Quote of the Week

“Have patience with everything unresolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves, as if they were locked rooms or books written in a very foreign language. Don’t search for the answers, which could not be given to you now, because you would not be able to live them. And the point is to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps then, some day far in the future, you will gradually, without even noticing it, live your way into the answer.”

Rainer Maria Rilke

Why is love so hard?

March 27, 2008

Spring, a beautiful time to renew!

"What barrier is there that love cannot break? Mahatma Gandhi

I speak tremendously on the subject of love in my work with people. Why is it that we often feel so contracted as though the love is really hard to create or give and receive? How did it become so hard to truly create loving relationships? Well the answer is FEAR. We have been living in fear that we are not loved or that our love will not be accepted. This makes us contracted and then we try less and less to really connect with those around us because we are afraid of the reaction we might get. The answer is to realize the truth again. We are the love we seek each and every one of us is. So if we then truly believe this and know we are filled with love, we are loved and we ARE LOVE itself how can we then touch others with this love? What would you do if you knew you couldn’t fail?

Try approaching your mate, parenting partner, kids, friends and co-workers with this approach of being the love rather than expecting the love. Remember that every person you come into contact with needs three things to be well, to be loved, to be valued and to feel like they belong. Imagine what it would be like to know you changed someone's whole day perhaps their whole view of themselves by just touching their hearts in a loving way without any expectation that that love comes back to you, just for free and for fun! See how many you can touch in a day and then notice how your day is the best day you've ever lived!!

Please look for the article in Bellissima Magazine about the breath and how we can direct it for our emotional/physical and spiritual health. www.bellissimasandiego.com a wonderful magazine with great information about health and well being in San Diego, written by San Diegans.
Choose to be your highest self all day and watch how your day unfolds with joy, love, ease and grace. You will find there really is no other way to live. Remember who you are and where you came from!!

Sending light,

Karen
