I saw this quote today - can't remember where and it got me thinking.
What is Love anyways???
Definition from Wikipedia:
Love is any of a number of emotions and experiences related to a sense of strong affection. The word love can refer to a variety of different feelings, states, and attitudes, ranging from generic pleasure ("I loved that meal") to intense interpersonal attraction ("I love my girlfriend"). This diversity of meanings, combined with the complexity of the feelings involved, makes love unusually difficult to consistently define, even compared to other emotional states.
I think most people have been in love - one form or another....my real question is: Is it better to love someone.......or receive love?
And what about those people who are in love with love?? I fall in that category....I am a highly emotional person and am happiest giving, receiving and hearing about love. Just call me a love junkie. I believe one of the most beautiful forms of love is the unconditional love that occurs between mother and child (ok father and child tooo)...and recently I have discovered being a dog owner - the love of a dog for their owner. There is something so sweet, innocent and special about a dogs love for their owner.
Ok - enough about the L-word.... here is a thought from my daily Kabbalah newsletter...
Survival instinct is the most powerful force on Earth, without question. And it's the ego that holds the trophy for the strongest survival instinct of all. The ego doesn't want to die.
Ego wants to keep us all disconnected from peace, love and Light. It wants to keep each of us full of pain, fear and emotional turmoil. It would prefer we be the lamp in the corner covered with drapes of cloth, without even the tiniest bit of Light shining through. That's what it has always wanted - and it is willing to blind us with doubt in an attempt to desperately delay our progress and transformation.
Today, just say no to ego (ie. SAY NO TO YOUR DOUBTS!)
My daily wisdom - Live, Laugh, Love...
