@ War with ♡
Love is kind, fear is not.
Love is generous.
Fear is selfish.
Fear comes with conditions, while when in love, there are no conditions or reasons at all.Love is free obligations, fear is full of them.
Love does not expect. Fear does.
Love respects.
Fear respects no one, not even themselves.
Love doesn’t feel sorry for others, but it knows compassion.
Fear pities, fear feels sorry for everyone
These are quotes from The Mastery of Love by Don Miguel Ruiz. This is a wonderful book that I can’t help ,but tell everyone to get. Often you will find quotes from this book on here, because it’s dope.
As, I’m in the final stages of marching on my final campaign in the war of the in between spaces. Life and situations have come to remind me of some important things via these quotes.
I ♡ the concept of how love and fear show up in our relationships via the book.
When ♡ is free and without expectation of how the other person must show up to meet our needs in order to prove that ♡ exist. It removes the cracks through, which the pain of unmet expectations can creep in and wreak havoc in our lives. It relies more on the history of the heart experiences with people. It is a crusfier of the flesh, because it demands that we come from a pure place. What it guides is reflection, redirection, and the ability to perceive the action or inaction from a less emotional place. Operating from this place means that you will be slow to wrath.
Love is kind and fear is not…because it is insecurity along with the need to punish when the obligations/ expectations are not met.
Real love doesn’t pitty nor feel sorry for people,because it is not coming from a place of disrespect. Pity comes from the need to feel as though you are better than xyz. It never comes from a place of true compassion ,which is something only real love and empathy can bring. Compassion is to come from a place of understanding the “it” and to be moved into action from a ♡ place.
When we operate from the mind frame of love respects. We are able to show up & ♡ from our most authentic space, because we allow & have respect for the natural evolution of people as life and personal growth happens in it.
Real ♡ is and can be generous because there aren’t conditions that guide it’s distribution. Real ♡ comes from a true heart place of compassion that doesn’t allow for savior complexes or manipulation to be present. Real ♡ endures the journey and growing pains. It doesn’t run cold when evolution occurs ,because it is ready to bear down in the winter and dance in the spring. Real ♡ brings strength that amplifies the love. It has no motives nor is it fueled by the pain from previous traumas. It is not abusive or misguided.
