We can not hear love, nor can we see it. Certainly we know when we have it however, as we long for the person who we share this emotion with. We miss them, we want to protect them and we want to spend time with them.
Isn't it interesting that out of all the billions of people on this earth that we only find a few who we are capable of feeling this connection with. In fact some people seem to bring out a quite opposite feeling in us.
Yet we do have the capacity to love not only other humans, but animals as well. Certainly if you have ever had a special pet, you are aware that the feeling was reciprocated as well.
What is love though? We know when love is present there is a special feeling that we can feel quite strongly. When we are "in love" the feeling is very much overwhelming. Love is more than the feeling that we feel though, it is also a connection between two similar things. It is a state of mind where one is eager to allow the actions of another. It is a state of mind where one wants to share freely with another. Love is a binding force between two things that compels them to come together in complete allowing of differences.
Why does this magical spell only exist between certain combinations of people? Why do some people seem completely detached from this emotion in general? And why do some people seem to flow with love for anyone they meet?
Here we go, the answer is... JUDGMENT! Pretty simple aye? The thing about love is that love is the natural state of our being human. It is the normal setting of being a human. If we did not interfere with our natural state of being, then love would be what we would have. Love exists when we do nothing. Love is pushed aside anytime we use judgment, be that judgment of another person or of self.
Love does not exclude anything for reasons of judgment. Of all the people you know in your life that you can honestly say you have no feelings of love for them, then you know you have judged these people for any number of reasons. When you judge someone or something you have separated yourself from that person, you have divided yourself from that person, you have cut yourself off from the natural normal connection that is always present. If your judgment was not in the way, then there would be only love. Love is always present, always there. Love exists no matter what. It only seems elusive when we build walls of judgment towards others.
If you want your life to be more loving then all you have to do is stop judging others. This action would immediately remove the walls between you and everyone else allowing you to experience the flow of love that is always flowing. You do not have to do anything to have a lifetime full of love. You only have to allow it to be. Love will not condemn another as some would. Love would not think hateful thoughts of another. Love allows, and allows unconditionally.
It is one thing to make an observation of someone and notice that perhaps their lifestyle is not something that makes you feel as if you want to be around this person. You can honor this feeling toward yourself and at the same time still not judge this person for who they are or how they live their own life.
Love is about understanding that we are all the same, living in unique situations in a billion different circumstances. We can notice that some others may be doing harmful actions to themselves or others. We can hold these people responsible for their actions. We can certainly set boundaries of how we wish to be treated. We can even get annoyed by a person with a specific personality. As long as we use observations, and do not cross over to judgment, then we can still leave the current of love open to flow through us.
Judgment feels bad, you know that you are exercising judgment when you think of someone in a way that makes you feel bad inside. You have projected that bad feeling upon the person you are thinking about, yet the feeling is within you! This is when you have let an observation cross over to judgment. This is when you have unplugged yourself from the natural current of love that flows 100 percent, all the time.
The thing about love is that when we allow ourselves to be connected to this current as much as humanly possible, we are not just feeling better about life, but we are also in harmony with life, with the universe, with God if you will. When remaining in this state of mind, we create tremendous experiences in our lives that seem to come from everywhere. It is as if we are tuned into the power of prosperity directly.
Living in this current of love means that we have allowed the universe to be as it is. We have not separated ourselves from parts of the universe by judging it as we see it in others. This conscious allowing of the universe as it is, allows the universe to provide more and more to you, since you have not closed yourself in behind any self created walls.
Begin to notice your thoughts of others. Begin to notice if you prefer to notice negative things and then think about those things; or notice if you will overlook some distasteful things to find qualities that you can admire, and then think of those things. Spend a day hooking up to that current of love and see how fast it can sweep you away!
