Love Beyond Conditions (and Conditioning)

Love moves without an agenda.
​ It just moves because that is its nature to move.

It is often talked about, about loving another without conditions, like a mother or father loves their child.   How about allowing our own heart to love without conditions?

Many of us do not let our love flow freely unless certain conditions are in place. 
 
Conditions such as:

I will share my love when I know it’s safe.
I will share my love when I know it won’t be rejected.
I will share my love when this other person validates me, first.
 
These conditions cause us, to hold back our love.  Love, the source of Life.  Love, the essence of Source. 

We deny OUR true selves when we deny love flowing freely.

"To be free of fear is to be full of Love".        -Adyashanti

​What this means, is you may share your love, and it won’t be ‘safe’ because you may feel rejected.  In truth, rejection is an expression of the ego, and, an attachment to outcome.  It’s also based on conditions.  I give you this, and you give me that.  If you don’t give me what I want, I’ve been rejected.

No, your attachment to outcome, has been redirected. 
 
I know these concepts well because I have explored them in my own heart.  I have held back my love when I felt someone may misunderstand me.  I have held back my love for fear of being hurt.  I have held back my love because I was angry.  Until I realized, holding back love, is holding back Source energy.  It’s constricting what moves naturally through us.
However, sharing your true self doesn’t mean attaching to outcomes.  It doesn’t mean your ego self won’t feel vulnerable, unsafe, or exposed.  Share it anyway.  Love anyway.

Soon you will see, that love flowing free, is the truest expression you could ever express.  Let it move through you.  Watch what happens.
