PICK UP MY SIGNALS

Love is awareness
“No one is longing to meet a desperate, needy, angry, withholding, controlling person. If your beloved is out there they can’t pick up your signals if you’re dwelling in those spaces within yourself.”— Marianne Williamson
Many dwell in such places and are surprised when their attempt to create heaven on earth or attract their perfect love fails. What they don’t understand is that love cannot dwell in such toxic places, in fact, opposite of love lives here - the kind that damages the mental, emotional and psychological life of self and other. But this is not love to begin with. Love doesn’t damage, demean, harm or annihilate the other. Love in its purest form redeems, expands and makes whole. It calls forth the soul and as soul dances with love, this alchemical union brings unimagined possibilities of self, perception, and experience on the level of form.
In truth, people seek love, or better yet soulmate love, not for love per se but for the need to feel complete. What this implies then is that incompleteness is the driving force, the motivating factor and not love. We disguise our dysfunction or selfish aims by claiming we are looking for love when in fact ‘love for love’s sake’ is not what we seek. What we are seeking and trying to find is someone/anyone to relieve us from a life of emptiness, loneliness and suffering - the very things that we need to rectify for ourselves. It is not the job of the other to carry the burdens of our destiny that we have failed to understand and balance. The other is not our ticket to coast through life avoiding the lessons we are required to learn.

Lack of self knowledge is the eternal author of human drama and suffering - and the antidote to all this madness is awareness of self. And awareness is love.
I love, say it with me, I love, I love, I...
