The age old question what is love and how do we tell the difference between pain and love

I wrote a blog on surrendering myself to love and I had someone email me on there experience it was private so Iam not going to share their email but below is my response which I would like to share.

Mmmm love is a very interesting topic since that is all that is real. I don’t think we can comprehend love as it should be comprehended because of how the human brain operates. When things happen to us when we are in a relationship with one another our brains link those experiences to our so called experience of love, when actual fact, those experiences are only there to awaken us up to the desire of a want or a need for more, which ultimately is a life filled with love.

I think the situation with you and your partner is a situation where the 2 of you are reflecting your belief patterns at one another.

We humans have come to condition ourselves and then we tend to expect certain thing from ourselves and form each other in order to “complete” ourselves, when in actual fact we are already complete we are already whole it is just our beliefs that suppress our truth.

It is through the expression and acceptance of our beliefs that we yearn for bigger better and greater and it is through our desire for better experiences filled with love that pushes us to let go of our conditioning.

Conditioning is good because it keeps us in this reality it helps us to experience, but we tend to let it control our every reaction to one another, it makes us make promises we where not designed to keep.

I guess what Ian trying to say is that marriage is not monogamy, marriage is a symbol of unity a symbol where 2 souls decide to share their experience in unity together and with Source. It is through marriage that we connect to Source, however if the intention of the marriage is not unity but instead is based on a belief pattern then we force each other to make promises.

Love is a natural state of being, whether it is you loving yourself or a an infinite number of people, it is an expression of Source.

So no! love can not hurt. It is our belief that when we surrender ourselves to another we are giving ourselves up but in fact it is at that state of surrender that creation birthed and grew and expanded it was in that state the creation will continue to grow.

Do not punish yourself for loving others, but in saying that do not use love as an excuse for your beliefs.

Love, peace and blessing
