If you never had hurt feelings, you would love unconditionally. It is thoughts about yourself that prevent you from loving with your whole heart. You believe that someone loves you one minute and not the next, and so conditions are born, and you respond accordingly. You believe that love can be withdrawn, and so you withdraw. You believe that love does not really belong to you, neither as a receiver or giver.
Sometimes you measure out the love according to how much you feel you are given. You will go only so far in giving love, and no further. You think you have to follow the pace set for you.
Beloved, what if you are the one to set the pace? What if you are an all-giver, and you give all your love all the time? Where do hurt feelings enter in? What if you really have no thought of return?
I do not mean that you slobber love all over. I mean that you acknowledge the love you are, and so you give love, not based on ego, but based on Vastness. Not based on How much or How little. Not based on perceived merit, but based on love as the stream of life.
Why shouldn’t you pour out your love wherever you are and under whatever circumstances? Why should anyone or anything displace your God-given love?
Come from the premise that there can be no lack of love. You cannot run out of love. Love is not apportioned piecemeal. It is not given out in percentages, or, the only percentage it is given is 100%. Since when are you supposed to give less than what is given to you? Even a little less is much too less.
You are not to hoard love. You are not to keep it in reserve. The measure of your love is not to be set by anything or anyone outside you. Love is not a commodity to be bargained with as at a street fair. Love is not a commodity. It is not on the stock market. Love must be given freely without obstruction. All the obstructions you see or fear are imaginary. Love, beloveds. Just love, and be done with it. Make the decision once and for all that nothing will block the free giving of your love.
You will no longer set aside some of your love. No longer will your love be apportioned here, and not there. No longer will you tease with your love, holding it up and taking it back. You will be consistent with love. There will simply be no holds barred to your giving of love. Love does not have to be earned. It is not a salary to be paid. Love is love and nothing else but love.
Constricted love is love constricted. If you restrict the love you give, you are not giving your full share. Love is not to be given minimally. It is to be given abundantly.
Remove your ego from love, and you will love the way you are meant to love. You will never withdraw love. Your love will never be dependent upon anything but itself. You will love fully and always. Make the decision now, and then forget about it. When the dams of love are opened, they are opened. You will simply love without thought of it.
You will find yourself enjoying even those you did not enjoy before. With love, all things are possible. You are a harbinger of love, and now is the time to strike with love. The real thing. Today you love. Tomorrow you love. You love regardless. You are meant to love with all your heart. Start now. It is My Will.
