmentation.

Shifting quantities and occurrences of affection leading deeper into the habitual patterns of grasping, longing, and searching. Love is eventually accepted as being beyond reach, perhaps once held for the briefest moment, now permanently lost or only to return with great sacrifice and compromise. A pathway leading deeper into dependency and disappointment.

Question the reality of what seems to be perceived and experienced in contrast to the messages beyond and behind them. The inner echoes of doubt and assurance confuse, and seem to produce incompatible sounds. Resistance weakens as fear subsides and one is willing to acknowledge this disoriented and anxious state of being. A quiet inner contemplation arises in stillness.

Awakening to loves call occurs when one is ready to surrender active sleepwalking. Having no conditions or clauses; unwilling to reembody a misunderstood identity of mistaken beliefs. With need released, being love knows love is All-being. Projections of personal relations formed from shifting reservations, categorisations and allotments, once the accepted norms of relating, are revealed as benevolent buffers and bumpers nudging us to full acceptance and reunion with Self.

Allowing the light of truth within we recognise “what I actually seek is union with what I Am”.
