The Enigma of Love (part 1)

The Enigma of Love Part 1

In life, we have travelled a long hard path. Living here, is like living in a psychic battle field. Our Journey here has been one of seeking our identity, our place in life, and the search to find someone who would really love and accept us, just as we are. This deep longing for love, and to be loved, is as ancient as the land around us. No Soul seeks to live life alone, only evil does, or unless they are dealing with great emotional pain. To seek love, is as natural as eating, or sleeping. To desire ones perfect mate, is the dream to all of us

However, everything that we desire in our lives comes with a cost. This is a fact that very few understand, and accept. Those who understood this universal law of giving, live a most gratifying, and blessed life of all its abundance.

Most relationships fail, because the lesson of love has not been learnt. Many people have expert knowledge and skill in their chosen professional field. However, when it comes loving successfully and winning a soul mate, most do very poorly on this. Love is an art, and a successful person who has not mastered the art of loving, has not mastered his life.

When we entered into this life, we came with an open heart. The Child always loves, and we ‘re the loving child, when we were small. This ability to love, is part of our nature, and part of our identity. In the family home, childhood traumas, with whom the father was not loving and giving, still exist that changed the child's view of being open and loving.

The view of the self is altered, damaged, and scared by the views of those around us. We become too analytical when an act of giving calls upon us, we become fearful, we experience a new novelty as a threat, and this becomes painful, and tragically, leads to failure, the easy access is to give up a potential lover, not because the new arrived lover has anything wrong with them, but because of our perception, and belief systems of fear, doubt, that pollute the novelty. When we are searching for love as adults, we took these old damaged views, beliefs, and feelings of love with us.

As we got older, we also became more careful, others become too cautious. We perceive each new person as a replica of our ex lovers. Eventually, we came to the realization that love really did equal pain, and entrenched the old childhood fears even deeper. At this point some of us remained the same, and some moved ahead, developed their spiritual side, psycho-sociological and philosophical view that allowed them to live and love successfully.

Most of the failures of relationships are also due to lack of clarity of purpose, of what I would like to create for the other, give, share, empower, and love spontaneously.
Our true love journey continues to unfold….
