Spirit – Releasing the Light Within



               that love for itself, particularly if it is not feeling loved. When
               we look at how little we understand love, how can we expect to

               know the feeling of love? Often when we spiritually meditate
               we experience feelings that are strange to us. Because of these
               feelings we are very often moved to tearfulness. These are tears

               of  joy  and  happiness  brought  on  by  the  experience  of  the
               Divine flow of Love, Love from God, the Spirit, to the Spirit

               that is the true us. The closest we can get to that feeling through
               our ego is when the heart feels it. This is why the advice is often
               given to go with ones heart.

                       The  human  has  become  so  desensitised  to  the  real
               power of love that it uses the word indiscriminately. This word

               carries a power that can overcome almost anything, overcome
               almost  any  resistance.  Unfortunately  for  the  desensitised  it
               becomes a weapon to gain control over another. It can be used

               to  lull  another  into  a  false  sense  of  security,  making  them
               vulnerable. It is perfectly safe to be a loving human being once
               one  knows  what  love  is.  Once  one  becomes  re-sensitised

               through spiritual awareness and practice then one can safely
               enjoy what love really is.
                       It is easy to love, harder to accept love. The older one

               becomes the more mistrusting they become of the term love.
               Because they have trusted situations in which that word was

               used and been hurt as a consequence, they become closed to
