Waking Up to Love

Waking up to love has got to be the most amazing experience in my life so far. 

No, there wasn't anyone in bed next to me, and no, I haven't fallen for yet another man.  I woke up today feeling love for myself, without condition.  I felt that love from the Creator/Goddess of all things for ME!   I also felt that love flowing from me to everyone and everything in the world.  Peace, love and bright light.

How did I reach that point in my life, and how can I stay there?

Every moment is of love or of fear;  fear of losing love.  The fear is reinforced by our perceptions of the past when we thought we were not loved, by our perceptions of not being loved right now, and by our fear that we won't be loved in the future.

These perceptions of not being loved are based on how we were conditioned growing up, and can carry over from generation to generation as we pass it on.

We are taught that external things are what show us that we are loved.  But the external things are imitations, and they are also short lived.  We are taught that people, things and situations are what define if we are loved which is the core of our happiness.

People change or die, things are stolen, break or deteriorate, and situations never stay the same.  So our ability to be loved and happiness are unstable with this conditioning, and we are consistently kept distracted by them.

That is until we begin our internal searching.  The instability of external things leaves us wanting and we will eventually turn inward for the search.  The amount of time it takes for us to turn inside ourselves is dependant on how long it takes us to surrender our conditional laws of love.

These conditional laws of love vary from person to person because everyone has experienced life differently.  This is another circular pattern that keeps us trapped in fear.  We are taught that in order to be lovable we must be loved by external people.  We are also taught that to love other people they should obey our conditional laws of love.  If this differs by person, and they can often contradict each other, we will find ourselves always letting someone down somewhere sometime.  This explains so much of why we often feel so unlovable.

Only when we realize that we are already unconditionally loved by the Creator/Goddess of all things can we truly surrender all our conditions of love and love ourselves and everyone else unconditionally.

We are held captive by manipulation, from our own ego and that of others'.  I have heard references of a "pain body", but I think I will refer to it as the "fear body".

Once the fear is replaced by love, the dark areas are replaced with light.  There is no need to worry about losing ourselves because the real being inside us is always staying the same.  It is just our awareness of who we truly are that changes. 

Without the perceptions from conditional love laws, we start to see ourselves more clearly bit by bit through new eyes of unconditional love.

Then we can release everyone else from our laws of conditional love and see them through the eyes of unconditional love.

Then we can release things from our laws of conditional love and see them through the eyes of unconditional love.

Then we can release situations from our laws of conditional love and see them through the eyes of unconditional love.

External things are unstable.  Peace cannot be found in instability.  The only eternal thing is the internal unconditional love from the Creator/Goddess.  There peace can be found.

If we keep it simple, love is great than fear, then all the members of our existence will convert to light from darkness, to love from fear.  Our eternal being/soul/piece of the Creator within us, our mind, our heart, and our body will all fill up with love.  Love sparks the Creator within us, brings peace to our mind, joy to our hearts, and health to our bodies.

We are the only ones who limit the flow of love within us by allowing fear to dim our brightness, allowing it to clog our flow.  We are the only ones choosing to limit our abilities by the conditions of love that have been taught to us.  We have formed habits of fear, but we can recondition our thinking to one of unconditional love. 

It takes time to form new habits, but it only takes effort to start.

So I got this place by changing my habits moment by moment from fear to love, and I can return to his moment of love over and over as I make it my habit.  Maybe it is a high expectation to be in that moment 100% of the time, so I will not judge myself when I notice I am not.  That would only be a conditional law of love.  I will instead remember what a wonderful feeling it is to be in the Presence of Love instead of the Pain of Fear and return once again to Love.
