You weren’t feeling their love, because it didn’t exist in the way you thought it did. You weren’t feeling loved by them, because they weren’t loving you
in the way you thought they were. It was all your own love!

Our minds assign our love to a person, as if they were the source of it. But as you have now discovered, they weren’t the source of it. In fact, they were hardly
participating in the process at all. You were the source of the love you were feeling.

This leads us to a further amazing revelation. If you were the source of your love for them, then you’ve always been the source of all the love you’ve ever
felt.

You are the source of your own love. You decide when you're allowed to feel it and when you're not. But the love you feel is always yours. No one can
give you any love you don't already have.

Let’s take this to the next stage. If this person had never been the source of the love you felt, then when they left your life, what did you truly lose? Nothing. Are
you less lovable because they are no longer in your life? Do you have less love inside of you? No. So what’s different? They stopped doing certain things or saying
certain things that had given you permission to feel the love and you concluded: "I don't feel loved by them anymore." Actually, you weren’t allowing yourself
to feel YOUR own love anymore. You decided to stop experiencing all that love because they weren't around to bounce it off of, to focus it on. You were the one
depriving yourself of your own love.

Once you get this straight in your mind, you will allow yourself to feel happy and in love. It was all a game your own mind was playing with itself.

No one gives you love, so no one can take love away from you.

Close your eyes, take some long, deep breaths, and think about all of the people you’ve loved intimately in your life. Some had chosen to leave you. Some you
left. When you focus on all of the love YOU have given you will feel glorious waves love begin to wash over you. Allow yourself to feel the love without trying to
assign it to any one person or give it any meaning. As you do, the love will grow stronger and more intense until you feel like one huge body of love.

This is what it means to be in love.

When you realise that the joy and blissful state you experience when in love, is as a result of YOUR feelings of love and not the other persons feelings towards
you, you will suddenly feel immense power, happiness and freedom. Probably for the first time in your life, it will hit you like a thunderbolt that the love you
feel is YOUR love, that no-one can take away, ever. Embraced by your own love you will finally find your own, true inner companion for life.

When the meaning of this awakening dawns on you, you will never experience love in the same way again. From this point forward, you can enjoy love
as it was meant to be enjoyed, dependent only upon your feelings about it and not revolving around the actions or feelings of another person.
