Love seeks no reward, however, choosing to become a channel for love is also to experience love.

From my experience, love is a reward. To love someone is a privilege, maintaining that love, sharing, giving, learning, experiencing togetherness. Put the effort in, experience the reward.

Some people never find the Love they seek. they are full of self doubt
and they think they are unworthy.
I am not speaking of myself but a close friend she has three sons, all by the same father,

Only to find out that one of her sons friend went to her house when she asked who her parents were, she had the biggest shock of her life the friends father was her partner her kids dad.

He had been cheating on her for years, she thought it was her fault a lot of self doubt,
She is still single and she says she will never find real Love


Namaste

You must never de-value yourself because of other people’s actions. Always maintain your self worth. Imagine a twenty dollar bill, what’s it worth ? Twenty dollars. Screw it up tread on it, swear at it, jump on it, kick it. What’s it worth now ? Twenty dollars, after everything it went through, it never lost its worth. Why should you ?

giving and receiving are one. You are the one experiencing all this.

Hello Native spirit and all,

Regarding heartbreak:--

It is not easy for the experience of loving empathy to accommodate feelings of having been abandoned, betrayed.

This difficulty is not --imo--a failing, but is an understandable consequence encountered by all of us who experience feelings of heartbreak, abandonment, betrayal.

Coping with, accomodating, a consequence is not hampered by the same feelings of inadequacy which feelings of having already failed create----but----the way forward is not easy nevertheless.

Simply as a suggestion, personal opinion, a way forward lies along the path of the way of loving, deciding to rejoin the path with initial small and perhaps stumbling steps, using/ reinstating that loving empathy by offering help, activity and support to others, singing with others for the entertainment of others, etc.

There will however be moments of darkness when such propositions seem ridiculous, really not getting it. True for all of us I think.

Cheers. X.

Imo Pure Love is the nature of the oneness of being. It is only in the appearance of the world that love (as unity, completeness and closeness) seems to be something we seek and search for. The world appears as if this Pure Love has separated out from a singularity into a multiplicity. It is then that we feel we have lost love or we seek love.

Imo although choosing to be a channel for love is a step in the right direction, as is treating all with love and respect, we need to go further. We need to recognise that Love is our nature, and it is this innate Love that (when unhindered by human ways) can shine through into the world. A positive human aim is to live in Love and Oneness, so that all there is of 'me' is Love and Oneness.
