Be Open to Love!

TODAY'sQUOTES
"For me, the spiritual quest will be a life-long work in progress."

Dan Brown, best-selling author.

"As a rose can't live without the rain
So a heart can't love
without risk of pain"

- Anon

"The purpose of relationship is not to have another who might complete you ,but to have another with whom you might share your completeness."

Neale Donald Walsch, is an American author of the seriesConversations with God.

"The new female and the new male are partners on a journey of spiritual growth. They want to make the journey. Their love and trust keep them together. Their intuition guides them. They consult with each other. They are friends. They laugh a lot. They are equals .That is what a spiritual partnership is: a partnership between equals for the purpose of spiritual growth."

Gary Zukav, best-selling author.

Many times we wish and wish for the right person to come into our lives. We don't seem to understand why it's not working out with others. We end up in toxic, unloving relationships, and deep down know something better is out there.

The challenge is, when something better does come along, to not run away.

After years of disappointment, heart break and unhappy endings, it can be very easy to close down on real love. No matter what, don't' let that happen!

Remember, strength in the muscles of your body is created by your muscles being ripped apart, and then rebuilt. Your heart and your emotional intelligence and fitness operate the same way. It is easy to close down after you've been hurt. It's easy to throw a wrench into real love when it comes. I understand it's scary, but WHO CARES!

Move forward in spite of your fear. Move forward INTO the scariness of it all. Be courageous. Don't let fear win. OPEN UP anyway. The risk of not opening, in the end, is far worse than the risk of opening. Don't let love pass you by. Don't let fear win.

NO! Instead, let love win. Open up, even when, you are afraid. Open up, even when you are scared of getting hurt. Open up, even when you don't know what's going to happen.

Listen to me: LOVE WILL PASS YOU BY if you always choose the safe path.

I am not suggesting that you open up to the first person who comes along. No. I am not suggesting that at all. I am suggesting that when you have a connection with someone, when you feel it, when you are so scared of how much you feel it, go in the opposite direction of your fear. Do not be afraid of the love you feel.

KNOW THIS: The right person will meet you. The right person will show up. But they can't if you don't open.

Learn to value openness and rebuilding your heart more than safety. Don't let the wounds of the past create a wounded future. No. It can be different. Love can be yours. But first you must be open to it. Learn how to be more loving from your past pain, not how to be more closed.

Don't give up on love, no, give IN TO love!
