While vulnerability can be frightening, extraordinary love takes extraordinary vulnerability, because vulnerability deepens intimacy and intimacy unites souls at the frequency of Love.

As challenging as it is to stay true to yourself and speak and act accordingly in this world, it’s far easier than not to. The hardest part will be to remember who you are. The rest you already know how to do, because you are already you.

We have forgotten how to love and be loved, because love has become such a complicated matter. Many end up spending their life chasing the idea of love while putting up barriers to protect themselves from the pain of losing love.

During each occurrence, I found myself in a deep state of bliss, enveloped in an indescribable feeling of love, and crying tears of joy uncontrollably. I felt it from deep within, but also from above and around me.

Emotional abandonment is leaving our emotional needs unattended, often without acknowledging or addressing it with a response. That can leave us feeling confused, unsettled and unloved for a long time.

My life hasn’t been a walk in the park. I’ve been through many difficulties and spent years feeling lost and confused. Being a believer in reincarnation, I wondered often if I was being punished for something I’d done in a previous life.

In order to allow love to enter, our heart will have to be open to it. The wider it is open to receive, the greater the love will enter. The chance of heartbreak and disappointment will always be there… Our mind cannot separate us from love, it can only create fear.

The world we live in seldom encourages authenticity, at least not genuinely, I often feel. We may hear words of empowerment to be authentic, but when we do we are often reprimanded for being too real.

The subject of forgiveness comes up often in conversation, but I find that when it comes to the details of what that truly entails, what that process feels like is not actually talked about.

Vulnerability is an act of courage, that can lead us to deeper and more intimate connections. But being vulnerable is by no means easy or painless.

Trusting ourselves is a fundamental quality we must develop in order to trust others. We often see the world through our own lenses, therefore projecting our own self-doubts onto the people around us.

However, emotional meltdowns and life events do not stick to a planned schedule, and feeling depressed during this season can be lonely and frustrating because the environment seems too cheerful for anyone to understand.

If we are peaceful and compassionate beings at our core, then by logic, any other strong emotional responses are preprogrammed or taught by external environments.

When you experience life by means of only happiness, fear, doubt, and insecurities become so obscured that you no longer pay attention to them. They become ever so insignificant because your focus on creating happiness is larger than life itself.

Life events are arbitrary and most of us don’t get to practice each scenario over and over again until we get it right. We are often put in a position to respond to whatever is thrown at us unexpectedly.
