To truly love another, to place their needs before our own…is by far one of the more frightening of experiences. Likewise, it can be the most liberating.
Why?
Because, we are relinquishing control; surrendering an ages old story which has kept us tethered to a misguided truth.
In this space, “I am” becomes an illusion and we are invited to explore our fixed view of self. Immediately, we may feel exposed – vulnerable and raw as our ‘life masks’ are removed.
“How body from spirit slowly does unwind,” Roethke once shared. “until we are pure spirit at the end.”
Perhaps, in this way, love is our only journey? “In this place of light, (we) learn to live.”
In peace, my loves…
Namaste ❤️
